I dont think Burgess would go anywhere near the current Yamaha garage.

Until Rossi jumped on their bike it had been 12 years since they won a championship, thats a long break if its cyclical.

I do not agree with your sentiment that Rossi milked anything regarding Simoncellos' demise. He certainly did not milk anything, in my opinion. If I could gauge my sense of loss against Rossi; himself the loss must of felt it in tonnage. I had a heavy heart and felt I lost one i'd known vicariously. And it affected me greatly.

There was a Valeban clone known once as Synn
Disposed of at birth in a bin
One day he and his posse
Went to blow Rossi
Sadly Uccio just came on his chin
One other thing about Zarco is that he really does seem to prefer the soft tyres and, as a result, does suffer with longevity issues i.e. Qatar.
However if they can last the duration, then he is in with a chance of winning i.e. Argentina
As Hollywood said, he can afford to take those risks.
The factory boys need something that will work everywhere. They need consistency to win the title, not just the odd race.

Zarco had a tyre failure issue in Qatar. He's been able to make the soft option work well at other circuits though.

A second is a huge deficit and Yamaha is nowhere near that far behind. You take qualifying for the rest of the season and there won’t be 2/10 between them . Race pace would average less than 3/10ths.
Selective quoting to change the meaning of the actual sentence is exactly what I expect from you lots.
Try again.

I think we agree on most things motogp,I too dislike Rossi immensely, bordering on hatred lately which probably isn't a good thing,i don't wish him dead though,i like to see him crash out of races but only if he gets up and walks away,any death in this sport i love is too high a price to pay,at the end of the day it's a dangerous sport and fatalities will happen but lets not wish them on anyone.

Are you referring to me? If so, let me take this opportunity to say you don’t know squat about GP if you think the Yamaha is a second down to the Honda and Ducati. All you’re doing is trying to build in the Rossi excuse 2018. Rossi might be a ....... second slower but the Yamaha is nowhere near that slow.
I guess you were out getting a lobotomy during the tests.
.... off with the rossi straw man argument. All you moles went quietly underground after Qatar only to resurface after the DNF in Argentina.

synn doesn't actually know anything about GP. He thinks Ducati only suffered when the 1000cc formula was introduced. Tells you he has no idea about Ducati and the 800 formula's trials and tribulations.
No point in trying to educate him since his minuscule brain only has time to spend on uttering weak insults while dreaming of being sodomized by Rossi and Uccio.

I think the proof of the pudding will be once the racing hits Europe, or, as I have heard it referred to before, 'the ground war.'
If the Yamahas are adrift in places like Le Mans and Catalunya, then they have a problem. But I don't think they will be, they were close in Qatar, ultimately time will tell.
