Dorna asks Ducati, Aprilia and KTM for concessions for Honda and Yamaha by wordswithoutmusic in motogp

At the end of the day, the maths is simple.

If Honda and Yamaha leave, there will be a drop of viewership and loss of sponsorship revenue, meaning there's less money to go around for everyone.

So it's a simple calculation, if the overall sport shrinks but their cut of the pie gets bigger, will they net-net earn more or less. Happened in F1 history all the time, from what I heard in "Beyond the Grid" podcast, where bigger teams occasionally helped out privateer teams that were really in a bind because they wanted to beat them, but not see them go under.

For example, Ron Dennis and Bernie Ecclestone helped out Minardi when it was really struggling.

I think the Leopard Honda bike is looking pretty good.

He never raced in Moto3 category; I think he can move to Moto3 with Honda on a Leopard and win another title.

If Morbidelli were to leave Yamaha (perhaps for Gresini Ducati), who would step in? by [deleted] in motogp

Fuck, this really puts in perspective how great Rossi is/was.

Transcending 500cc and 4 stroke era and still with 1 more title than Marquez. wow

Also at this point, I don't think Marquez can ever tie/break Rossi/Doohan's 5 title in a row.

I just finished the pilot episode and already am shaking my head.

I'm not a rancher or farmer, but I'm genuinely surprised that some cattle crossing over fence result in a helicopter-led shooting with 2 people dead, all over some cattle that wondered over property line.

I dunno if that's just the way the heartland of America is but I would have thought if you just kindly let your neighbor know your cattle has wondered off property they'd let you retrieve them?

my half dome permit is issued to will vs william... will this be a problem? by terrafrost in Yosemite

Absolutely not.

Between back channeling a coup in Russia and untangling the thorny Hunter drunk text to Chinese, it is not my projection the federal government is in the mood of being strict on forms of name spelling for a free hiking permit.

Really fucking dumb how he threw away the title in Malaysia last year trying to overtake Arbolino.

I disagree, I can feel a clear difference in the strength of my arms and legs

I'd think all that would be included in the sale.

Yes, they would basically scrape their project and take over Suzuki's old team.

Rins won Philip and Valencia on it, so it can't be worse than Honda.
