I get the subtle message were his van could do with TC

Honda were going to do the same ad with Casey Stoner. They had to aboandon it after Casey kicked the slower riders for being on his racetrack, threw up in his lid after drinking milky coffee, chose wet tyres on a bone dry track and spend half the video whinging that the other riders failed to respect his AUTHORITAYYYYYYYYYY

Crap, what a great track shown in that video! Anyone know where it's filmed at?

I thought it absolutely had to be in the US but I've just looked at some on board footage of Parcmotor circuit, Catalunya, Spain and it does look as though that's where it was filmed. Good call.

Its one of the only circuits that incorporates bridge (apart from Suzuka) and...I saw the circuit plan at the briefing (1.01m)

I have always fancied riding it....but I have yet to find a track day organiser who goes there...so many new tracks in Spain now

Christ on a stick that was a shit video... cheesy as fook. Yamaha needs to talk to RedBull about promo videos or something. Crap acting, crap riding, crap production.

Crap bike?

And I thought it was just me

Fancy getting Ben Spies and a nice track for a day or two and coming up with that bollocks!
