GPOne said:
"The Iwata manufacturer has asked to be able to unseal its engines to replace valves afflicted by a manufacturing problem. The manufacturers' association has decided to take time to analyze the case and in the meanwhile the M1 has lost 300 rpm"

2020 as an * season just keeps on giving. Yamaha gotta stop buying Chinese valves. Maybe the valves have Covid 19 and that's why their engine can't breathe.

Not Impossible to keep winning in 2020, but the Iwata Guys aren't making it easy on their Riders.

Not triggered.

One could argue that Vale would have more championships had Lin Jarvis not brought Borenzo into the garage as his teammate. Both in the head-to-head in the same garage and the departure to his dry years at Ducati.

Then again...

Lin Jarvis let Vale come back to Yamaha from Ducati, so I guess that counts for a a little positive.

So, yeah... To apply the Chernobyl quote to Lin Jarvis; "Lin is like 3.6 roentgen, not great, not terrible".

I haven’t watched it yet. Why no times posted for Pol or Binder in FP2?

Because of Puig and Zarco and Jarvis and MM all conspiring against KTM.

Or maybe due to part of the track being really wet from localized rain before the session which caused a lot riders to sit out the session or wait until the last few minutes to go out. Most only did a handful of laps.

Dovi either goes to Aprilia in place of Iannone and if Nakagami still hasn't signed, there's LCR Honda.

Imagine if Dovi went to LCR Honda on a Factory Bike. HRC would have taken 2 potential threats to WinOrBin and brought them in-house.

Another possibility the announcers hinted is Iker gets 86'd and Dovi takes a KTM seat.

Herve Poncharal said just yesterday that they were keeping Lecuona at Tech3 and we know KTM is committed to their talent pipeline. On the other hand, its MotoGP and anything could happen. Two former Ducati Factory riders at Tech3 KTM? Dovi is a Red Bull athlete so maybe the money would be there.
