When the tough get going, Dani goes home!!!!

Sure Michelin are having a crap time of it at the moment, but it ain't going to get better by not having the supposed no'1 rider spitting his dummy out cos it's not going right, just who is supposed address Michelins issues then?

Whats up with todays GP rider are they men or just spolit bloody kids, first Stoner and now Pedrobot....if i were Honda, i'd suspend Pedrobot for two races give his bike to Nakano.

Go back 15 or 20 years i couldn't see Lawson, Schwantz, Rainey & co pissing about like this!

Lack of competitive tyres prompts Dani Pedrosa to quit the two-day test at Brno after just eleven laps.

With just few laps, he cannot possibly test all the rubber sent by Michelin, some riders like Eduards improved at least a bit. Even if there was nothing new related to tyres, Pedrosa should use all the possible testing time to develop the new engine or whatever Honda has got for him. That is the number one Honda Rider? Whatever Rossi left in 2003 is not competitive anymore, Puig should tell him.

Seem to me like exactly what I thought about DP is that he rarely puts in the work to benefit himself. Kudos to Nicky for seeing through this and feign injury, otherwise he would be the workhorse putting in 120 laps for the tyre manufacturer and the Honda techs. I wonder now with the incomplete testing of their new pnuematic bike is the test riders data is going to be any good for them. I would have thought that data from the ace riders would be a better measure rather than same old data from test riders. Oh well you get what you pay for....

lQQking at the Nakano's Gresini Honda's performance, I think there is still much for Honda specially in the two areas i.e.yes ofcourse the tires & the pneumatics.

Would love to see a fully featured Dani Pedrosa on a Bridgestone shod RCV with pneumatic valves in 2009.

And people call Stoner a moaner at least when things weren't going right he tested and tested untill the bike got to working right,Pedrosa has taken his bat and ball home to hug his blanky and sway back and forward in fetal position. I used to think he was Ok but he's just shown his true colours.When the going gets tough the tough get going,or in Pedrsosa's case,and Rossi's,we boo hoo to Bridgestone

Yeah, Michelin are the bad boys and no way I am going to give decent feedback to them now to improve us. I just say again that they suck after 11 laps. That will teach them how to make better tires. My American slave teammate can do the work and when it goes wrong I will blame him. And pneumatics scare me. Now I gotta go for a peptalk by big-daddy Alberto. Everyone knows I am the best. I do not need a WC to prove it.

Don't talk like experts now...

I don't think that Dani decides alone HOW and when the tests are to be done.
It is HONDA who decides.

And yes... since Michelin sucks (that's the SAD Truth) I see Bridgestone the good alternative.

Now again the last year discussions will open with the Single tire rule and the prototyping bla bla, but since the 125 and 250 are more interesting than Motogp, i think they should do something.

if it is just michelin that sucks, how can edwards be up there with rossi's times????
there is obviously something amiss with the set up of the honda, or else pedrosa is losing motivation after his crash.

If he doesn't have confidence in the tyres why risk making his injuries worse.

It's clear Michelin has to raise their game for the next round so perhaps Dani's team think the tyres will change so much that the tests will be relatively pointless.
