Crazy robin 2,963 Posted March 21, 2018 Looking forward to putting on all the thermals for the return tomorrow. After 4 operations in 3 years I should be back to watching regular meetings again. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did he have a meeting at the start of last season where he had ignition problems all night, failed to finish in 3 of his rides and missed the 2 minutes in his other ride?

But it was a meaningless meeting so his main priority was to fix his no1 bike and find what the trouble was. He found the problem and solved it after an extensive practice after the meeting. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An autocratic decision or one made with the team managers consent? Perhaps he could have left the diagnosis to after the meeting. Surely scoring a few points would have been better than none swinging the balance more towards BV. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces51 2,777 Posted March 21, 2018 I'm sure Rohan thought they had fixed it when he came out for his third and fourth rides. On both occasions it seemed ok when he was coming round to the tapes and he was in second place in both races when you could see he was losing power and then stopped.
