Thoughts.  Gotta look up how Motogp breaks a tie.  It's happened twice already. Wanna be ready for the final.  
Allred, with zippo in round 1 has a good day and is right in it.
Oldiron gets burned by Rins, with a costly mistake that loses him 25 points
Fat 2 jumps in the lead, but not by much.
Spies lives has all his guys finish, but none place higher than 8th.
motogrady has a brief glimpse of leading, but the Zarco crash costs him.
Mad4 has a good day, putting him in a tie for 2nd.

Top points earner this week, Allred with 44.

Just one point. That’s all it takes to be a champion sometimes.

I would think he was scared.

But,

The announcers said some riders went back out on worn fronts, as they had used up their tire allocation for the weekend.

Vinales had harsh words for the crew when he returned to the box.

Either he was pissed that the setup was wrong, or he was displaying his anger at not having the tires he wanted, or, he was just pissed at himself and projecting.


.

I read that a slipping clutch what got him after the second start.

Enjoy it while you can, buddy.

Any one of my bassackward team can submarine one of your guys next week.

LOL, yep "there's many a slip twix cup and lip".

I have Rossi, the most experienced, consistent, dependable rider out there.

I have Dovi, who is "as mad and hell and not going to take it any more".

And Quartararo, the new kid on the block who is looking for a championship.

I'm feeling confident............

Don't feel too confident, Allred. My boy Binder will do better this weekend given he's had some practice now, assuming he can stay away from guys like mad teammate Pol and Zap 'em Zarco.  Mir is for real and Maverick might get up on the right side of the bed.

LOL, sounds like a lot of ifs & buts!

Thoughts.......low scores for all it seems.  Mad4 and Allred top that list with 21 each.  
Out of a possible 61.  
Mg gets hurt with the Zarco thing.  I'll leave that with that. Vins hurts a few.
You would think Blue could figure out the stoppers, but I guess not.  Bummer to hear about MM.
Hope it's not some kind of nerve issue.

Somehow, mad4 and Allred climb from the basement to the top of the heap this week.

Well, it's 3 weeks off.  
Lot of time to heal.
And heads to clear.
And figure out how to bleed a hydraulic system.

Hey, on the bright side, Vinales looks like he could have a backup career here in the States if he wants.

Way to go Allred and Mad4'!

So why aren't the Yamahas running the 'heavy mass' calipers?

I think the problem with Yamaha's MotoGP effort lies with the manager.


Note: The rain light comes on when the M1 leaves the ground...



I hope I have deep pockets to run this team.

Where's Quartararo when you need him?

And Dovi needs to do better!!

And Rossi needs to pull his damned finger out!!!!

On the brake issue over at blue.

Apparently all of the Yamaha riders are braking harder to compensate for the lack of power.

Plus, Bremco brought out a new generation
of brakes, and all but Maverick are using them.
Maverick it is said did not like the feel of the new ones.
All the others, are using them.

And everyone’s saying they are just going faster, and even the new generation Bremco is just barely handling them.

HAhaaahaaaa!

Time to 'Allred' some bacon slicers onto the Team Yamaha bikes.

Congratulations Allred and Mad4. Enjoy it while you can. San Marino is coming up and both Quart and Maverick do well there and they are my top team runners.
Just hope that they can get the stoppers fixed.
