Its over for yamaha ,in 2013 MOTO GP

[This old RZ]

read all about it.. Five engines are allowed per rider , per season to maintain a grid starts, any motors used after that require a start from PIT LANE. Which is hopeless.

WITH 12 RACES REMAINING..ONLY 5 RACES INTO THE SEASON

The HONDAS ,are on their 2nd motors

The Yamahas' ALL OF THEM FACTORY AND TECH 3 are on their 4TH ENGINES ALREADY...WITH 12 RACES TO GO!! 75% more races with one engine...NO WAY

The HONDAS are the best engineered engine,and total bike package, you cant tell me all their development hasn't payed of for HONDA..they really have a lot of advantages, again STUPID RULES. And another year of big changes all new to screw with everyone.

Im guessing its going to be a HONDA 1-2, Pedrosa , Marquez..then maybe Lorenzo hes just so smooth..but with Gresini might do a 1 2 3 HONDA sweep by the end of the year?

AND SUZUKI ANNOUNCES ,THEY WONT BE BACK UNTIL 2015

i might put money on it that the powers that control motogp make an exception to the rules.... perhaps a financial penalty to yamaha...

Or Honda manipulate the rules again so they can win.

Could be that Yamaha is playing everyone into thinking they are done! ever think of that?

Doesn't matter now that Lorenzo has broken his clavicle.

Rossi to the rescue!!!! wow wouldn't that be cool. Rossi comes back wins the title gains his mojo back and retires with a big smile on his face

As cool as that would be I don't see it happening unless Pedrosa and Marquez take each other out for the rest of the season

Well if it rains, The Yamahas can easily be at the front Rossi is a great wet wether racer, and Cruthchlow has shown equal greta wet riding skills, as do the Ducatis in the wet.

Rossi is still as good as he was, the problem is..for all those years he was No1 he was never hurt..once he got hurt it was a long recovery and then started racing a little further back in the pack...that's when stuff happens, when your out in front often theres no one to take you out. And his struggles with the brand new rule "another rule change"..hes yet to adapt to the qualifying sessions so hes starting back in the pack, hes been taken out once, and 3 close calls this year that have stopped him from charging,other races have been set up plain and simple.
It would be awesome to see hi win a race, and win at Laguna Seca would be even better. too bad for Lorenzo, a collar bone/ shoulder injury seems to really start a ireversible demise in virtually every motorcycle racer.

Its totally HONDAS season to lose..Now Pedrosa going through what Lorenzo did to Rossi, dealing with Marquez

[tobster]

yup, Yamaha's season is truly over.....not
Ye of little faith (and judgement!!!)

[Badass]

Go Rossi!
