I never thought I'd say this about a top Japanese bike racing boss, but I quite like this Furusawa. He comes across quite well, bit of a sense of humour and isn't shy with the technical info. Also, when was the last time a HRC official (for exmaple) said he had respect for a rider's style and wouldn't ask him to change it to suit the bike unless he had to? (As Furusawa said about Lorenzo).

be interesting to see if the other teams have found more or less than the 5 extra horsepower yamaha will have this weekend at Jerez. Guess we'll be able to tell by seeing if the top speed order (factory bikes) is still roughly: 1) Ducati 2) Honda/Kawasaki(?) 3) Suzuki/Yamaha.

Kim Jones;I have never claimed anything about Casey Stoners Traction Control,if you click list topics and go"Toseland Riding a Wave After Island Third"which was the topic 13 days ago if you then go to page 2 of this thread you can read a report that I made about the riders that were at the Island,I hoped the report was objective,but the thing that seems is bothering you is about Traction Control which I never made a comment on,I haven't a clue whats got up your nose about me and Stoners Traction Control,believe me I have never made any comment on your pet hate(besides me for no reason)Stoners TC,of course you won't look up the report as I doesn't suit you.Some people did appreciate it. :? :?

JH; if you do get Jerez can you do a report for us in far away places, the final day would be ideal,if I could be so bold and suggest a general report and not of the flying laps on qualifiers, I am sure I would not be the only person that would appreciate it, of course you will get the odd bodd that will find something wrong with your report, but then thats the price of fame ;) ;) ;) ;)

Not sure I can get there now, sorry. One of my staff has just called in sick for a week and I am going to have to hold the fort. Does the test go on until Monday (including motogp) or is it just 125 and 250 then? I think it will be Monday at best for me. :rolleyes:

Saltbush..I also had problems getting on today with time-outs even using different ISPs. Not sure what the problems were but it does not seem to be a reliable site at times, then again I do not know the financials re who pays the bills to keep the site open. I assume you,I and others make no contributions here. Maybe the webmaster for this site can tell us who pays the bills to keep this free and very informative site open.

Duke..I am aware of the advertising but there had to be someone else behind it which is explained at the bottom of this page in about crash.net. Looks like Crash Media Group could be where the bread and butter is. It seems that Ducati.com are one of their many clients.

Happy birthday Valentino! :) :)
I hope you get a nice present this weekend ;)

Yes, we all have trouble accessing Crash, must be a server or bandwith problem :rolleyes:
I hope they can work it out soon.
