That is quite the curveball for Herve.

Very bad for Folger.

His replacement gets to ride a MotoGP bike, nice job if you can get it, but up against Zarco as a teammate, geez.

This whole deal will siphon resources away from Zarco, so it's not much help to him.

A proper trainwreck.  :P

Not news, but didn’t know where to put it. Some great slo motion footage from 17, but the soundtrack makes me want to make the beast with two backs something up.  :D  So do yourself a favor, and mute it.

Allegedly, Folger has thrown in the towel on 2018.
If true, I wonder who his replacement will be?  [popcorn]

That is a bad illness which can cripple. Poor bugger. Herve's in a tight spot.

The only resource I see Zarco losing is some of Herve's attention. Tech 3 is very well organized team.

Jonas' future at Tech 3 will depend on the amount of aggravation this causes Herve. I fear that this won't end up well for him.

Chatter on the street is that Yonny Hernandez will sub for Folger at Sepang test.

“For MotoGP rookies Franco Morbidelli, Takaaki Nakagami, and Xavier Simeon, they will have chance to continue their adaptation to the MotoGP class, while Tom Luthi will get his chance to throw his leg over a MotoGP bike at last, as he is recovered from his injury.”

Good deal. I’m hoping he can shake the gremlins this season. I’m gonna keep my eye on those rookies this year.

Stoner's 4th lap of the day, on a wet Sepang circuit, and he cranks out a 2:01.1 lap.

That time would have put him 18th on the grid last October at the MotoGP race.

Where everyone qualified on a dry track.
