Stefan Pierer has amazing vision and puts the right people behind the programs. He also listens carefully to 'his' racers.
I say THREE years before real results!

I couldn't agree more, which "veers" me slightly away from MotoGP for a moment:
Who will replace the irreplaceable Roger DeCoster as KTM USA SX/MX Team Manager?
I wouldn't bet against a two or three year transition to Ryan Dungey, now that he has retired from active racing. He has always kind of been Roger's hand-picked protege.
Hopefully the 2018 bike will solve their rear tire issues and he can put it together next year.
So educate me. I'm a fan, but not a detail fan. I thought everybody had to use the same ECU now, so how does one team moderate the obliteration of rear tires more effectively than others? I thought that one of the reasons for Dovi's ascension this season is that he is Mr. Smooth with all his inputs, so has more tire left to play with in the latter stages of the race.
Yeah he's been complaining as well. They're trying to balance power, wheelspin and speed. I think the Yamaha is generally slower and they're chasing. They're using up more tire in the beginning and paying for it later.
