Dang.......Yamaha is just mowing the competition down.....MotoGP and WSBK....yet another Yamaha banner weekend at the top level.....getting very humdrum now, race after race, week after week. What is totally remarkable about this is they have been able to pulverize the other makes with an inferior engine layout.....they can only hope to make V4 sounds instead of having an actual V4....like a kid with a toy car making "vroom, vroom" sounds. The entire manufacturing capacity of Yamaha Motor Company is totally stumped when it comes to actually making an engine so, in an abject admission of their inferiority, they are forced to pretend that their engine is actually another engine to mask their inability to actually make one of the "magic motors" so worshipped by the cognescenti. That is just so lucky for the other manufacturers.....if Yamaha could ever figure out how to make a proper engine, all of the other manufacturers would quickly go out of business. Of course, if Yamaha with their "fake" engine keeps crushing the wannabes, then all of the other companies will be forced to......as a guy who fancies himself as one of the world's leading experts on engine performance put it....forced to follow what works. Funny how the actual world works.....far more interesting than a "virtual" world.
