Three test riders sharing 2 or 3 bikes, so can't really say.

Boy,there are some semi literate haters on that Crash.net comments section,a depressing exercise in schadenfreude.
We know Rossi was never a great qualifier or top of the testing time sheets,he was always a Sunday man,nevertheless he looks to be working hard at taking the shine off his past stellar achievements.
If he has another poor season,I hope he moves along.

To be fair they're only taking their lead from Jorge and Andrea on Twitter. Those two could and should have kept their mouths shut this weekend.

Nope - Cal. But it seems to have created an "open season" on any rider this year. Most have been slagged off on some forum or another. Whether lockdown is getting to people or just some, like George, have to be wankers, it does seem to be proliferating this year.
The whole examination of testing does make me smile - there is one bloke who went to the trouble of extrapolating every lap and coming up with a "proper" performance table to show who was on it and who wasn't and posted it up on Twitter. IT'S FUCKING TESTING!!! You haven't got a clue who's riding what set up, what parts, what they've been asked to do in each session and what the teams goals are and in what order. All we've learned so far is that the Ducatis are quick in a straight line (wow, who'd have thought it?!) and that most can get their new bikes around the track relatively quickly given the constraints of what testing they're doing. But that doesn't stop the twats mouthing off about Rossi being finished and ride blocking, Cal being a waste of test rider berth etc.etc.
