Jag tycker man kan vända på det och säga att om Pedrosa kört lite mer rutinerat och sparat på däcken så hade han nog kunnat passera Capirex.
Vi får vänta några race till så Butter lär sig att konservera däcken hela racen, då blir han giftig.
Som jag skrev tidigare är det mest spännande med Suzuki nu för tiden att läsa deras bortförklaringar efter racen
John Hopkins:
“I wouldn’t say I’m exactly satisfied with my race. I got off to an unbelievable start and then got caught up in the mess on the first corner – I came within inches of running Rossi over but fortunately I missed him. I lost a lot of positions and had to ride a bit like a maniac to cut through the field. I made my way through and I was up with the top six when I started to get arm pump in my right arm. I’ve never had it before on a MotoGP bike and I don’t know where it came from. It ruined my race really because I am confident I could have got past the two riders in front of me - but that’s racing!
Chris Vermeulen:
“I got a bad start and then got baulked by the crash. So I had to try and get through the field to get a better place. I think some of today may be a bit of inexperience and we really need to spend more time with the race tyres and set up. I have now got some points from the first round with a 12th place – which is not too bad really – and as long as we can keep improving I’ll be happy.”
