Idiot. I love press releases like this one from Pedrosa at Repsol.

"Both of today’s sessions were quite difficult for us. My left wrist and index finger are still hurting when I ride the bike, and the tyres are not helping the situation. The asphalt is new, but it’s the same situation for everyone. We have tried several different solutions today and so far we still haven’t found the right tyres for the race. We will keep working tomorrow, looking for the best tyres and working on the machine. We hope we can get some more dry track time and then we will see for Sunday.”

Obviously press releases are coded versions of the truth, but this one sounds quite pissed off. Which means the truth is...worse!

Chances of seeing a Michelin runner in the top....oh, let's say, six, on Sunday if it stays dry? I'm saying slim to none. Place your bets you gents.
