MOTOGP » Rossi insists Laguna victory possible

Im a Rossi fan but i cant see it myself,i think the Ducati will win easily,with Stoner hanging onto it.
Also Toesland has got to start doing something,listening to his manager Burnett before a race it seems they fiddle with the bike too much,changing settings everytime they go out.

If they are heading to Laguna with the same package as Sachsenring,they probably wont be on the top step of the podium.

Rossi will be up there no worries, technical difficulties last two years.

I reckon Rossi will win it and have placed my bet. It''s all in Rossi''s favour--he''s the underdog no doubt. Stoner and his fans have pretty much said he is going to win.
If he does it will be no big deal as he is seen to have a huge advantage, if he doesn''t then his season could well and truly be over, alot will happen at both Honda and Yam over the summer break. Danis the dark horse keeping out the limelight but I pretty much reckon being on michelins will scupper his chances..
Go VR!!! Go DP!!! GO JT!!

I dont doubt Rossi's ability to win for one second no matter what track... but to win in Laguna is going to be very tough for him!

This is actually getting kind of interesting - If stoner has (as they say) an extra 10 HP and Rossi can ride around six or so, on paper he should get a podium but probably not win. I hope Yamaha has something in their little black bag that they can pull out over the summer break. I just hope it's not another runaway - they get so boring to watch.

Go Vale!

Yep, i can't see this weekend being anything other than a run away stoner win...just like last season..

i can see michelin struggling again though, last year they got trounced by bridgestone, and yes michelin have improved this season, but so have bridgestone..

my top 3 is

1. Stoner
2. Rossi
3. Vermulen

Rossi is supposed to be announcing a new 2 year contract with Yamaha this weekend too, I wonder if they will finally go down the V4 route as a means of assuring his signature? It must have crossed his mind to change engine configurations to gain BHP

If Hayden got no mechanical problem or crash, we will see the 1st head to head battle between Hayden and Stoner.

At Laguna, Rossi has to fight Vermuelen. It is only if he managed running away from CEII. Yamaha is better bike now an Laguna is not for "I'm scared" riders.

The Snake Doctor will struggle to get 4th.
