I wonder if they will add more cross members/ wings inside of those huge holes in the upper. And add even more "hidden" winglets along the sides like Yamaha. Also, no holes in the tail sections yet like on the current production Yamahas. My point is- on looks alone it could get a lot worse.
I remember reading somewhere that even with the cut-outs on the levers one rider needed the bodywork modified to avoid the wind drag pushing on the brake lever. It was a few years ago. I just wonder what unforeseen implications there could be, then having only one other try to get it right with the rules.
Can the design change throughout the year. I thought they have to be finalized before the first GP. As in no modifications either internal or external once the season starts.
They have to homolgate a fairing design to start the year, then they can introduce I new design at any time during the year. That's it. Kinda reminds me of a Ferrari Enzo from the front.
Almost looks like they don't need lever guards anymore with that monstrous front end. https://www.superbikeplanet.com/ducati-prepares-steel-fat-shaming-new-motogp-fairing/
What happened? I haven't been to any news sites because I haven't watch the SSP race yet. MotoGP didn't have anything.
Pretty much self-explanatory http://www.roadracingworld.com/news/motogp-maverick-vinales-completes-sweep-of-pre-season-tests/
Thanks. I've stayed away so as not to spoil the SSP race. Times aren't terrible. 1 sec back from AI but they need to take a big step. Hopefully by mid season they will have taken that step. On a positive note, they aren't doing any aero designs this year so they could wind up being the best looking bike on the grid by the first GP.
Head over to motogp.com if you want to see Suzuki's version of the Hammerhead. They have it, but it looks like a droopy faced fish, not a shark... As far as the Ducati fairing, "form follows function". If it works, go with it...
