only reason he is at the front is because of his starts.
he qualified 7th which was poor.
as hes 20kg less than everyone else he is able to pick up speed much quicker. we all know that as he showed it all last year, qualifies 10th or worse but still first into t1.
he was not injured, was the first year in 3 years since he was 100% fit for race 1.
the problem is he dont like the new chassis honda has, less stable in a str8 line but more stable on corner entry etc.. (you can see his bike wobble on the straight)
dovi however loves the new chassis and cant see why pedrosas complaining.
so yea dani not being able to use new equipment is why he went backwards
