Stoner sense
Stoner speaks out on grid sizes, the manufacturers, satellite bikes and test riders taking top seats. A lot but not all of it I agree with.

Yeah, I agree with Stoner on the bike counts. 22 is barely enough for cars, nonetheless, bikes. A better customer program is needed, and the ability for teams to make their own bikes at a reasonable cost. I don't necessarily agree that factory teams have to run four bikes but old bikes should be available for private use.
You may go for quality over quantity, but at what point do you say enough, we need more bikes, we need to give more riders a chance...afterall, someone always has to finish last. |

Given the fact there will be a glut of Moto2 aces looking for a GP rise in the future then Moto GP has to increase the fields. I'd like 30 on the grid, get some variety. Even an 'evo' or class b in there.
