    Maybe it sounds better in the original Spanish.

    Unfortunately I believe this was Liberty Media's doing so it ties to F1 logo better, and was done in 'Murican :flag:

    He’s Hondas newest test rider as of today. They have 3 official testers now.

    Last rumor I heard was Augusto Fernandez was considering taking that position as Cal, well, he likes to crash and injure himself a lot. Shocking...

    Just read Bradl might be gone as a Honda test rider. Nothing official I could find just someone reporting that Bradl thinks he’s done.

    Honda need to do something different. It's clearly not working. According to Mir, they didn't even bring anything new to today's test, just more stuff he's already tried......That doesn't look good. You gotta blame this shit on somebody, why not the test rider? lop off some heads, boost morale :D.

    Don't know why they'd keep him if they have Aleix and Taka now.

    onesixsix Mmm... trash!

    I wonder where the truth is on this. I feel like Mir has a version. HRC has a version. And then there is the truth. If they are really not bringing ANYTHING new, then that's a pretty shocking situation to be in. What's Marini saying?

    Maybe they didn't give him anything to test. I mean they have Aleix and Zarco, and I assume limited numbers of each new part. Who would you give them to after the last two years? :)

    Marini doesn't say much, he knows how to play the game. You're probably on to something re parts though. If limited in parts, the wise bet would be to give them to the guys that brought the bike in under it's own power the most this year. I was curious about his dnf stats so I went looking. He's only seen the checkered flag 15 times for Honda. In the last 2 years combined. 9 this year, and 6 last. Not counting sprints of course.

    Maybe HRC is waiting until next week when they are at Jerez testing again with a few WSBK teams?
