MOTOGP » Stoner wins Dutch TT, Rossi falls.

Stoner wins again because of best bike/electronics. Stoner has no talent but the bike allows any skill-less idiot to win. EXACTLY - thats why we have had 4 Ducati's at the top for the last two races LOL.....

Stoner is now quicker because of the ECU not TC, the more TC cuts in the slower the lap. The Duke had an aggressive power delivery which means the TC was working overtime, same problem Kawasaki are having. Now that they have tamed the power delivery he can wind the power on a lot harder without the TC interferring all the time which then produces quicker lap times.

Stoner has the best bike, electronics Blah, blah,blah. Rossi is the best no arguments but give Stoner a break, he managed to get a pig of a Duke twice on the podium. Having the best bike was 2001 when Rossi was basically the only one on the new 990, then 2002 when he was the only one to have 12 months data.

I agree terrazzo, Ducati must be well chuffed "NOT" having 3 bikes at the back of the grid every race. Even Stoner's recent performances cannot take away the embarassment of that, being at the back of the Grid is any manufacture's worst nightmare. Melandri is a good rider but his head needs sorting out, another 2-3 laps at Donington and Stoner would have lapped him.
