MOTOGP » Melandri suffers 'demanding' debut

Can we all slow down a bit. Melandri has only completed the FIRST test for heaven's sake. Not sure Stoner was that good on his first test (although I stand to be corrected). Let's give him some time and wait (if we can) for the first race.

rides more like he would 250's ( made a mistake and wrote "riders" ) - above

The statistics that I have say that Melandri is 164cm 57 kg and Loris 165cm and poss a cpl kgs more than Marco. Stoner is a bit longer I think poss even 170+ a little. Dont think marco will try to adapt to stoners settings - he'll stay at a distance and do his own stuff / riders more like the 250's comparing to Loris so have a feeling will get better or get better faster on ducati than loris. I think he will.

Melandri and Stoner are almost the same size,,, the statistics are Stoner height 1.70cm weight 58kgs,,,Melandri height 1.68cm weight 58kgs, Gina I wouldn't say Melandri is the same size as Loris. I doubt whether Stoners set up will suit Meladri as Stoners set up is to the extreme, I believe this was one of Loris's problem trying get a Stoner set up to suit him, it would be better if Marco takes no notice of what Casey uses, and start with a blank page

2008 is going to be huge. Look at the factory Yamaha team with 2 of the biggest egos ever seen in sport.

I will predict fireworks next year, and I think Jorge will come out on top. I dont think Rossi will be trying the same stunts behind closed doors as he did with Biaggi. Rumour has it the boy is quiet handy with his fists.

Lorenzo - has personality. not sure if he sees racing bigger than himself which is a great strength, ...but at least he's honest when expressing his emotions.

M- HorHay is how the correct english translation of Jorge sort of 'sounds' when spoken.....
I like him cause Rossi dosen't, hmmm means hes obviously insecure around the bloke for some reason??? the whole seperate pits and gay thing has me wondering though

Aint the 08 season going to be a riot

have to say ..me too, not sure how is he going to form and what is he going to turn into next year; have a feeling he'll lose lots of his conquered lorenzolands. remembering pedrosa in the 250's - him ( and stoner with the worse bike ) were in pedrosa's shadow most of the time..so not sure if he is that good and how will he combine with the bike and tyres . kind of confusing. a bit like his name...

Thanks Gina Hee Hee. Im not sure if I like Lorenzo or not yet but all the bad stuff written about him is putting me right off so gay is he.

spanish language partially. "hay " should be "gay"...
