BIGSNOOPY, Edwards is using Pedrosa's bike setup and data, that is the only way Edwards could be faster than Rossi. Stoner has been using Dani's setup from the 250cc days, that is why he won the title last year, and Rossi used Dani's data all of his years at the MotoGP (Dani's data from 125 & 250cc), that is why he win more than a few races. I even heard that Leob use Dani's bike setup on his car, that is why Leob is so fast on the tarmac!!!!

Corser assumes Yamaha mantle again
1 agrees.
Yes, nothing to prove based on the past, but he is still racing, he do want to win again? Maybe he have to prove that he can still win a race? When was his last win? The R1 is a good bike. Shame about the rain at the Ring, that race was his!

Burgess defends Rossi's overtaking.
3 agree.
I'll be surprised if Burges will say anything else than what he said, he work for Rossi. Rossi did complain about Elias for the same reasons that Casey mentioned.Rossi used people as billiard balls to make a pass stick. I.e. pushing Sete into the gravel to take a win. He also did some reckless pass on Marco where Marco got injured, so his he have his share of bad maneuvers. The one on Sete not sporty at all, he just didn't give a crap if Sete manage the turn at all. Brno is a wide track, not suited for block passes etc, so it will not be easy stopping Casey there.

Pedrosa to try pneumatic at Brno test.
1 disagrees.
Kees, yes Brno demands power, specially from the lowest point up the hill. But, with stronger engine we might risk DP will fly to the moon!!!
Looking at the WSBK races there where Suzuki (usually strong there) struggles while Ducati did good (used to be Ducati's weak track), the asphalt there is new, will be interesting to see how that affect the Bridgstone-Michelin situation.

1 agrees.
Yes farmer giles, for sure, totally agree with you on that. Considering Corser,well I remember when he won AMA and WSBK. Serious staff from Corser,not forgetting he rode against Foggy!! But in the last 6-7 years he tends to give up, not willing to take the little extra risk needed for a win. He can't win like that when guys like Bayliss, Haga, Xaus etc are more than willing to over-ride the bike for a win!!

Bayliss breaks Brno duck in style.
4 agree.
In my eyes Bayliss is the greatest sports man on two wheels, pure lion heart, hard nut on the bike but still very humble. Looking back after the battle between him and Edwards at Imola, he was a class act also when he lost that title. As you say Barry, Casey should learn something from Bayliss, but also Rossi can learn something from Troy. There is some magic in WSBK, the relation between the riders is so relaxed, and much less polluted by sponsors and cigarets...

Vermeulen savours podium repeat.
1 disagrees.
CV to Repsol?? He will have the same problem as Hayden. Tech3 could get him for less then Edwards and get much more back. Merely good riding is what everybody but Rossi, Casey and DP are showing, in perspective to these 3. Just look at CS and VR speed..... Rossi, CS and DP should get weight penalty (DP for sure
) to even MotoGP up a bit....

Who are the wild cards for Brands?? They could play some role in the fight for the title between Bayliss, Haga, Checa, Max N. and Corser. It will be very interesting to see if any of them (specially the Ducati boys) are so fast as it seems i BSB!

Kstadin Xarisku, I guess you are roughly 15-16 years old and very frustrated about a large amount pimples on ya face, don't worry it will be over in a year or 2.

Hayden loses his balance.
3 agree.
2 disagree.
I think Hayden did well, he still beat Edwards which is so popular (but usually perform less then he should/could on a race day). Hayden will do miles better on any other bike which is not a pocket bike build for tiny Spanish/Italian dudes. I know Edwards rode a "special" livery, but still it is not enough of an excuse to be that slow, nobody is hanging him!

ohhh how insulting, nothing better/harder to say?? Kstadin Xarisku, are you from Mars by the way? Just to inform you, usually when landing on earth you suppose to say "greeting from Mars", even if you meet the president of the USA. The point is that Corser (which is amazingly fast) very very seldom find the bike to perform 100%, there is always some vibration in the tyre/clutch/engine which he seems to feel and not manage to ignore or to ride around. Same goes to Edwards, which usually find the bike perfect on Saturday while some gremlins usually sneak on the bike during the night. The figures talk for themselves, Edwards still lack a win on a MotoGP,and he is not a rookie!
