Wow. Motor sports is looking down this year.

not that some one is going to miss Kawasaki in MotoGP, but the grid was already too empty (remember the old good says of the 500 Class?)

Wow, that's nuts. Who does that leave? Honda, Ducati and Suzuki?
I don't really follow it, so I wouldn't know. Wouldn't expect some major company like Kawasaki to leave like that.
If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

Besides Aprillia and Yamaha I can't remember if there are any other constructors left on the grid.
Honda has alredy pulled out of the competition, Suzuki did the same, now Kawasaki?
What and who does that leave?
We could be watching the end of Motorsport as we know it!
times are rough
Gone:
09 Ducati Monster 696
09 Audi Q5 3.2
03 Infiniti G35 Sedan
07 Honda Civic Coupe LX 5spd
Current:
10 BMW 335d
12 Audi Q5 2.0t
10 VW Jetta TDI
11 Ducati Monster 796
Kawasaki are probably pulling out because of the big boss (Kawasaki Heavy Industries) having a hard time at the moment. And the motorcycle division can't be all that healthy either.
Buying a car and not driving it is like buying a meal and not eating it.
