  1. Interesting that Dovi wasn't using the new fairing but JLo was.

  4. I thank you and all the other marshal, medical and other volunteers as without you racing would not be possible.

  9. Pitwalk and Paddock tour saturday. No discs or calipers on mgp bikes for some reason. Tiny single piston calipers on M3 bikes. IMG_6441.JPG IMG_6447.JPG IMG_6449.JPG IMG_6607.PNG IMG_6608.PNG IMG_6610.PNG IMG_6613.PNG IMG_6615.PNG IMG_6618.PNG IMG_6622.PNG IMG_6628.PNG

  10. Could have sworn I saw him with the fairings the other day! I guess he's not using them because they will take away top speed and Silverstone is a fast track with long straights.

  11. He may even have had them on in FP just to check, but where Jlo demands the enxtra downforce feel, Dovi is a real man and just wants the POWER and SPEED :D:astonished::astonished::cool::cool::cool:

  12. He had them on at some point I'm sure. Unless that was at the last race? I would have put money on it but now I'm questioning myself. Only managed to see the first 5 laps or so yet...

  13. I just watched the free practice sessions and race as been on shift all weekend, I only saw Lorenzo with em mate, Dovi donned them in Austria but not silverstone as far as I can see?? :bucktooth:

  14. Makes sense. Didn't see much of this one to have seen him with them on it. Props to him for being able to adapt so quickly to riding with and without the ugly fairing.

  16. Dovi is a smooth rider so I can't see how JL shouldn't see this as a positive.

    If Dovi can do it then JL should be able to, it's all just in JL's head. When it clicks his pace should pick up.

    Having said that I'd never wish to take any title chance away from Dovi, he deserves it and I'll be wishing him well until the end, such a nice fella

  17. Not a fan by any means, but my money still sadly on marquez :thinkingface:

  18. Mmmmm....could Rossi try and help Dovi to return the favour to the Spanish lovers.....

  19. A nice thought but I think A. Rossi ain't that much of a cheat and B. He'd rather win himself. :cool:

  20. Rest assured, if he can't win it he would rather have one of his mates, and after that an Italian ;)
