and it begins in the repsol garage

“The race Marc did was amazing, especially after that massive crash he had on Friday and also Saturday he was not fine – said Pedrosa to Catalunya Radio – But as we know he copied our bike setup. They gave him all the information we had gathered in order to improve traction and that certainly made things easier”.

Maybe I'm reading inbetween the lines much but...

time for a wall.

its a legit concern when both guys are fighting for wins and titles. the hard work of dani's team is being co-opted by another team (if its true). its true that marc was crashing like crazy and all over and then suddenly he as good lol

same reason I agreed with the wall for Jorge and rossi. and dani and nicky, because dnai in fact was winning off the bat.

Not as fast as I look.

Pffft. It's just Dani being nervous because he sees another Stoner next door. And worries that MM really is faster. Two races, now, Marc has been on Pedrosa like white on rice, and he DOES find a way around him on matched machines. I would be nervous, too.

I don't recall Stoner ever taking Pedro's data because he's having a bad week.

Why would he? He ran a completely different style. You are assuming that what Dani said is true. And even if it is, it still doesn't change the FACT that MM passed DP TWICE - once for the lead, and now for second. Looks to me like all things being equal - Marquez is faster.

dani has 2 wins to MM's one, and no dnfs to mm's one. dani has more points. how does that equal faster?

Doohan used to bitch about HRC who would take Doohan's settings and give them to anyone on a Honda.

And then Doohan would obliterate them all anyway. :laughing

Funny how the old guys "bitched" and now the aliens "whine". Dani's a great rider but needs to sack up and quit blaming.

If Dani crashed at 209 mph in practice, you can MFing bet he'd be stealing settings from his teammate too. :teeth

I don't blame Dani or MM, but dang, quit with the whining about it and just get on to putting the wall up and racing.

It rained so the first day of the test was a waste, no Biaggi setting hot laps on the Duc.

Finding your way around and then crashing doesn't count.

Yep. I heard it best last season when Julian Ryder said Dani was the better rider, Stoner was the better racer.
