It will be funny if the big heads in Michelin and B'stone decide they don't want to supply the whole field and do not participate in the bid.

Not very probable of course, but funny to think about it...

This is onlt good for the sport as us the watchers of the battles rather than the circulation race after 3 laps as the bikes extract the max from everything and thats the pace you run.
If all are on the same tyres, then the excuse of "My tyres" goes out of the window. It's how your package gets the best result from the tyres. Lets just hope that no specific manufacturer leads the way in development and that the rubber company produce a true generic tyre and get the manufacturers to discover how to make the tyres work to the max.
This rule has turned WsbK into a true king of racing again. It will do the same here and ALL should praise for OUR sakes. We are the winners of this rule.

Good for the sport..

Some very good comments made by you and a few other.

Do we know as of yet if the MotoGP single tyre rule will be the same as WSBK with 3 different compounds or will it be single tyre with a huge range of compounds and certain riders will get special treatment?

If we do go back to the days of certain riders getting special tyres, what will this new rule achieve?

A Spanish, Italian world championship?

And they were also responsible for his championships in 04 & 05. What's your point?
