From http://www.motogp.com/en/news/2010/MotoGP+regulations+for+2010
"In addition to these specifications, the Commission unanimously
decided to introduce amendments with regards to tyre pressure for
2010. For the forthcoming season tyre pressure sensors will not be
allowed, with tyre temperature sensors already prohibited."
I can't think of much of a rationale for this, apart from perhaps
keeping costs down. Anyone got any ideas?

They can't cost very much, every car over here has them now.

Maybe it's to limit any chance of active tire pressure management?
