The 45secs of theme tune at the start of every single podcast annoys me a little. Really don't see the point in that.
Yeah, I get where you're coming from, but as the tune is quite good...I don't mind it.

That Oxley keeps messing up the introduction is getting a frustrating!

Only the right side should be bright yellow though.

I dont really get it, the Pertamina colours are primarily blue red and sort of fern green, so this is just Vale ramming yellow in your face in a very vivid and rather unpleasant colour scheme, His crews usually do a better job with liveries, so unless this is much better in the flash... If it is dayglo maybe?

Unless this is what pertamina want!!

Be interested to see the riders' leathers. Might work better if they're mainly yellow too.

And very easy to spot on TV which is what the sponsors want, TV time and equivalent advertising exposure...

Not an improvement to my mind, but at least we won’t miss them.

Reminds me a bit rider wise of the Swan colours Hill and Laverty ran in BSB years ago but without the green!

Perhaps a bit premature, but how many rounds will it be before Quartararo scores points in a Sprint? Will he have signed for someone else before the season has even started?

That's horrid and it's not even really a livery, just a collection of sponsor stickers. Looks more like a mid table Moto3 bike than a MotoGP machine.

Agree, although I can nearly get on board with the yellow/white fade along the length of the bike, the riders leathers look censoredcensored

It does seem with sponsorship clearly hard to come by, we're seeing so few of the single sponsor branded bikes these days. It's a shame as they end up looking like such a dogs dinner of different bits and bobs and everyone vying for a reduced amount of space. Then someone in marketing demands it's the brightest thing out there to catch the eyes and we end up with a mess.

The days of Pepsi or such like taking essentially the whole bike except the belly pan, with the other sponsor neatly listed at an angle along the bellypan are dead seemingly .... Maybe of course as someone in their second half of a century on the planet I don't recognise what's cool/fashionable these days either. The youth may love this.

Any youth in here? (seriously doubts any youth <25yrs would be seen dead on a forum anyway)

I think it might need to be seen in person, if that is dayglo it might look much better!!

I'll be 40 on Sunday so don't count as Youth any more! Not sure what we'll get this season but Factory Aprilia and Repsol Honda are two of the most cohesive bikes, as are the KTMs.
