Dare I say it? Rossi to Ducati in 2011, with Spies ready to take his spot. Face it, there isn't enough room at Yamaha for all the talent they currently employ...

There's a simple difference in philosophy between the Japanese & the Italians... The Japanese only think about HP & top speed while the Italians focus strictly on the lap times,(besides Yamaha recently, after Rossi insisted that they put more MotoGP tech into the 2009 R1, obviously) This is why Ducati have used the L-twin for so long & the Japnese use in-line 4's so much. Different strokes for different folks! (Although Ducati seem to have the winning combo 16 of 22! That's impressive, no matter where your loyalties lie)

I don't understand why KTM are being so bashful, they made that bike to race in SBK so what the hell are they waiting for? BMW was confirmed before you could see their bike in a dealership!

(Correction- sorry no offense crash.net) Ducati won the manufatures title in 1993 (so kawasaki has none) & Yamaha won the manufatures title in 2007... :rolleyes:

Everyone wants to win! That's why they put their lives on the line every time the go out on track. Everyone should try their hardest to win all the time. "Team orders" should only be a product of mutual respect & friendship between team-mates (like Bayliss & Xaus in 2001, Bayliss was trying his hardest to help Xaus win during the last round after he secured the title) NOT imposed by the team management. Plus, I feel the only time it should be necessary is in the final round of the season, if needed. Congratulations to Fabrizio & Haga! Great weekend!

The only major change I would like to see has to do with testing. It would be so simple.. If any one of the teams want to test, than everyone else is invited also. Further more, If any of the teams are unable to pay for traveling costs, etc, than the team which initiated the test would compensate said team. That way all the big factory teams would literally provide valuable testing & development for the satellite teams that simply cant afford to. I think this would bring a lot more parity to the series on behalf of the overall increased skill & seat time of the riders, & not on frustrating machinery/testing restrictions. Whoever wanted to test would have to pay up, plain & simple.

Actually, the layout World Superbike uses now (the outer ring) was used by AMA in 2006 & 2007. For 2008 AMA ran the full course so that there would be no direct comparisons between the two series. Ben has the most experience on that track without a doubt. Expect the triple!

That record is as good as broken!!! Ben knows Miller like the back of his hand.. I've seen him race there for the last 3 years & he's won 5 of the 6 races I saw.. I CANT WAIT!!
