MOTOGP » Sepang III test times - Tuesday

Well we was saying give the guys competetive bikes & tyres & they will do the business.

I'm sure that some of the doubters about Rossi & Hayden will be silenced before too long.

I would'nt mind a season with some good battles between Rossi/Hayden/Pedrosa/Stoner, I can't see Lorenzo or Melandri being up there evey race but can see them battling up there some weeks too.

Bring on 2008

Come On Shinya...go go go

Although I have my favorite riders in MotoGP. I have long awaited the day when to see some racing like we see in the 125 class up in MotoGP. That would be awesome!

SoCal

I think it was a smart move by Rossi to miss PI and go to Sepang where there are only 8 riders on the track.....and now he has topped the Q time set this winter, that should give him great confidence for the next 2 tests. It is a shame about Pedrosa having the injury as it might take him a while to get up to speed again......but to think we might see a Rossi - Stoner battle......bring it on

I'm not sure they 'missed' Sepang, rather a concious decision.
He is testing new tyres and a new engine so they need a good reference track. Changing tp PI would only put more variables into the equasion. Besides this way he could rest his healing hand a bit longer, the testing puts quite a strain on them.

The Morgue....What

I think it may have something to do with the fact that Rossi is the main Bridgestone runner here so he can get all the focus on him instead of haveing to compete for attention with Ducati, Kawasaki, Suzuki etc. Good thinking!

what engine was Hayden using?

Just read it was only the 'normal' engine, not the pneumatic valve spring.
