Edwards saca pecho

En el tech3 le hicieron un cambio de técnico y ahora no se habla con el pianista, tras la actuación de Sepang el Texano saca pecho.

Colin Edwards has publicly revealed that he and Tech 3 Yamaha team-mate James Toseland 'don't talk anymore' and that he was satisfied to comprehensively out pace him during testing at Sepang.

The pair fell out following the conclusion of the 2008 MotoGP season after Toseland was granted Edwards' crew chief Gary Reynders, an incident that Edwards reveals has stopped them from working together.

Writing on his latest blog for the Indianapolis Grand Prix website, Edwards went on to add that he was pleased to have ended the pre-season test in Malaysia two and a half seconds quicker than Toseland, who otherwise spent the three days towards the back of the field following a 125mph accident on the first day of action.

“He's not on the Christmas card list whatsoever,” he said. “It's funny. We don't talk anymore after this little incident. We looked good in front of him, (Toseland) being 2.5 seconds off the pace at Sepang.

“That was good times. You should hear some of the comments being made. He got the crew chief he wanted. That was going to make all the difference in the world, and we just sit and laugh. We have a good time.”

Claiming that he had to stroke Reynders' ego throughout last year, Edwards goes on to say that he is even happier with Toseland's former crew chief, Guy Coulon.

“I thought I was pretty happy last year with my crew chief (Gary Reynders). They co-conspired to kind of stick it in my (rear), if you want to say that. They decided for my crew chief to go to James, and James decided that my crew chief was better than his.

“His crew chief last year, I'm with now, and he's 'frickin' awesome. His name is Guy, Guy Coulon, and he's awesome. He's got so much experience. I think he's been doing it since early 70s.

“I'm really happy. I'm a lot happier with my crew chief. It's just so relaxed. I don't have to stroke (my crew chief's) ego like I did last year. Everybody's just so relaxed, just happy to be riding motorcycles. It seems to have worked out really well for our side of the team, with my crew chief and with me. I think everybody is happier than we were last year.”

Me imagino a Edwards tomándose una birra y mascando tabaco, to tirao en su sofa y descojonándose... Desde luego este tío no tiene pelos en la lengua, para bien y para mal

Pues esto son cosas que pasan en las carreras, pero no creo que el jefe de mecánicos sea el mayor problema de Toseland en Motogp, además me gsutaría saber si esta decisión se tomo debido a que Toseland no aguantaba a su anterior jefe de mecánicos como el caso de Melandri-Checcini, y el equipo decidio el cambio de jefes de mecánicos, sin que hubiera una conspiración por parte del antiguo jefe de mecánicos de Edwards y Toseland.

Bastante gracioso lo del cambio de mecánicos, parecen dos hermanos de esos que quieren lo que tiene el otro por pura envidia.

Guy Coulon y su melena es otro de los veteranos en el paddock: desde los '70 de mecánico, y después de 1980 empezo a ser jefe de equipo al preparar las Hondas privadas del concesionario Honda en Nantes, un equipo privado llamado "SDVM" que consiguió muy buenas actuaciones, entrando con regularidad en el top10 con pilotos como Oudin, Coudray, Igoa...estos dos últimos serían oficiales de Honda, y junto con Coulon en su box se llevarón varios títulos mundiales en los ochenta, ya con el "Honda France HRC".

Algunos veteranos recordarán la Honda SDVM si les doy esta foto y les digo que estuvieron a punto de ganar en el '80 y el '82 en Montjuïc
