last race where track temperature was rising a lot...
tyre were dropping overall gripp (tyre compound overheated)


would benefit of smoother rider....

thats why #JL99 can be on the podium.....



and thats why #kip89 already racing infront leaving #pescao55 behind... (atleast untill kip falls)

this michelin tyres performance can varies so much it seem..

i think michelin since beginning their race tyre is quite weak on hotter temperature.....(they favour if the race is held on colder temp.)


good for us to see the interesting races where rider managing their tyre vs rider who is going all out and struggle....

i have sad

Macam jatuh ditimpa tangga the team.

Tweet from VR46(translated ffom Italian)

Nicky is one of the best friends I've ever had in the paddock. We've been team-mates with Honda in his rookie year, 2003, when he was a young debutant in his first European experience. That season ended with the title for me and with his first podium at Phillip Island.
After a few years we fought against each other for the 2006 World Championship until the last race and in the end, unfortunately for me, he beat me and became the champion of the MotoGP world. After the race we shook hands and embraced.
Later we were team-mates in the difficult years at Ducati, when several times we fought to the end, maybe to win the last place in the top five.
Nicky often came to the Ranch, where it was always great to see him and try to capture some secret battling together, because he is one of the fastest flat trackers in the world and before going to the asphalt he won the most important American Flat Track competitions com And the Peoria TT.
The most beautiful thing I have about him is when he came to shake hands with me after the unlucky race of Valencia 2015, on the lap of honour. For him it was the farewell to MotoGP, I had just lost the world title. His supporting look from inside the helmet is one of the few positive memories I have of that day.
For Nicky, we're all with you.

Doesn't look good for Hayden: serious brain damage!
