  • Photographer's Blog: Interview with Rhys Edwards, HRC Communications and Marketing Manager

    15 May 2012 | 11:37 pm
    The longer I get to work in the MotoGP paddock, the more it strikes me how many talented people contribute to the show by working behind the curtain while a small percentage of personalities get most of the media attention. Rhys Edwards, whom you may recognize from his frequent position in Casey Stoner’s seat during shots of the Respol garage, is one of many people I’ve met who manage to perform roles of great responsibility while remaining friendly, approachable and warm individuals. When I learned something about his background in Formula One, I assumed he would have an…

  • Mike Webb On Cheating In Moto2: "If Anyone Is Cheating, They're Not Very Good At It"

    David Emmett
    14 May 2012 | 12:15 pm
    Cheating in motorsports is as old as the sport itself. Whenever powered vehicles gather together to race each other, then someone, somewhere, will try to gain an advantage, either within the rules or, if that is not successful, outside of the rules. In all classes, and at all times, teams, engineers and riders have all tried to cheat in one way or another. Even the imposition of a spec engine in the Moto2 class hasn't prevented teams trying to cheat, and the paddock is awash with rumors regarding which teams are cheating and which teams are not. The finger of blame is inevitably pointed…

With their philosophy of giving their customers the whole sensation, the satisfaction of every kind in relation to simple pleasures, they’ve won me over quite some time ago. Because, as I am being told, Australia is some number of kilometers away from Europe, it is impossible for me to get a motorcycle done by them. That is why I opted for purchasing a wallet instead of a bike. They say it’s genuine leather, but it smells a bit…
