The way I read that is he's messed with the bike to blame Yamaha so he doesn't have to explain his patchy performances.

He's screwed up what could have been an amazing career.

Didn't he effectively break the bike? That's the way it's being reported on Twitter

His girlfriend has recently had their first baby. Makes you wonder if his head is elsewhere.

I wonder if Cal will ride the factory bike at Silverstone? And Morbideli takes over when he's fit and Cal goes on the Petronas bike for the rest of the season?

If it doesn't clash with WSB I imagine Gerloff will ride it .

Jake Dixon rumoured to be riding the Petronas Yamaha and Cal riding the factory Yamaha at Silverstone.

And Vinales contract now terminated by Yamaha.

In all honesty i cant see either Cal or Dixon being competitive. They need to be trying out new upcoming riders here.
