      Susuki left though they did not want to spend massive money on earo tec and develope
      their bike and engine.
      Yamaha are in the same situation as Honda even if they have quateraro riding ......

Managed to have a good look at all the three classes. Moto2 sounds the sweetest of all three I felt. The MotoGP bikes sound like a different beast. The words that came to mind were 'All muscle, all grunt'. LCR Hondas especially sounded "rustic" somehow, for lack of a better term. Fantastic machines these...

    Interesting sound. Lower pitched than other MotoGP bikes I think. Maybe Honda is pursuing a "thumper" firing order to get more rear grip.

    Zarco is the only one enjoing this on 100%! Taka is, as always, concervative and mute. Mir is dreaming of another title, but sees that this will not happen with the current bike and is getting demotivated. Marini saw him in Repsol leathers, a dream come true, and 3 millions/year is a good kickstarter for an young rider, but already tired of the bike. They need really motivated riders, that will make this brick fly, something like 2004 Rossi, 2007 Stoner, 2008 Pedrosa...

    Who would have ever thought that Honda and Yamaha would be the slowest and worst bikes to ride in motogp… Soon they're going to have no experienced riders even riding them.. How times have changed
