for a start....he should be glad he is in motogp.

 

satelite teams beating factory teams abit embarrasing la....politics

 

Yup...just only a yr, sadly. With lesser support, and a tick off by beating Stoner, Alex Barros is leaving again. But is not winning on a satellite team proves it's more of a rider than machine?

 

I'm sure this forum would roar if Rossi is riding a Tech3 Yammie, but beating Fiat factory Yammies.

 

It just happened a SF mechanic had been in the Duc d'Antin team for 2 yrs! He gave lots of insights behind the scene.

adding to this, in the race where hayden crashed last year....estoril i think....colin was doing a wonderful job blocking other riders from getting close to rossi in the opening laps of the race....which caused hayden pedrosa and a few other riders to cluster****.....but race was eventually won by elias

That's the damn race that saved Toni's ass in MotoGP.....At least HRC is not so fussy over such incidents (what do you expect when Nicky was tasked to do testing while also trying to win the championship in 06?). But maybe if Repsol Honda not winning anything, we would see some panic quick shuffling of Honda factory seats, ha ha.

 

Is it just me or what? I like to see Satellite rides messing with Factory rides for sure

 

This is what happens when factory manage the teams, not when tobacco company runs the team. Imagine it's the old days with these 4 strokes, mayhem!!! But unlikely....4 stroke GP bikes are too expensive to lease. So....remove traction control and make the bikes cheaper by a small margin
