<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;1) Lorenzo (I think he has sufficient motivation from not winning it all last year, plus if anyone can extract the max from a Yam bike to battle HRC, it's him)
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;2) Marquez (I think he got way too lucky staying upright during races last year, I think he'll have more DNFs this time around)
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;3) Pedro (His feet are practically glued to this podium position now)
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;4) Rossi
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;5) Bradl
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;6) Bautista (only because he has factory machinery)
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;7) Smith
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;8) Dovi
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;9) Crutchlow
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:12px;10) P. Espargaro

If Yamaha can't figure out a way around this 20L fuel limit, Lorenzo may be in trouble. Otherwise, I see Lorenzo and Marquez trading wins back and forth during the season, with Pedrosa collecting what has to be a record number of third-place finishes. 

 


I predict a Spaniard will be on the top step of every round and the rest of the world will find it boring as bat .... and switch off.


 


I also predict I will watch less than 50% of the races and will add about 50 comments to my total for the year with 90% of them in the AMA SX/MX thread.

1 - Lorenzo


2 - Marquez


3 - Pedrosa


4 - Rossi


5 - Bradl


 


I will still watch every race of the season barring the one's where I have to get up at 3 in the morning.


Having said that I still prefer to watch superbikes at the moment. It's just a little less predictable & the machinery is a little closer to equal.


Still enjoyed Moto2 & Moto3 last season as well. Some great battles during the season in both classes.


Perhaps I'm a little more "glass half full" than some here.

Lorenzo stays healthy and wins the title.


 


1. Lorenzo


2. Marquez


3. Pedrosa


4. Rossi
