JT has broken his silence over the Tech3 fall out and given his side of the best story in this years MotoGP off-season.Edwards has been reveling in the fall out from the crew chief swap and JT has attempted to blame team boss Herve Poncheral for the dispute in an exclusive interview with the BBC.
"The only problem was that there was no communication going back to Colin, so all of a sudden he's told by Garry.
It didn't have to happen like this and I can imagine why he feels the way he does."
However some of his comments are likely to inflame the argument even more, claiming he needed "an experienced engineer". Considering Guy Coulon is one of the most highly regarded engineers in a GP paddock he has worked in for more than 20 years, this might be a tough view to buy, and is hardly an olive branch.
There's only one winner in all of this.

Why doesn't he just belt up and let his riding do the talking
ReplyDeleteSomething to do with being 16th on day 2 of testing in Jerez, to Edwards 10th and then 11th on Day 1 to Edwards' 5th might be the reason to get his excuses in early.
ReplyDeleteFollowing your link to the 2009 Tech 3 team website I see they are listing Guy Coulon as Colin Edwards crew chief and Guy Reynerds working with James Toseland.
ReplyDeleteNow in this cock up/conspiracy world you don't suppose the 'row' was just to gain the team publicity and nothings changed or is it just a plain old website cock up?
