They were talking on eurosport during the practice today about both spies and edwards been yamaha employees, and not tech 3. and the deal that tech 3 have says the must have one yamaha employee and another, and were speculating that edwards would stay in 2010 and then him and spies would swap in 11.

They were talking also about an australian company buying into motogp through sponsorship and been an aussie would be a good nationality to be in the next few years, but i can't remember which company.

I don't think that Edwards would go back to WSB. I don't think that he could be bothered with it (he'll be 37 by then).

Also congrats to Bradley Smith, who is on pole for the 125 race.

I'd be surprised if Rossi retires after next year TBH. 2011 should be around about when he's in striking distance of Agostini's record, and I can't see him passing up the chance to go for it.

Hopefully he would not retire but would Lorenzo really want to play second fiddle for another two or so years ?

The Doctor wins again.

Perfect weekend for the doctor,thought the 250 race was outstanding.I bet Bautista wished there a few more laps to go as he was trapping late on.Pedrosa and Dovi has signed new contracts with Honda to.

Any mind games in there? I wonder if it has anything to do with Lorenzo attempting to copy Rossi's settings at the weekend in order to keep up. Perhaps lashing out if he think Lorenzo is benefitting from his expertise and wanting a bit more secrecy within the garage.

Probably not, but I wonder if Lorenzo was simply backed into a corner in the end. Honda lost interest, Ducati seem fairly settled (and he'd not really want to go and be second fiddle to Stoner either), so where else would he go? A year deal means he can maybe try Honda again next year. I wouldn't be surprised to see Pedrosa move on if they're trailing Yamaha by so much again.
