MOTOGP » Rivals ahead but Rossi 'balanced'

rossi won't gain anything by changing to bridgestone, after five years as world champ he is now in the state of declining, "burning out" ... could win many gps, another three or four I reckon, but he won't be that consistent to recapture the world title ... now is the era for stoner (duke), pedrosa (honda), vermulean (suzi) and Lorenzo (yamaha) ... these will be the playmaker, the rest are supporting cast

The wild speculations going on here are like comparable to these "investors" that think they know for sure what is going on at the stock market, until they are all of a sudden on the street without a dime.

Speculation is easy if there are no consequenses. I mean, I could say now that Stoner is not going to finish on rubber at least once. But does that help? No, so I leave it at that, it would be a shot in the air going nowhere.

Really, in the end it's tiring to read the same unfounded crap from the fans of X against the fans of Y. Sorry, but grow up...Pleeeaaasse

Furthermore these speculations are based upon the outcome of a test of new equipment
six weeks before the start of a season that comprises eighteen races,
a bit premature
At this rate these people will go beserk before the first race starts

You are right Morgue, it's still early everything can happend...

I'm just kidding M M

Oh yeh, i have that problem too (calling Hayden a tool)

You just wait and see...

Harryx,
about time someone made some sense on here, I have waited abit longer than normal before posting just to see what the regulars are saying.

Same old story, Ace27 just twisting the knife around in Rossi's back abit more, pitty you got nowt better to do, your so bitter towards him.

All the Bull ***** posted on here is incredible, how can some of you guys be real? you can not expect any rider to jump on either a new bike or rubber & be that competetive straight out of the traps.

Rossi is not that slow on race pace I admitt that the qualifying tyre looked to be dissapointing but let's not decide who will do what on the back of 1 test please!

I'm so sick of the Rossi (..sorry Vale) groupies and the Aussie Stoner chest beaters.
The Rossie teenagers need to concede that Stoner is a genuine talent. At the Sepang test , after surgery, he circulated less than half the laps of his major rivals and was faster than all bar Haydan; who incidentally did 3 times as many. Stoner will be a major force this year. He is a freak, similar in many ways to Rossi. He did it the hard way; traveling to the other side of the planet winning and crashing his way to top.
As for the great man himself, i cant wait. He always sets himself such high standards and nobody can question his work ethic. His record speaks for itself. I can't wait for the start.

@ Nigel & 4 meter rabbit: Well said, abide...
