Full Sprint
Mav’s off to a flying start in the opening race at Qatar. Is this the new Mav? One that can keep his head together? Some lame amateur wannabe journalists seem to think so…
Slight slip
Oh…but what’s this? Mav’s slipped on the proverbial ‘wet teacake’ in the very next race at Qatar the following week. Suddenly he’s finishing fifth and not knowing why. Meanwhile his teammate takes the win.
Free Falling
Uh oh! The season’s fall is already rapidly getting out of control as Mav rotates undignified around his fulcrum. The results are getting worse and fingers are starting to be pointed in an unhelpful manner.
Worse still Mav’s teammate is scorching away at the top of the championship. And he’s French.
Crash Landing
Enough is enough. After multiple races of being made to look like a steaming nugget by his teammate Mav crashes to the ground and decides he’s leaving Yamaha despite having nowhere else to go. He decides to blame the team for not supporting him and for favouring his teammate.
Yamaha respond by secretly switching his mobile phone charge cord to one that only at works at very specific and inconvenient angle.
Deep Impact
Oh dear Mav looks like he’s now got himself into a fair pickle here folks. In Austria Mav’s so fed up with looking like an ignoramus that he decides to try to blow his bike up by continuously over-revving it. Yamaha’s noodles aren’t happy. They suspend him, then fire him. Then purposely mail all his belongings to the wrong address.
Luckily Mav’s dad on hand to help smooth things over…but oh no…it’s only gone and made things worse! At lot worse! In retrospect maybe claiming Yamaha were deliberately sabotaging his son’s bike wasn’t that soothing?
Mavarus of Bethany
Poor Mav’s now in a right state. No bike. No job. Angry father. Mav tries to apologise but that boat’s sailed and sank.
But what’s this? Like a black angel on a rainy-day Aprilia step up and sign him up for next season!
And it gets better. Yamaha were so keen to get rid of Mav they tore up his contract and burnt it on the yakiniku. This means good old Mav is free of any shackles and able to ride next weekend at Aragon!
Hurrah!
