    Radio communication to riders in motogp

    I saw that during the test afew teams were testing radio communication. Personally not a fan. I believe once on the bike its up to the rider to do what he has to. Already with all the ride height stuff and maps and traction control. Just more stuff they have to handle. What are your thoughts?

    I thought I read it was limited communication along the lines of informing them of critical areas to watch out for, e.g., rider down in T[X]. Also read it would be pre-recorded messages and not necessarily team comms.

    I would hate it personally. got enough going through my head while racing. but a waring system might work better than dash signals. don't see it becoming like F1 with the team boss talking to you all race long.

    I thought that kind of stuff showed up in the dash already?

    Agreed. F1 should drop comms. If you want to know how fast the guy is behind you, look out for the blue flag :p
