None of this should be a surprise. I cannot see CoW ever seeing the light of day.

Read the article ;) It's about constructing a new circuit in the area.

Official 2015 and 2016 takes to be held at silverstone.
Really happy with that, closer to home for me and better facilties at the track, even if the track itself is not so much a bike track.

Dorna were silly to agree to go to CoW anyway when all the have is an idea and a couple of drawings.
If they still need government move its unlikely to happens in the uk. Just shows people like Carmelo and Bernie are whores and will always jump into bed with the highest bidder rather than do whats best for the sport .

There's been a couple of articles recently about Melandri's struggles to re-adapt to MotoGP machinery and Aprilia "expecting more" from him. Marco wants to go back to WSBK where he was successful with Aprilia, yet Aprilia want to keep him in MotoGP for his development skills. Seems like a lose / lose situation for Marco.

Yeah I really feel bad for him. Had a good steady career in WSBK and now has to start all over in MotoGP again. I bet he gets to drive while the bike is shit, and when it finally will show some potential he will be sacked for some young gun.

Ducati's destroyed the field in Qatar testing :s not even of the softest tyre available either, be a shock if that happened in the race weekend but the pace they had looked strong and consistant.
Wonder what odd's are for a Iannone Pole and or a Dovi win!!!! might be worth a punt, especially when they bung the Super Soft in the rear in Q2 a pole would be possible. Race pace MM will do whatever it take's, or bin it trying.

Doesn't Ducati still have some (not much) open class rules applied to them? I think Marquez discussed about them losing their advantage if they would score some good results. Would be great to see a Ducati win though, has been quite some while now.

Commercials? They just played a promotional video on a loop for several minutes during the breaks. Don't go on a break when there are no Commercials to play idiots!

Almost no commercials at all on Eurosport in Germany

So much better than Sport1 already

They sorted out the commercials today it seems, only 2 very short ones during MotoGP practice 2.

Considering the tyre advantage Ducati has in qualifying, I see this being the theme for the season.
