I am sick an tired of seeing Casey go faster when Ducati introduce more technology to their bike, 'software' referred to is just an updated Magneti Marelli engine management and traction control package. If anyone wants to go against me on this then I would ask you to watch a replay of Stoner at Donnington last weekend - at one stage during qualifying (on race tyres) casey slipped the clutch out of the loop (i think) and just as the tyre was about to come around there was an almighty sound of cylinder retardation and instead of highsiding Casey just put the throttle down full whack and off on his merry way, I don't care what anyone says - its the electronics. VALENTINO 7 TIMES CHAMPION!!

HA ah the ould dog does it again, said it before and said it again, Stoner and co are just robots, Rossi is the doctor, he can ride any bike with any package and especially he could ride an 800 with no electronics and if everyone did the same Rossi would be miles ahead!!

the problem with the GP8 is that like all new things it takes its own perfect riding style to win races and just at the moment Casey is the only one to be able to tame the beast and even he is having problems. It''s like any new piece of equipment the rest of the riders aren''t used to the bike so naturally they''re taking benchmarks from Honda,(Melandri, Elias) and Yamaha (Guintoli). At the end of the day its as simple as just biting the bullet and riding the bike the way it needs to be ridden, full traction control and no fear.

Only one thing to say everyone. HONDA WILL BE BACK. Look at Pedrosa, no pneumatic valves and still leading the championship. ROSSI IS STILL THE DOCTOR!!!

IT is interesting to see how well the two privateers get against the factory boys! 1 second is like a lifetime but biaggi and Xaus have only sat on the bike for a few hours whereas Bayliss has had a good few tests done already. IT will also be very interesting to see what will happen When - and not if - Biaggi beats Bayliss in a race, Will he mysteriously start on a losing curve like Barros did in MotOgp after he finished ahead of SToner. But the most interesting thing will be how Xaus and Biaggi get on with eachother!!
