MOTOGP » Raikkonen compliments Stoner

Ahh. Thanks for clearing that up. Is a campanologist a well kept, slightly minced, rural traveller?

Campanologist: connaisseur of bells?

From what I can read in Italian the Domenicalis are not related, allthough they hold similar positions at Ferrari and Ducati and are jokingly called 'the cousins'. It is intresting though that the factories make combined appearances at vrroomm! event.

Hey Morgue. Thanks fella

Campanology now that rings a bell. I wonder if all people claiming to be Aussie's are really from God's Great Garden, it seems as soon as the word Aussie is mentioned people come out fighting similar to a prizefighter when he hears the bell, must be some kind of natual instinct. Interesting to find out that a signed person can delete a post, this does explain why some of my posts have disappeared, I thought this strange that the moderator had deleted them as I don't use strong or bad language,,,,another riddle solved,,,,watch this space????????

Wishful thinking Saltbrush. The truth can sometimes be painful

Fiat (Yamaha motoGP team sponsor) own Ferrari so maybe the relationship with Ducati isn't as close as some here like to think it is ?

Cheers

If your post disappears it might have contained offensive material and was removed by the moderator,
like when I start about Dutch cheese, imbreed in polynesian insular outposts or quantumfysics.
I don't believe people truly dislike Australians here, it just seems they type with boxing gloves themselves.

Rob Wilson, you may be right, we will never know to what extent they help eachother out, it's hush hush.

Interesting point Rob. I didn't think of that one.

Just one other point

Ducati SPA had income of 4.3 billion USD in 2007 against Honda motor co at 93 billion USD .
To my mind what Ducati have done in motoGP and WSBK is remarkable with or without Ferrari's help.

Cheers and bring on the racing !


just to make you all jealous my son and I are off to PI when motoGP testing starts ( we live an hour away )

Good on ya mate, have fun.
