WARNING MESSAGE!

Everything you read here is false unless it can be proven to be true. We are neither for nor against. If looking through the keyhole puts you off but more often than not you give in to that urge, you're in the right place at the wrong time. Here is the life of the people in the paddock through the small end of the lens, that is to say outside of racing. It’s “they say”, gossip, not necessarily always very beautiful and no doubt also sometimes mythical or false. In any case, it's from the People of the Paddock. So from the Village People.

BE CAREFUL, certain subjects may offend the sensitivity of the youngest, or the oldest, as well as people who do not take a step back. We will have warned you.

If you want verified information, interviews, technique or photos, change sections quickly! It is still time!

You are still here ? So here we go, but don't come complaining afterwards!


We had already made a slight allusion to it, but it is a rumor which is gaining momentum around Cal Crutchlow, and which could also explain his change of attitude noted at a press conference towards the support provided by Honda…

But be careful, it's a rumor from the paddock, so it's the story of the man who saw the man who saw the bear, and so, even if there is rarely smoke without fire, These are just rumors currently circulating in the Sepang paddock…

In short, Dani Pedrosa would be a little tired of spending a good part of his life in convalescence and, this time, it would be the straw that broke the camel's back; the Honda driver would think about hanging up.

If this rumor gained a little substance, his replacement would obviously be found, which, therefore, would stop teasing Honda at a press conference as he had done so in these previous statements.

And to replace Cal Crutchlow at LCR, Takaaki Nakagami (driver supported directly by Honda Motors who has a much greater “weight” than the HRC, that is important) would arrive in MotoGP, a project on the agenda for several years but constantly postponed.

So, this is not information but just a rumor (come on, let's call it a hypothesis) which was circulating today in the Sepang paddock. We don't attach great credibility to it but we nevertheless continue to open our ears, and if this becomes more serious, you won't have been the last to know... There is rarely smoke completely without fire!
