Will be interesting to see if he can resurrect his career.
Interesting to know the once coveted Honda ride might not be anymore other than the $$.
Seems only Marc can ride it and he is even struggling....

Pecco has a grid penalty for the GP this weekend, should be interesting.
Marc and alex fire their manager?
Enea to factory
Remy no ride next year
Some notes from the past week or so.
Bummer about Gardner I had high hopes from him as I'd seen his Dad go around Laguna Seca many times and he was a certified Badass!

season test is over, Yamaha brings a new motor and chassis, speed was only a few mph off of the ducatis. Good news for fabio as he also topped the last session.
Honda brought the 2021 bike? Marc had great pace.. what a comeback he is having. Not the biggest fan but we need him in the sport for sure.
Amazing Grit Marc has.....
Oh and one more surprise for the weekend!
Another tough ol Brit.
I haven't heard the term yard sale since the Todd what's his name days.
Well looks like you must have had a chat with Yamaha engineering....

"a few" ... more like 20-30 down the straight.."
This is Gold!!!
And it looks like I laid the wammy on Fabio.....

That said, I put this on Yamaha, if Quatararo had the power he should have, he would have started further up the grid and likely not been near Marc when he had that moment on the rear wheel.
Pit Row
You know what my point was champ. Go back to swallowing off-season suns garbage
Glad dorna got their boy back. I guess when someone gets really hurt it will be too far?
In my original post I mentioned MPH.
And you came back with 20-30 as a reply as you are my stalker......
What a dumbass 🙄
I hurt your feelings about the suns in another thread and you came into here and brought up a thread post from three months ago?
What good have you done in this forum? From what I have seen, not much.
Been on this Forum since DAY 1 and started many ride/race threads and have had many stalkers in that time you're just the latest one.
Why don't you show your valuable input to this forum other than stating the obvious that the Yamaha is slower than the Ducati.
In fact all the Bikes are slower than the Ducatis Captain Obvious as they have captured the top 5 spots in qualifying the last few races.
I just find it funny about your hatred towards the Yamaha's when in fact it is still the reigning Championship machine even though as you stated it's 20-30 MPH SLOWER!
Oh and BTW I'm not a Fabio fan as I would rather see Alex and Aprilia take it.
You are right, 20-30 was a stretch. From what I have seen and read Yamaha is down 10-20 KM/H or 6-12 MPH (give or take) on top speed at most tracks. I honestly meant km/h, I see I didn't specify so I understand why you laughed at that. All good.
Do you think being slower hurts them or not so much? I think at some tracks it does.
I am a Fabio fan, Yamaha fan, and never owned more bikes of any other brand. It's not hate, I just want them to give Fabio a better package because I think he has a chance to be a great. Maybe not a marc or rossi level... but I think he can win a handful of ships.
Yes it’s amazing what Fabio has been able to do with the underpowered Yami the last few years as it seems the Ducat R&D dept has an endless supply of dough.
I think I remember reading somewhere that they share Wind tunnels with Ferrari and I can only imagine the Technology and resources they have combined. It seems every few months or so they have some new trick Aero design on their bikes and the other mfg's end up copying in some way.
Personally, I’m not a fan of all this high tech stuff as I remember the 500cc two stroke BEASTS that required the rider to have more control of the bikes or otherwise be pitched off the HIGHSIDE in a violent crash.
I believe Yamaha has pretty much gotten everything they can out of the inline 4 without having to risk blowing it up and I can only imagine the frustration Fabio has as he has to ride the bike to it’s absolute limits to compete. It sounds like they are sticking with the design for at least another year.
Last weeks unfortunate incident with the Rollerball Marc (I joke) coming into play sure has made the Championship a LOT more interesting with only a handful of races left.
Wonder what the Ducati bosses were thinking when Bastanini was putting the HEAT ON Peka? Can you imaging if he took them both out as he is about to join that Team!
Do you remember the madman who is banned from competing for a drug suspension ANDREA IANNONE took out his Ducati teammate with a few laps to go! He also cleanout out Rossi that same year!
Quatararo also has to pick his spots, in order to make a pass stick, he's got to do it with enough track between him and the big straightaway to build a gap, otherwise the red rockets will just cruise right back by him. I really hope that the results we've seen the last few weeks aren't Fabio fading. He's been working so damned hard for every spot it wouldn't surprise me if its wearing him down.
