anyone know what happened to Rossis bike?
Front tyre wear, same as Iannone and a few others who were trying to stay with the Hondas. Smith felt it early on and dropped back behind Pol and Crashista to manage it and was then quicker than those in front of him. Dovi also managed it, enabling him to jump clear of Bradl towards the end and keep the podium.HRC really showed up the rest of the field - everyone has the same opportunities for preparation pre-race, and they were simply faster, more organised, and annihilated the rest to the point it was a boring 'race', with everyone basically fighting for the last place on the podium.
I hope the rest of the season does not repeat COTA's parody as that will be my BTSport subscription wasted!

It sounds as though the motogp.com online experience is better than BT: A few knowledgeable and even-toned commentators (ES-style: two in the box and one in the pits); choice of players with the option to have updates pop-up or appear at the side. All of the events and turns in each session are marked on the progress bar so you can easily jump back and rewatch things. No downtime, as yet.
Not for me, I think BT are doing a pretty good job. Getting Spies in the box with Huewen and Ryder was a master stroke, along with Schwantz for qualifying. LoonR1 said:

Those pesky mosquitoes, they're always doing that. Flying in front of rider's visors and blocking out the big bright red lights, I hear it's a big problem in Texas.

i'm sure the red light was on way before he made his launch
it is possible he made a veeeery 'slow' start after seeing red

Nope, just looks like a silly mistake. Red light comes on and he is off.i'm sure the red light was on way before he made his launch

I'm sure a PH BBer would have been able to win on it though.
Me, I could I'm a DAS rider with my own leathers and I only ride in fair weather, or maybe not as I doubt me and Lincsblokey will even finish our race in May.
