Yep, Karel knows it. I hope Ducati steps in to cover the shortfall and upgrade Z's bike.

Ducati will not cover any short fall. If Dorna are the driving force behind keeping Zarco in MotoGP, then Ducati will simply ask them to cover the difference if Zarco is unable to bring his own sponsor. Having someone competitive on the Avintia is not incentive enough to throw away Daddy Abraham money, if not he would have been gone a long time ago.

Depends how badly they want Zarco in the paddock

MotoGP is having a Black Friday deal.

For 1 Euro you get full access to all videos, and live testing including the Quatar test. Not a bad deal if you want to try the service out.

He said he had a contract, which as we all know, doesn’t mean shit. If they want you out, you’re out. Karel was always a back market. I’m sure that it was a running joke that he was still in MotoGP because of his dad, similar to Rabat since they bring their own $$$

Interesting turn of events.

Zarco must be hurting to not test...or he's going to Yammi to be a test rider.

Only time will tell.

They likely can’t have someone on the bike without a contract. Even the one off guys get a one race contract to keep it legal. If Zarco’s team is still negotiating, then likely we will not see him testing until Sepang

He’s gotta star riding smarter. He’s not made of rubber anymore. He’ll be drinking espresso through a straw when he’s my age.

I would absolutely think so, but what do we actually know about the heroes from 20-30-40 years ago? Do they or commentators mention pain?

I believe it’s been mentioned a time or two. I’ve never read an article myself.
