I predict the Brammo Enema will have insufficient horsepower,have a failed exhaust (yes,I know it's electric,work with me) be black flagged for losing brake fluid,handle poorly due to loose wheel bearings and fail to make the grid on time.And Craig will make it all sound like they planned it that way...

I believe I will watch some moss grow instead of catching that "race"....

MotoCzysz will be using thier Motogp prototype bike then.

You forgot outputing 10% less HP than claimed.

[Driver]

The game plan will be to hit it hard for all it's worth then trigger the "excuse". This so they can claim in their marketing materials that they were leading the field when a everyday gremlin all vehicles suffer from happened:

So I predict, a short while in, and near the front of the field they'll conveniently get a flat tire.

[apollyon25]

If memory serves, and I havent watched the clip for a while, the MotoCzysz C1 990's engine was designed by some British lads from Cosworth.

No f**ken surprise it stonks along then...

[DFext37 Fielding]

Yep correct British Engineering, finest in the world (sometimes), but they then thought, oh Motogp is now 800cc, bugger!

Jeremy Mcwilliams had a ride and said it felt 'ok, better than that bloody Ilmor i was on'.

And once more in English?....
