So I finally had a chance to watch Lemans and I have to say I'm starting to like Lorenzo more and more ech race. But this got me thinking, its clear that even though Rossi and Lorenzo are teammates they sure have some close battles, paint rubbing corner exits etc that usually only occurs with other teams riders. Either way its great racing hands down. But why is it that teams run the same livery? Just like Hockey here in the states, there's a home jersy and an away jersy. Why not the same for teams. Couldn't yamaha offer a white bike and a blue bike. As this would help distance the fact they are actual team mates when in thruth they really aren't. I mean a wall is a wall in the pits right. Rossi has already said this. It would be cool if say the winner on the team got to pick his color for the next round. I know they sometimes have a special livery for races say Laguna, but those are one off's and I like that. I recall Yamaha's 50th anniversary I think it was the yellow white and black, sweet something different. Is there something I'm missing here or a rule that says they cant?
I guess I look back at AMA when it was the Ben & Matt show and man did it get boring watching two suzukis circle the track time and time again, twin bikes up front again, if one of them was at least solid blue for one race it would be a bit more refreshing.
