They sure are. Back in my racing days 2 strokes were all I raced. Was the narrow power band made them bucking broncos. Crank the throttle, nothing until it comes on the pipe, then suddenly you find yourself flat on yer ass.

Tech3 is to end its long association with Yamaha at the end of the 2018 MotoGP season.And the hot rumour is that the French team will join KTM and receive the very latest factory machinery in 2019."We’ve been offered a deal, that includes something we’ve been waiting for almost since we started with Tech3 and I couldn’t say no," team boss Herve Poncharal explains below.

Tech3's move also opens up the possibility of VR46 joining MotoGP as Yamaha's new satellite team, should the existing teams agree to a new entry.

If Tech3 are moving to KTM, long associated with Red Bull, it seems likely they will not continue with title sponsor Monster.“To summarize 20 years of an incredible partnership between Tech3 and Yamaha in a few words is a very difficult mission," said Poncharal.

Was it raining or was it poor tyre choice?

Just noticed that now I have to watch for Torres and not Camier

**klong toey** · 24-02-2018, 06:28 PM

No bit cloudy with light winds Rea had mechanical trouble or a tyre issue good that Ducati won.But times for most teams well off the pace.

**Norton** · 24-02-2018, 07:01 PM

Damn. Missed it. Doesn't look I missed much though.

**klong toey** · 25-02-2018, 05:13 PM

Second WSBK due to tyre issues mandatory pit stops.
Top 7 fairly close the rest of the pack way off the pace again.

**tj916** · 25-02-2018, 10:44 PM

Rossi and Vinales struggling in testing on the works Yams. While Zarco is in top three in satellite team using a frame the works boys hated.
Early days I know, but I might have a few quid on Zarco for the championship.
