Week that's one-way of keeping heat in the tyre.. Interesting that it's offset to the right, is portimao an anticlockwise circuit??

But the rear wheel moves up and down.

I need to see it from another angle.

It wont touch. Its the factory Ducati WSBK team they know what their doing (y)

If its 1mm clear with the suspensioon fully compressed its still clear, hence the saying an inch is as good as a mile (lol)

It's quite a way from the tyre. I believe it's actually been designed to keep heat away from the tyre.

If it's been designed to keep the heat away from the tyre does that mean it's then be designed to sprue the heat against the poor riders leg!!

The riders leg is 200 mph in front of that hot exhaust gas, he'll be OK (giggle)
