MOTOGP » Why is there only one quick Ducati?

Being an Aussie and a Ducati rider I enjoyed the last race and all of 07 That said I do hope that someone ( anyone ) can challenge Casey Stoner this year. Cheers.

Harry , I accept your apology , you just can't condem a whole nation because of a few jingoistic fools, my question about your nationality was "tongue in cheek". I really don't care what country you are from. As shown in this thread not all Stoner fans are Aussie's My Hitler comment was a bit harsh I admit, but it was said to make you realise the above about a race or tribe. Modern Australia is made up of over 200 nationalities and we generally all get along very well. Cheers. I also agree about the racing, let it be injury free and exciting again.

There are many things that water down Valentino's 04 and 05 championships, like no real competion,Honda without JB,special flown in tires etc etc.. But the fact is that he hasn't won in 2 yrs and won't this year, like I said earlier he might have a chance next yr when he has Bridgestone data for all tracks. lets resume this debate at half yr ..ok . Cheers. PS I've never denigrated Valentino Rossi or his many fans of any nationality and I havent seen anyone else put down a race of people as you have here..

You are still denigrating my country/countrymen Harry ,Hitler got into a lot of trouble in WW2 for this mentality . Rossi spat it with Honda for giving equal bikes to 6 other riders, JB fixed the Yamaha and Valentio won in 04, no denying that . But this is 2008 and it's a whole different ballgame,the young guns will take points off Rossi all year and Stoner will win this years championship with more points than 07. What countty again Harry ? Cheers.

What the ? Valentino hasn't raced at the IOM either ! Even Bayliss isn't ballsy enough to race there, IOM is madness ! Cheers. PS Harry , what country are you from ?

What country are you from Harry ? Lets see if we can find a national trait to insult . Why the hell would Stoner go to kawasaki or Suzuki to prove something to you ? Rossi left Honda because 6 other riders were getting factory bikes the next year and for $2 million extra dollars a year. motorcycle.com/news/news1465.html Cheers

Yes, they did give him a contract until 2010 when they saw how fast he is, what is the problem with that, who wouldnt ? laughing at you RFB Cheers.

What ? Who's leaving Australia ? How about some fact based intelligable comments RFB . Cheers.

MOTOGP » Stoner's night dream, Rossi's nightmare.

noj, Ill stick with my comments that Rossi has no data with Bridgestone at most of the tracks they will race at this year. I do agree that he has been great for MotoGP and maybe with a year of using Bridgestones he could be a challenger next year, but that depends on how the young guns come on this year using Michelins ( which have much data for all tracks). Just my opinion Cheers.

MotoGP fuel is regulated at 102 octane rating Kees. Ducati credit Shell with supplying it with a fuel that decreases consuption. Cheers.
