is rossi to blame? legit question cuz i never stayed on top of the tire brands war

good tweet from dennis noyes earlier today...talking about how ........ it is for dorna to be sitting these guys (i.e. sic/pedrosa) together at the press conference knowing that .... could boil over. said they need these things resolved off camera before someone else gets hurt.

Similar conditions to Jerez.......Bridgestone once again providing a brilliant selection of rubber, to be honest I feel ripped off, I would hate to imagine what it would be like for the fans who've made their annual pilgrimage and spent up big. The big question once again, when will someone make Bridgestone pull their finger out and provide some useable options in varying weather conditions, do they just figure its going to be warm and sunny every round?????

I believe there is a intermediate tyre option but if a rider requests it, it has to be available for all teams. I'm not a fan of the single tyre rule and not trying to start .... but that's what certain riders wanted.

Lorenzo 2 lightning laps at the end. Maybe yamaha have found something.

....... Dorna are hopeless (EDIT). The motogp.com video coverage continually broke up for me in Sydney.

OT; I gave up on the Dorna feed several years ago. There have been reports from all around about crap feeds, zero replies to complaints, and no resolution to the problem. There is no consistency, with a reasonable feed one week, and .... the next.

I think it may have something to do with the deal they have with the Akamai servers they use, but after several years of disappointment, I just gave them the flick.

Why pay good money for no service and not even the courtesy of an apology

BOT; I'll be interested to see the race setup lap times, especially from the afternoon session, but bloody hell, that is quick from Lorenzo.

I had problems view too. Stupid .......s. Only Dorna can get you to cuss, eh. haha Btw, I sometimes get it to work if I try a different route. For example, I tried clicking on 'latest vids' nothing worked except highlighted video. But when I tried 'live video' it took me to another page and then it worked.

Ok, about qual. Uhm, Ducati...they'ze fooked.

Also, Karel, can anybody sill doubt he belongs in GP. Been the fastest qual for three events now (well except this one cuz Nicky barely edged him out but you get the picture).

GP11.1.46 I doubt is to blame. I think Rossi is a bit down with the absence of Burgess. Which makes me wonder how much credit should burgess get for those multiple titles.

Jlo is gonna have his work cut out for him if he wants to make this a race, hopefully he can reach Casey before he's able to build a big gap and we can see some racing. It's a good thing ducati decided to bring out the 11.1/12 early because it's going to need a lot of work and I wonder if the GP12 lap times would even be competitive here.

Sideshow Bob for the win, or at the very least, a strike.

According to a poster on crash.net (so in other words don't read it as gospel) Alex Hoffman apparently stated Rossi did a best time of 1:48.5 on the GP12 at the recent Mugello test - so he still would have been around half a second off the leader in FP3 and Stoners pole time.

Rossis time was also set in hotter conditions.

Rossi says "we have a problem with the front" Oh really, I presume he's on a Ducati....
