Mayhaps around your parts they didn't supply those Connect-The-Dots books as part of the curriculum for teaching basic progressional intuitive logic at the five-year-old level. Nothing to be ashamed of. Lots of folk have gaps in their education.

Trouble is you connect the dots that you imagine are there. I comment on what WAS said. Not what i THINK he means. Difference between a fan and non fan i suppose. guess where all guilty of that on occasion .

Crutchlow is expanding his criminal repotoire.

First assault and now hes moved onto burglary.

win win situation if you think about it. He robs a rich team for his brakes and gets away with it he has what he needs. If he gets caught and arrested he and this issue will be on every front page and news station around the world

I bet Dorna would pay for the bloody brakes just to keep it out of court

In one of the earlier interviews he said plain and clear that the Moto 2 and 3 teams were not allowed to park in the paddock anymore.

You been to enough races and seen the size of trucks for the big teams and the sizes of the gargantuan hospitality centers to put

two and two together. Doesn't take the Amazing Kreskin to figure out what that means.



May the peace of Allah be upon you.

Well put it this way, Laguna seca a track i know your familiar with. We walked through the paddock are and not only was there room for the hospitality, if you remember the ama boys including our boy benny were parked there. I didn't get to see the paddock at the other tracks ive been to so cant comment on there size. You seem more informed on this than me so maybe you can tell me the track paddocks hosting motgp you have been too and there size. Maybe you could also enlighten me as to how much area the hospitality suites took up in these paddocks?
 
I will be one of the .......s enjoying some hospitality at Silverstone. Don't hate me

At Laguna Seca we walked through the vendor area - which is not the same as the paddock where MotoGP guys park their stuff.

Now your being pedantic. The other teams were hardly in hotels were they? Paddock / vending area is just where they erect the bloody fence.

What about the questions i asked you ? To be as out spoken as you i would assume you have visited many track paddocks? If not how can you join these dots with such confidence you mock me for not doing so.

I have raced at Daytona, Summit Point, Pocono, Loudon, Road Atlanta, Mid-Ohio etc - so know a little about the politics of the paddock.



MotoGP tracks? Only Laguna and a few times at Daytona when they used to run what used to call the "Formula One" race in the days of 500cc two strokes. The area open to the actual teams has always been more exclusive and has been a much smaller area. When I raced AMA-CCS endurance races (at Daytona) only the full out AMA Superbike guys and pro-licensed F2 and BOTT guys got to have a garage space in the actual live paddock. Championship Cup guys like me had to do all wrenching etc out in grassy parking area and were only allowed access to the paddock for inspection by scrutineers and to enter pitlane during practice and the actual race.



Funny now that you mention it. I didn't see all that many AMA teams parked in the Laguna vendor area, as compared to how many teams were actually there to compete. I reckon a limited number of non-GP guys got spaces in the vendor area and that vendors who could be expected to take bigger lots and pay much more money would get priority when it came to assigning spaces. Maybe Jum could ask Benny to comment.

The Paddocks differ in size depending on the track.

At Jerez there was a spur at 90deg to the pit row exclusive to GP hospitality roughly at pit lane enterance,

Running parallel to pit row opposite the supply trucks running the length of the paddock is moto2 and moto3 hospitality.

The GP riders motorhomes are parked outside to the rear of the paddock with there own security.

That was in 2010.

As a comparison for last year,

At Silverstone the paddock was split.

The GP riders motorhomes and GP hospitality were the only ones in the actual paddock, maybe a few of the larger moto2 teams had hospitality units there,

But the majority of the lower class paddock was over the access road outside the paddock on the inner airfield which for me had much less security.

Hope that helps

...... tent. It might have been one of those quick pitch things but it took a ...... lifetime to get back in the bag.



In my defence, it was quite a heavy night preceding the tent take down...Stella, Merrydown, woods and the stuff in ya little plastic box Philip !
