Just to add my 10p's worth I was suprised about how fast this Ducati has been "out of the box" The other bikes around the same times are well developed and should really be kicking the Ducati around at this time of the year! As much as I admire Ducati for sticking one up Japan it leaves a poor taste in my mouth when they threaten to leve the championship if they don't get their way etc. As for the other Ducati being a little slow...well new bike team and engine for Biaggi.

Dude, yes Bayliss is fastest, but only by a small margin on Haga,
nothing un-normal!
While the other Ducati's are not as fast, so I think its more Bayliss than
the bike, as I guess Bayliss could also go fastest here on the 999.

Steady on old chap! One Ducati in the top 5 piloted by the exceptionally talented Troy Bayliss is hardly conclusive proof that Ducati are going to dominate the season. This is only the first test and there's no Hannspree Honda. Shouldn't get too worried yet...

how does this mean it will be a ducati cup? the next best ducati is 6th so that means theres 4 japanese bikes in the top 5. as Guy said, bayliss is just better than the other riders thats all there is to it.

i agree with you Peachy,
the first test session,ducati beats,the yams and suzukis etc which have had a years developement.Same as this test session.The duke is only going to get faster and faster and if people like to watch ducati cup,the watching public is going to decrease.
last year was amazing,i fear it wont be the same this year,hope im wrong

Don't discount anybody at this time of the year, also don't forget that Troy is on home ground ands thats got to be worth a few tenths. Just a shame that one or two new guys that went into WSS hadn't come straight into WSB. Still bodes good for the future I hope. Can't wait for the fun to start, roll on the first race.
