Are we already assuming that the frameless 1199 will be shitty?

no, but there have been grumblings that checa's test made him less than happy
Like this is the racing, no?

If the 1199 motor makes power more like the I4s then maybe Hayden is the perfect match for the WSBK 1199.

HRC backed down...

behold the power of Repsol money. ;D

i get HCR/Japan's take on that issue.. but Spain and Italy are GP mecca and they both are hurting.  this is a good thing for the country as a whole. 

plus they can all stop pretending they like george now   ;D

It's a no brainer for both. Repsol is probably the biggest sponsor in all of MotoGP and they're only in Spain. Honda wants to sell bikes everywhere, but will never put themselves in the position to lose Repsol.

Officially an all Spanish team.

I'm very, very DISAPPOINTED!!  [bang]

MotoGP just got a lot less interesting for me.

Who cares?!?! If Marquez ends up being the second coming, then why should anyone be disappointed?

'cuz he's a douche?

GP already pretty much sucks.

Dorna changing the rules to suit the situation makes it even less credible.

As much as I think Casey is a whiner about some things...

he's doing the right thing in bailing on that series.

+1

For all his whinning, it's very entertaining to watch his race.
