  1. It appears that Lin Jarvis is saying he better increase his pace or he won't have his contract renewed, whilst Jorge is safe. Doesn't surprise me

  4. Thing is how do you go from being no1 to an also not quite there rider? Must hurt. Yet doohan won his last when he was 34? Got to hurt.

  8. Nope not yet but I can't see either MM or JL leaving their current berths so that may leave vale and ped. Ped for a back up rider to MM? Vale? Commercially good but his star is waning to be over shone by MM. I do love vale but I think age, adaptability and poss sic have left there mark.

  9. Et could be right but till this season he could blame the duc, now he has nowhere to hide, get rid of jb tick, tyres mmm can't blame the bike now. I think he should poss admit defeat and retire gracefully rather than keep being 4th with the odd exception.

  12. I predict at the end of 2014 Rossi will retire, Pedders will be out of Honda and I think if Jorge gets beat by Marquez next year he'll be on Pedders RCV in 2015 team mate to Marquez.

    If it wasn't for a misunderstand last time around Jorge would have been on the RCV now lets not forget.

  13. I think Rossi will retire before the end of the 2014 season.

  16. My prediction - JL to Honda with the return of Stacey, Rossi and Pedrosa at Yamaha and Marquez to Ducati after refusing to toe the Honda company line :biggrin:

    Ahh well we can dream i guess. But just how awesome would it be to see MM on the Desmo?

  19. I think Marquez is young enough, fast enough and brave enough to make it work.
