    Some interesting comments about how the 2023 Ducati probably won't fit his style. I think he has Digi's old engineer so he may be able to help him with that, the same as he did for Digi.

    He's up to speed already in the first 50 mins..... only 0.3 off the quickest time so far out of 22 riders.....

    Early days yet but it looks encouraging..

    Is it just me that thinks the new(ish) MotoGP website is shite? Tried to get on with it for a while but it really sucks on a mobile. I've almost given up on it now and use others sites for the news.

    at his level I’d be surprised if he didn’t get on with the best Bike on the grid, shame he can’t develop a bike and just jumped to the best there is at the moment.

    Listening to some podcasts on the testing it seems MM was a bit sneaky and did 2 x "time attacks" to get some fast times on the board.

    So Michelin in their infinite wisdom took their new development tyre that is supposed to fix the problem that caused the introduction of the tyre pressure rule. It's supposed to be ready in 2025 but people were hoping it may make an appearance later in the 2024 season.

    Problem is that Michelin only took the hard compound version when people were testing on soft, and they only made it available to the factory teams. End result was no-one tried it, at all, not a single lap done on it. Pure genius!

    I read the colour scheme is a nod to Nicky Hayden, nice gesture.
