MOTOGP » Rossi: Better bike, better rider

I have been unable to access the crash site for about 3 days now. It just wouldn't download no matter what computer i was using. Any body else have that problem? Any way it seems as though only a few teams are at Sepang and Rossi is leading the way. I think Rossi can do it but dont have much confidence in Yamaha though.

Yup you're not the only one SW,
I got through every now and then but it seems better now.

Its those blasted Rossi fans!!! They'll do any thing!!! Pass me my medication ...

I think they are updating the site.....Hayden was fastest today !!

Ok just updated myself on the motogp site (take note crash). Lots of mentions about Jerez test on many posting etc. It sounds as though its almost compulsory to attend? If so then that should be interesting.

It is the virtual start of the season, you can win a BMW when fastest

I hate to spoil the Rossifest .

Stoner went nearly half a second faster on race tires at Sepang 2 weeks ago, pre the PI tests and I'm sure he would be faster now.

Cheers

rossi lose weight eh! hmmm Iam guessing but cutting off the clown locks then must of saved 1/2 kg and -1 sec. min.

I do hope that alls fair in love and war this season and we are not looking at the straight line advantage we all sore last year. this is not sour grapes, we all sore from the good old helicoptor how quick that Ducati was, and you hav to admit it helped the riders cause a great deal. we need the yam's duc's kwak's etc. to be close on performance and leave the rest to the riders and mechanics.

Stoner may have been faster on race tyres and yeah would probably be faster now, but rossi's wrist is still healing, im sure if rossi was 100% he'd go a bit faster and also, Rossi and Yamaha are still getting data about the bridgestone's so its understandable that he isnt as quick yet....although his qualy tyre time is faster, which can only mean good things.

Part of me thinks the Ducati has been built around its electronics and they've managed to make the bike go fast with the traction control turned on full....you'll never see a ducati rider highside..and thats why you'll see em nice and fast in the wet, im probably wrong but hey, unlike most i know nothing about the technical side in....
