I heard it last night in FP1 and 2, and again in FP3 - Dovi's bike making this crazy weird sound on deceleration, this chopping sound I've never heard before, almost like a motorcycle version of a jake brake.

any theories as to what that is? is it increasing or decreasing engine braking?
 
I noticed that too this morning, it sounds they are opening the exhaust valves, instead of slipping the clutch on deceleration. Ducati are trying very hard, and they have THE rider in Joe.
 
another cool piece of MotoGP technology that I wish I had on my bike!! Yeah, I have EBC on my 1299 but I do wish it cut engine braking a bit more....and make a cool-... sound while doing so :p
