How trick is that R 1 ?

 

^that is my new backround

why did Yamaha toss in the towel already?

 

Mechanical ( engine overheat..).

There's another R1 in the lead though ( Yamaha Austria ).

 

Pridmore's team is 65 laps down in 27th place. Anyone know what happened?

 

He crashed @ La Chapelle ( right hander after the Dunlop bridge)...on the

wet....3 am

 

my friend rides bike number 95, his team was the world champion in super stock last year.

 

It came back to the pit lane after nine laps with a rock in the radiator. Took about eight minutes to swap radiators, and again that much time to fill up with water which suggested head gasket was done. Went out for a lap, confirmed it and parked it. Months of preparation flushed down the toilet in 30 minutes.

Funny thing is, I had to send an e-mail to the radiator fabricator a couple of weeks ago to assure them that their logos would be on the transporter by the time it got to the race. Not sure how they feel about the attention now.

But seriously, even when I was racing I had never felt so gutted about an incident that did not involve someone getting hurt.

 

Carbon fiber frame?

 

I didn't hear his name mentioned even once. I did not know he was in the race. What was he riding? The KTM?

 

Yamaha is defintely striving for world domination. I'm still a SERT fan, dunno how many races they plan to do this year.

 

They only had one bike this year. And I don't think they are doing the whole championship, but I could be wrong on that. They are definitely doing the Bol d'Or. The team manager issued a warning on TV to the competition in French slang that can best be translated by "ass kicking."

 

Gooooooooo qatar endurance team is second lol on the Superstock class

we have one french rider - one japanese rider - one local rider

on the future it will be 3 local riders

Note: at least we sponsor the event hahaha i think its better we sponsor the AMA from DMG

and HPPT u will be the ama director if we sponsor it

 

Yamaha.

 

He's Ribalta's teammate on BK Maco Moto. They were P7 @ hour 11. And then Pridmore chute sévèrement à la Chapelle.
