The coverage from Eurosport for both BSB and WSBK is superb IMO

On a side note - For those of you who enjoy getting the 'inside scoop' from in and around the MotoGP paddock I'd really recommend the Paddock Pass Podcast it's absolutely fantastic.

Is it money or arrogance that has made Lorenzo go Red, I suppose its probably a bit of both

I'm swithering on whether to cancel BT Sport. Its down to the next two meetings, if they don't entertain I'm gone. I'm struggling t justify £250+ a year for something that isn't entertaining me, not even the smaller classes.

WSB has been far more entertaining. I'm also enjoying WSS, its always nice to have a hate figure in your life

I reckon JL will want to prove he can do what VR couldn't. Plus he is not a happy bunny with the way Yamaha handled the soap opera of last season.

Unfortunately Smith has already made his move and signed to KTM but stranger things have happened.

How about either Dovi or Iannone , whoever gets booted out

There is a possibility. However, Yamaha are quite keen on the idea of getting a young-gun onto that seat like Viñales, looks like Pol will miss out again unfortunately. Lin Jarvis has hinted at getting Alex Rins into Tech3 with a view to slotting him into the factory squad eventually but again just another day in the silly season of MotoGP!

That's' a shame Smith has been doing a good job on the Yamaha.
Maybe they could twist Stoner's arm, it would definitely put the cat amongst the pigeons

I think Stoner has had enough at the top level,pretty sure he's happy with the odd outing and development work,he's been riding for more years than HE can remember !!!

CS won't race again, even the Ducati CEO has ruled that one out. I'm sure CS is happy enough to dabble in a bit of testing work now and again on the Desmo, he did make the two Andreas look rather silly in the pre-season tests with his pace!
