Michael Dunlop switches teams - and machinery (off Yamaha and on a BMW) - IN THE MIDDLE OF PRACTICE LAPS!!!

It takes some big cojones to run the TT, but to do it on a bike that you have 2 sessions to setup requires balls the size of dump trucks.

Valentino said he wouldn't do it.

I wouldn't do it either.

Looks like a way to die waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too early to me. ;D

Somewhere I think that I read about that and the answer was not as good as you might expect.  Dunno for sure if it was about Dunlop or Martin though.
