Patience has nothing to do with throwing your team under the bus in public, while rolling around getting passed by privateers on non-factory bikes of the same brand and finishing 19th.

Isn’t it widely acknowledged that’s lack of transparency within our sport is a problem.

Don’t ever watch F1 if you don’t like being told the truth.

He lead laps, had matching lap times to Jett in qualifying, won a heat race in sx.

Why do you only focus on the negatives?

The amateur system is broken, but too much money being made by "training facilities" for anything to change.

While the focus has been on Prado looking for a way possible way out, I would think Kawi is increasingly open to the idea of him going elsewhere. Yes they want to make it work and win, but this is looking increasingly unlikely. He is NOT helping to sell bikes or improve the brand image. 
I am more than willing to give him time to make it work, but the way he deflects any responsibility for the results is a big red flag. See how today’s motos go.

Kenny just told big Lew that he's almost certainly staying with his current team

Ah, so if Jorge Prado says it than it is "the truth."  Got it.  He has done himself and Kawasaki no favors by deflecting any personal responsibility for his performance.

Whilst you're correct, what if Jorge genuinely believes the bike isn't right (for him)? Are you expecting him to lie or just take the rap for the team who in his opinion cannot produce the machinery he is asking for? Well documented that Kawasaki are reluctant to change... If that is still true & Jorge is frustrated, why would we want him to lie??
