I should put a fancy bet (what are they called?) on Marquez being the first to feel the pain of this change.

First to gain points, or first to be forced to start at the back of the grid... hmmm. :kuda:

marquez masterplan? maybe to penalise him during this year when he'll no doubt throw it into a few other people :lol:

he will win lots of titles, but this year, he WILL crash... remember lorenzo in china?

if marquez doesnt at least have one crash like this, i'll be very surprised... would also be good to see rossi teach him a bit of a lesson every now and then ;)

Maybe it's to stop Rossi getting argy bargy with Lorenzo?

Who am I kidding?! It's for Alvaro Bautista when he goes for a turn 1 move of course ;-)
