I'm sick of reading this, race after race. It's like giving Roger Federer a baseball bat and expecting him to win Wimbledon.

Interesting comment by Vale in MCN this week: "You can win on a bad bike with good tyres (refering to his 1997 campaign) But you can't win on a good bike with bad tyres"
Regarding the latter comment, I am interpreting that as a reference to this season!!! (Although, he has stated he's not happy with the bike either, so it's not even a good bike!)

If Vale is so good though, perhaps he should stay with Yamaha & Michelin & help make the bike & tyres better.

Is Vale saying it the tyres & NOT the bike OR the rider that maketh the title winning combo???

I do think he'll win the title if he's on Bridgestones next year! but sadly, this season has brought out the worst in Vale!!!

Wow Rossi has complained about everything this year, not since Max Biaggi has someone complained sooo much. I dont remember anybody complaining soo hard about substandard equipment as Rossi. When Rossi won 5 titles nobody complained like thie ever. Rossi has had it his way for to long now he is stuggleing with the reallity every other rider has had to deal with since racing began, not the best equipment.
I guess he is not the champion most thought of him as. when the tough get going Rossi gets crumbling.

Now Rossi is not getting special tyres made for him we can see his true form. He is good but not the god that people try to make out.
Its about time that Stoner was given the credit for what he has achieved this year. Do you see anyone else on Bridgestones with results close to his.

Rossi get back in your box and stop trying to change the rules just have to try harder.

Hey Grumpy Doctor - are you REALLY suggesting that Dunlop tyres are better than Michelin? If you read what Clyde said, he clearly recognised that Guintoli was on Dunlop.
Try reading the threat before posting Eh :? :? :?
