Think of it this way then - if we all started with unlimited money we'd all be picking Rossi, Honda/Yamaha and Michelins, where would the fun be in that?!

Hondas?! Haha you mean Hayden who's down in 9th!
Ducati are looking good though on the Bridgestones - but i'm also on them! ACE Racing are gonna kick your ... this weekend, i'll leave all the work to Pedrosa, LCR & Bridgestone.

v yamaha's 2.
Can be in a podium position from the third row into turn one if you get a flyer
Maybe you will...but Dakuva Mobile Honda are sure to get a steady start and build up the cash...we'll beat you in the long run
Don't forget it's gonna rain too

I've got a game plan and I may as well tell you now that it's going to be hard for you to change your team now. I am relying on Pedrosa to pick up maximum points for a few races (which is porbably more than what both of your riders are gonna get!), LCR are cheap and may pick up a fewp oints in the mean-while (come on Checa!), Ilmor Engine just to save money at the mo and Bridgestone tyres to pick up some points if a Ducati wins for instance.
Everybody is saying the tyres don't make a difference but come end of the season if you miss out by 2,3,4,5 points it would all be down to the tyres!
Dakuva Mobile have announce they have NO interest in changing the team at this time
The team was drafted up on the 16th of february when the announcement for Dakuva Mobile Ilmor (developement team) was made.
Dakuva have noted that barring lightning striking Honda gaurentee millions every race - unlike De Puniet although we note that the Frog's legs (bike) look damn good this year (awesome green!!). We admit that both our riders are to save money although there is potential for hofmann to get points (though probably not fantasy league points). Bridgestone are the marjority and we are delighted to have them as our contact with the track. Using Tech 3 comes from the fact that Dakuva Mobile have decided that it pretty much has to be anybody but Ilmor (we'd be better off with the tz250 we considered testing pre-season...they go quicker! - see 250 qualifying)
It's been commented that in the opinion of Dakuva's head boss the real championship season will start 3-4 races in when we can make drastic changes after some money has been racked up - that's where it'll be won
We also note that LCR have a big disadvantage due to only have one rider. For example Checa could fight to a respectable 8th but Tech 3's riders could finish just 11th and 12th to gain more points. We do acknowledge, however, that this would require at least 5DNFs
