The Luddites were textile workers in Nottinghamshire, Yorkshire and Lancashire, skilled artisans whose trade and communities were threatened by a combination of machines and other practices that had been unilaterally imposed by the aggressive new class of manufacturers that drove the Industrial Revolution.
BTW I am not opposed to innovation. :)

So why not air what you see rather than post a video/picture. Myself I wouldn't say Zarco is trying to tame anything, more learning how to make it work for himself.
 
KTM is the MotoGP equivalent of PSG (the football/soccer team Paris Saint Germain). They think a lot of money will make them winners.

It doesn't work like that tho, nor in MotoGP, nor in football...

Having a humongous budget (read: Red Bull) that was used to buy several top-notch engineers and project managers (several from Honda) is only one ingredient...there's about 100 others :p

Pol Espargaro is doing a fantastic work tho, I wouldn't be surprised if he'd score a podium at some point, but that's the highest KTM can currently aim at, IMHO.

I agree, but not with Pol. This is his 3rd year and KTM's 3rd year, he normally in front of his brother who has been around since the year dot it feels like. They will finish in front of Aprilia this year by some margin I think.
Next year I bet Oliviera will be their best rider.

Compare his performances aboard the M1 as a rookie compared to his performances now.

As a rookie, Smith was burying him, now take a look at whats happening.
His podium at Valencia last year was a fluke, half the field fell.
 
I would say comparing the Yamaha to KTM and then deducing that the Yamaha is the best bike on the grid is idiotic. I get what you're trying to do and guess what? it's been done. Move on.
