MOTOGP » Rossi makes giant leap.

Well the season is right around the corner and it looks like the stoner fans have a quiet tongue, no so much talk about stoner now that Rossi has a new bike, much quicker turn around time for parts and obviously NEW motivation...it amazes me how Stoner fans jump on the band wagon behind one season of victory that stoner has accomplished...But he has to deal with the added pressure of proving to the entire world that he can handle it as well as the pressure from all the other thirsty riders who now see him as the target we will soon see what he is made of Rossi has the eye of the tiger if you look closely when he give his interviews and Jorge ain't playing either,Dovi, De a

MOTOGP » Hayden fastest - with the 'wrong' bike!

Dani's comment regrading Haydon is unacceptable..That to me is not very professional as well. Obviously his development of years past might have made a difference if Honda had acted in a timely manner? It's the chasis that made the difference and if I am not correct I think that is what Nicky was asking for improvements last year, could not get the feeling needed for corner entry etc... If Dani was there Golden boy maybe that is why his bike was out performing Nicky's cause they gave the parts to Daniel first I have lost much respect for Daniel now Even if it was a q tire.

MOTOGP » Rossi: My dream is to stay.

Thanks Morgue for the clarity becasue for a minute I thought I was watching another series of Motorcyle Racing the last 5+ years

MOTOGP » Rossi: My dream is to stay.

All you Rossi/Yamaha haters must be disturbed, on edge and I sense some doubt, apprehension etc..That they may have a better package this year, with the better developing rider aboard to sort quickly whatever it may need. The next question would be why did they wait till now to unveil the M1 after everyone showed their hand..they must have something to show and tell. Rossi switching tires creates another brilliant opportunity to shut all you ***** up! I'll give to Stoner last year, but I doubt very seriously he can do it again this year with such ease. Before TC Rossi did handle the bike with skill, pressure not what history of races have you been watching marty

MOTOGP » Yamaha unveils 2008 YZR-M1.

challenge cause JB and Rossi have proven they are the best, brining Yamaha in 04 to where it is now..Remember Rossi went into his own pocket to add on too his salary that is not minor jesture and beside JB is a very brilliant engineer ciao!

MOTOGP » Yamaha unveils 2008 YZR-M1.

Should Rossi get the package he needs this year it will boil down too set up and tuning...Stoner had a stellar year because Ducati came out with a great package. Now that the teams know the hand of Ducati I am sure they all went back and re-grouped to improve what they are working with , kawasaki knew they had a good package form last year and electd to build from that suzuki,honda,etc... all have probably made some changes that will have to be tweaked during the upcoming test. JB and Rossi are always up fpr a challenge so the comment made about they may be a t odds is able it's about making it work now there is no choice and Stoner and the rest better be ready for the tuning cont'd

MOTOGP » Painful end for Rossi.

Stoner needsd a very well tuned front suspension cause he is a front suspension rider. If you look closley you will see minimal front end dive when hard on the brakes. LCR had a poor front suspension and no tech verified by checa when he left the team. At these speeds that is what gives you the confidence to ride like Stoner did. Ducati is known for being a stiff or hard bike to turn requiring counter steering which stoner does well. Wayne rainey said it at Leguna and I had always thought that Stoner was turning his bike quick in and out better than most at the time cause he had confidence now the compromise is going to set in, the same tactics may not work with the 08 as with the 07

MOTOGP » Painful end for Rossi.

From a champion and how it should be worked. Yamaha will use these results to further tune and build the next generation Yamaha to start the championship quest in 08. I bet anyone that it will be a grate year of racing ahead.

MOTOGP » Painful end for Rossi.

So many people have bashed Rossi for speaking up about how he feels have no idea what this game is all about, he's a professional and paid well to do it and if it ain't right change it what is wrong with that if you took your car in and paid to get it fixed and it was still broke you would fuss too, only difference is you ain't getting paid 12m dollars to try and fix it Rossi set out too do exactly what he intended to do confirm that the stones were the right choice too make, using the 07 bike. It would make no sense to really test beyond that without having the 08 bike, so they use that as the base and work from their dah it is obivious. so all you who bash Rossi take a lesson cont'd

MOTOGP » Rossi makes Bridgestone debut.

Considering this is his first day back on new tires,tender wrist, new data to be acquired third fastest on the 07 Yamaha I think Rossi is making a serious statement to rivals and the team. I ready for this challenge. Not taking anything from Stoner and crew, I can only say that he will have his hands full this year/ can he take the new Ducati to the next level or will he rely on the package to be that good again next year? Rossi had the head hacho present at the test too to see for himself that he made a good choice to switch and what will be needed to be competitive for next year is it too early to tell? lets see how it pans out
