Maybe he's a secret admirer of Casey and wants to win on a Ducati, just like his hero

Is that the Ducati who won Aragon 2010 with a faster race time than the Honda this year?

No they removed the remote control when Casey left Barry, thats the problem.

I can only take so much whining before i snap. I just cannot wrap my head around anyone who does nothing but ..... and complain and constantly telling me how bored they are. If you ....... bored, find something that doesnt bore you. I will just go ahead and make predictions for the next 4 races. Stoner fans will be happy, Rossi fans will not, Curve will be bored, and Lex will continue to push for spec racing, then say he didnt..

Whether or not the race was boring is in the eye of the beholder. But one thing is for sure. FIVE ....... PAGES OF DEBATING WHETHER OR NOT THE RACE IS BORING IS THE MOST BORING THING EVER.
My point is that you have declared the post above gold because you liked the conclusion (the colour), but you failed to realise that the statement was worthless (like piss).
i understand your choice of words, there's no need to dissect and explain !
See to me you having to explain your point is a worthless comment and therefore taking 20 secs out of my life i will never retrieve.
In the future i will try to align with your way of thinking in deciphering what constitutes a worthless comment, dang it.

I think thats more to do with your boy Casey. You cant tell me that the Ducati is a good bike, seriously?

Indeed, even he is now saying that they are going backwards. You know if his shoulders start to drop then its really bad. Sucks for both him and Vale...
I can’t think of any recent cases where a factory rider in the top 3 was replaced by someone 6-8 in the standings, satellite bike or no. Factory riders leave and are replaced (Rossi by Spies, etc.), but a top-3 rider isn’t fired and replaced by a mid-pack rider.
The last thing I saw was that Pedrosa was about 4th in the salary ladder with a few of million per year (which is appropriate for a fast rider who’s yet to win a WC). If Marquez were to make the jump to the factory team, I doubt he’d do so at a bargain-basement price.

Its happening right as we speak. Dovi [3rd] will lose his seat to the rider who sits in 8th . Is that recent enough.

Dovi was effectively replaced by Stoner this year -- his third factory seat was never going to last longer than Honda's reluctant honoring of its contractual obligation. Once you get to 4th in the standings (which is where Pedrosa will eventually put Dovi and that's clear to HRC), all bets are off.
Also, Dovi and Simo are both factory riders, so it's not that Simo is replacing Dovi so much as Simo keeping his seat and Dovi losing his, which was never going to last anyway.
