One of the things about this Bubba senario is that he was supposed to be out an injured hand.
But he pops up today and goes on and on about how great the 'testing' has been going with the Yosh Suzuki team making it sound like they have been testing for weeks.
So help me out here... you can be under contract [for big bucks] to one manufacturer/team, break a bone in your hand that seemingly keeps you from attending any team event to promote your sponsors, or to simply meet with your fans at the races... but you can get on with 'outdoor testing' for another brand, pose for press photos, conduct interviews, etc, etc...
Sounds like a bunch of prima-donna bullshit to me, and Bubba wonders why he polarises the fans. Why another manufacturer would support such behaviour is beyond me... I hope he goes well on the Suzuki, but I hope Dungey goes even better.
What an immature knob!!!
