    Michelin Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix 2018

    So late in the week and no race thread started (that's the problem with back to back race weekends I suppose) I thought I'd get one going. So what's the predictions?? Apart from the early mornings, this for me is always one of the best races of the year. Sometimes because titles are sewn up...

    What, Rossi fast in QP?! Is it Michelin, Luck, or Luca?

    I think this is among the most interesting news so far -- Rossi has been in the first row for three consecutive races. Even on pole. Has he then cured the nagging problem that has been his biggest handicap since his return to Yamaha in 2013? And how? I was patiently waiting for someone to begin...

    Michelin tires topic

    I figure we can post all tire related things in one topic to see how the Michelin tires evolve over the course of the 2016 season. There's been a lot of grumbling about the front tire not being as strong as the Bridgestone front was, but I think this is more of a case of the usual bitching...

    Michelin v Bridgestone

    THE MICHELIN PHILOSOPHY, A NEW CHALLENGE FOR THE MOTOGP RIDERS - PecinoGP Not a bad article. It's true that the Michelins were not ideal for CS27. I think DP26 will be the biggest beneficiary. I think MM93 will crash a lot, then eventually clock it. Thoughts?

    Michelin etc.

    Rossi crashed during the Michelin tests at Aragon. Lorenzo, wisely, refused to test. In the previous test all of them crashed: Marquez, Lorenzo, Rossi. Now, apart from the timing of these tests -- putting at risk riders who are fighting for the title with four races to go -- there are...

    Is there a possibility Michelin will hang around?

    We have heard reports that Ducati may switch their satellite efforts to Michelin tires for next year. Ezy knows that a large part of the fan base is hugely opposed to a control tire. Is there a possibility Michelin may hang around to supply the satellite teams while Bridgestone moves to supply...
