@j h, maybe it's just because Groupie doesn't like if Rossi win the race, and Groupie is sort of some people who seek revenge for the sake of Stoner, because in 2007 a lot of people think Casey Stoner take so many wins because of his mighty Ducati GP-7 (count me on those a lot of people). but the funny thing is, Ducati the worst bike? LMAO then one of these 3 must be the one who said some load of craps, either Livio Suppo that rate Stoner better than ever, or Casey Stoner that rate new GP8 Ducati has better acceleration, or Groupie that rate Ducati GP8 is the worst bike.

Colin Edward storm into last podium position on Le Mans, highest achievement from him in this season. He rides Yamaha pneumatic valve just on his third, could he do it easily? No, he fought very hard with Dani Pedrosa till the last lap to earn it. Sure thing, Colin ride a good bike that capable of winning, but NOT THE BEST. It's just a COMPETITIVE bike packages, now back to top form and as competitive as Honda and Ducati. On Qatar, Ducati (with Stoner) win race to create a terror for other teams. But 4 loses streak, and Ducati is the worst bike?? come on... is it so easy to point best or worst??

Groupie, what best bike? On Le Mans it's clear Rossi's Yamaha always outgunned by Pedrosa's Honda and Stoner's Ducati on strong acceleration and top end speed, but on lap 8 when all kind of tyres are fresh still, Rossi already grabed the lead and pulled away from them and win the race as the only Bridgestone rider on the podium. It is true that Pedrosa had some troubles and Stoner had his nightmare on Le Mans. Yet if Jorge Lorenzo has not enough skills to ride his 'best' bike plus this two advantages, could he storm into second with just almost 5 secs from race winner after left behind that far? After all, Lorenzo is the youngest rider to win a race in the premier class. (cont...)

MOTOGP » Stoner 'powerless' as troubles continue.

no more extreme top speed gap between Yamaha/Honda vs Ducati, no more difference brand of tyre. won at Qatar, but defeated twice at Jerez and Estoril. so Stoner come to China (1.2 km straight track) with a win is so needed because the situation seems to favour his mighty Ducati. That was a hard pressure, and under a real pressure, mistakes easily occured. yet it was a fatal blow for him, from both Yamaha/Rossi and Honda/Pedrosa, to break Ducati/Stoner's dominance on a looong straight track. 3 lose streak? More pressure for Stoner and Ducati eh? and as if all is not enough, first nightmare for Stoner on his Ducati, an engine failure in Le Mans. but one nice thing, Stoner still reach finish.

ermm 15. Marco Melandri ITA Ducati Marlboro Team (B) 46min 10.422 secs 16. Casey Stoner AUS Ducati Marlboro Team (B) 44min 47.085 secs how come it's 44 min, 2 minutes faster than Melandri? maybe the writer still can't believe about Casey Stoner has beaten by Marco Melandri?

I still can''t believe it, all Yamaha 1-2-3 and I still can''t believe about Lorenzo, how come?? oh btw, Bridgestone vs Michelin : 3 - 2 Valentino Rossi vs Casey Stoner : 4 - 1 tsk tsk tsk...

MOTOGP » Rossi smashes losing streak in China.

I don't think Shang Hai is a 'Bridgestone track'. Last year Rossi showed a great fight using Michelin, but Yamaha lack almost 20 kph in term of top speed on the straight track from Ducati. so it was the limit, Rossi can do no further. to tell the truth I just can't believe Rossi take his first win with Bridgestone tyre this fast, ESPECIALLY on a circuit with a 1.2 KM straight track. maybe it's because Yamaha had improved well, or Rossi had begin to adapt with Bridgestone tyre, I don't mind. I hope equal performance of Bridgestone and Michelin, and the most important no more extreme top speed gap, then the MotoGP race will be very intersting to see.

MOTOGP » Rossi 'had his big chance to go to F1'.

[The Yamaha ace has in the past hinted that he intends hanging up his motorcycle helmet no later than the age of 31 or 32.] With 2 years of losses, then it will be 33 or 34 (or I hope Rossi stay still when he thinks winning is possible) ah... again, Rossi to F1 issue... tsk tsk I think, now Rossi is busy enough . He need to put all of his effort and concentratetion to adapt the combination of Bridgestone with Yamaha M1, instead of do racing with F1 car. I hope there is no further distraction for Rossi, since this year IF he doesn't win MotoGP World Championship, he will looks stupid all the time, beaten by 3 times consecutively.

MOTOGP » Bridgestone: MotoGP tyre war even.

tyre war's result so far, Bridgestone vs Michelin : 2 - 2 Bridgestone riders war's result so far, Valentino Rossi vs Casey Stoner : 3 - 1 tsk tsk

MOTOGP » Rossi smashes losing streak in China.

[Posted by Kees de Vries : Chu Chu, The better Honda and Yamaha packages doesn't explain the clear fact that Casey is consistenly slower than last year, 11 seconds!! compared to last year in China only. Either it is mechanical or mental but in both cases they are (Ducati and Casey) proffesionals and if cleared out they will come out a lot stronger..] When there is no real pressure, people can do things very good, but when there is some real pressure, people can easily make mistakes. so is Stoner and his Ducati team. to come in a race with a need to win (some pressure), Yamaha and Honda both are in a good shape to fight at the front (real pressure), such an unease mind can inflict Stoner
