MotoGP GP Czech Republic Movistar Yamaha Race – Yesterday he said, “We are strong on the flying lap but not on the race pace” and today the confirmation arrived. Valentino Rossi was unable to fight for the victory in Brno and in the end he had to settle for a fourth place, which could have been a fifth if in the final corners he had not managed to overtake Cal Crutchlow with a "flip".

Yamaha doesn't seem to be up to par with Ducati and Honda and the Pesaro native underlined this again today, adding that this is a real shame given his state of physical and mental form. The championship lead is now at 49 points, but what stands out most is the lack of victories for Yamaha, who haven't won since Assen 2017, where Rossi won.

CZECH REPUBLIC GP REPORT

“I'm not satisfied, I wanted the podium, but we weren't up to par with Honda and Ducati. I knew it was difficult, we managed a fast lap in practice, but we didn't have the race pace. I tried to stay there until the end but I didn't have the pace. However, I had a good fight with Crutchlow and in the end I finished fourth. It's a shame because I'm in an excellent state of physical and mental shape.”

NO YAMAHA VICTORIES SINCE ASSEN 2017

“Unfortunately we haven't won for a long time, Yamaha is working on it, but as I said we're not up to par yet. Today I also tried to take the lead and managed it for a few laps, but we couldn't fight for the podium. Vinales is also struggling, he thought he would come and find a great bike, but he is a strong rider and I am sure that if the bike improves he too will be back among the protagonists."

BRNO MOTOGP TEST

“Tomorrow we will have a test where we will try something new, but they are small things. Unfortunately there won't be any big changes, but even small things can make a difference, so we will have to stay focused.”

NEXT AUSTRIA GP RACE

“It's one of the tracks where we've always suffered, which is also why tomorrow's test will be very important.”

    Now after every GP it becomes a fixed point to call Pipman a clgli0ne...
    Although in truth you could do it every day!

    Pipman, you've been bitching and talking rubbish for 15 years

    On vacation? Well if someone like you has work.. there is more hope for many..

    On holiday having fun with others?????? Which others…..

    But didn't he say that he immediately understood that the bike that allowed Maverick to win 3 races and developed by Lorenzo was wrong??? with the one he developed Yamaha hasn't won in 21 races, a total disaster, I don't think that Yamaha can afford to make a fool like that just to let Rossi race who shows his limits in a clear way...

      ...but it's enough for them that Maverik arrives behind the geriatrician and they're happy...they make comparisons now, not when he took a miserly pay and then cried and radically changed the set-up of the bike which now doesn't work with either of the two riders...anyway I'm enjoying it like crazy to watch the races in the bars with the canaries excited halfway through the race and then whimpering like injured dogs at the end of the race, is priceless!!!

  • ueueue said:

    I understand that you show the obvious limits with every post... and there is no setting to improve..

    In fact, how the Vinales bike is developing... it always comes after the old boiler..
    Rossi does what he can with a Yamaha clearly in difficulty... but for you it's only Rossi's fault...
    It accelerates less than the others and this can be seen with the naked eye.
    But obviously it will be Rossi's fault
    He loses at speed but it's Rossi's fault there too.

    Alright!

    Anyway great Valeeeeee!!

      21 races, always the bike's fault?...

  • TONYKART said:

    If Lorenzo had remained in Yamaha with Maverick with these results I imagine how much shit the newspapers and the Rossi fans would have thrown at him... given that Rossi dictated the line it is right that he takes his responsibilities, if the bike goes slowly in some phases of the race and on some tracks it means that more than an electronic or engine problem it is a chassis problem, one done according to his instructions...

    1. ueueue said:

      What are you talking about, stupid, no one is complaining about the chassis, are you there or can you make French fries with it?

  • ueueue said:

    I imagine that even the support teacher threw in the towel on you...

  • TONYKART said:

    The imbeciles are you who believe that Yamaha doesn't know how to program a simplified control unit or that it doesn't know how to make an engine with at least the same performance as Honda, the truth is that the chassis wanted by Rossi only works well on very few tracks on all the others and terrible, It works badly with the tyres, it ruins them to the point of slow entry and slow exit from corners and in the eyes of you inexperienced people it seems to be the engine's fault... what do you want the great test rider to say? This is the bike I wanted and developed? better to blame...

    X Canaries fun

    The argument is simple, but it seems that you want to go around it. You don't want to hear that last year's bike was the right one. The results don't lie, that bike has won several GPs, while the one claimed by Vale has only won one. I would like to point out that that bike had a lower speed than the Ducati and that too, most likely had the same difficulties in acceleration (but I'm giving it a hair's breadth here, you'll know better). Honestly, for me, it doesn't matter to me that Yamaha is going badly for one reason or another, but what I would like to hear from some fans with a minimum of coherence is that your beloved Tavullian idol has made a c @ppell@ta huge, ruining the performance of his teammate, without managing, in turn, to improve his own results.
    You hide behind the fact that it's the engineers who make the bike, who know more than us etc. etc., but the results speak for themselves, Vale wanted to overturn the bike designed with the specifications dictated by Lorenzo (with whom Vinales went full throttle ), to make one with his specifications, which however put his teammate in crisis (this is the reason why we see the Spaniard always behind Vale, not that Vale is faster than Vinales, at least in my opinion) and Vale did not obtain the results that were expected from him. You could also see from the results that Zarco obtained throughout the last season, that it was a bike made with the right ratios which, although in difficulty in some aspects, made up for it greatly with its strengths.
    It doesn't take long to line up all the clues to prove it, but you continue to be duped by your favorite.
    Don't you think it's time to open your eyes and tell it how it is?
    You say it lacks acceleration, but can an in-line 4, with that weight distribution, ever equalize that of a V-4 with another weight distribution? Every motorbike has its pros and cons, having a motorbike which in its weak points is on par with the competition and in its strong points is clearly superior, means winning all the races without having rivals.

    It's been a while since I dabbled, long time right?

    Great Dovizioso
    Great Lorenzo
    Great Ducati

    But no what you say, that you enjoy cassatas it's clear by now.. that they are a little longer than usual, I'll agree with you about that..
