Leopard Racing KTM?
David, you say Joan Mir is riding the Leopard Racing KTM, but I remember that Leopard Racing returned to Honda for 2017, which is also showed by the timing list. Just noticing.
Leopard Honda
My mistake. Blame it on muscle memory, from typing Leopard and KTM all last year! Fixed it now, thanks for the heads up.
