Well Ralf I knew you would argue the point....
What I mean is that I do think Nicky did a lot of development on the Honda's but there had been talk of Nicky walking into sweet setup.
I believe that he did not. I have read that he had worked on a number of different setups chassis and engine designs sometimes to the determent of his own points chase.
Now that they are they are on the same team and both have done so much development riding there should be some good communication and hopefully good results
