Hayden / Dainese

[Lean.In.]

Did I totally miss this? Has this been going on for a while? I know last year Hayden was with A* and now he's rockin Dainese gear. Is Rossi THAT big of an influence??

yes he change since the first of the year and made Jorge Lorenzo to go A*.... and yes Rossi has that much pull

What do u mean "made lorenzo go to A*"? Aren't the suits a personal sponsor? Why would nicky going to dainese change what happens with anyone else?

That and the fact that he and Casey were pissed that they lost knee pucks on the A-Stars last year. That loss of a knee puck in the beginning of a race really hindered Nicky.

Thanks Erick.

HondaGal, I remember that happening to Hayden at Indy, but Im pretty sure he caught it on some kind of lip on the curbing or something weird happened...It seemed like that would have happened to anyone. BUT, I dont know what happened with Stoner.
