in terms of equipment, this year is pretty close to how the paddock was organized back in ZOOG... u know, the hay-day that everyone compares every season too because there were 7 diff winners (highly irregular). Bradl and Bautista have factory bikes just like MM and Elias did in 2006. There are actually more competitive Yamahas this year, 3 compared to just 1 which makes up for the lack of competitive Ducs. there is a little less variability (some may say excitement) because of the spec tire, but rly, equipment isnt the issue.

talent is the issue. look at it this way... even if Cal & Jorge and Dani & Bradl swapped bikes, we know who'd still win all the races.

plus acordinmg to ducati the sat team gets the ful facotry treatment and is even testing parts. its all in house now.

and in zoog, it was still one yamaha winning races.

the real difference is that ducati isnt buklding a race winner anymore. in 2006, two different winner on ducs, only one on yamaha. ducati had 5 race wins that year, as many as yamaha

even 2007 saw two different winners on the ducati.

there is something about bradley smith that really gets on my nerves. i think its the way he talks. reminds me of wallace and gromit. i also agree with the statement that his tech3 seat is somewhat of a waste. i could name off 10 other riders that are more deserving of that seat than smith is.

Hello, world!
Just finished watching Moto2 and Moto3. Good racing all around. Every time I watch Qatar, I recall MotoLiam's comments about how weird that place was for the crews, being utterly separated from everything, shuttled back and forth between the track and the hotel, no local fans.

I went and looked up some info on that Qatar today and while I always suspected it was just another little oil-rich country in the Gulf, I was a bit taken aback by just how unapologetically backwards this place seems to be. All work is performed by foreigners with 0 workers' rights (in some cases, they actually allow "exacting forced labor"), appalling rates of workplace fatalities, no income tax for the locals, absolute monarchy, economy fueled exclusively by natural resource exports, etc. Racing is racing of course, and I love it, but sometimes looking beyond the TV screen can be good. In this case, it really left a bad taste in my mouth.

On a brighter note, looking forward to the Austin race, where democracy reigns supreme with no human rights abuses of any kind ;)
