Not at all pal which is why I put out my thoughts even though at the risk of being the starter of a probable inflammatory argument

Agree to your views. Nice read thanks...

Exactly what is called passé:

so the contribution by any rider is upto how well they understand and communicate with their colleagues is very important. and well it also depends on how serious the guys in the factory take you.

Perfectly Put.
1. Ben - Thats why his elbowz style is missing right now ! ADAPTATION
2. And the perfect example for the second line is MaRco Melandri ! Ducati thought what he says n wants is bullshit and so did Honda ! Wonder what Yamaha is gonna say.

PS: Mr.Sumit what are you doing here ? Is your honeymoon over already !?

Lol ! I thought ppl on honeymoon generally don t carry mobiles pods laptops n stuff to keep them occupied ! Sorry You must be an experienced candidate ! Or Well Sheel are you too in an honeymoon now?

Yah and back to topic ! The last 2 races will be a b!itch ! Wonder which position the broken clay doll Dani ped will finish !

Last OT, so please excuse

Last OT from me too
My honeymoon is postponed to December due to lack of leaves (couple of months back took two weeks leaves for my leh ride) and now manager not letting me go. Can't take long leaves in quick succession.

Coming back to topic. Yeah last two races will be a lot of things to watch out for...
Stoner trying for runners up.
Dani trying to defend it
Rossi trying to win the last two with Yamaha
Jlo showing his dominance
Spies proving his worth for factory ride next year
Dovi! well he'll just try to prove his worth in HRC

Will be interesting to see Carlos Checa after three years of gap in motogp

Sumit Bhai Congrats.....many many wishes for a happy and exciting married life ahead.....
first and last OT from me..,

Looking forward to last 2 races....sadly the season is going to end i.e. no races for coming 4 months..., I already feel sad....

Regarding Rossi being a development genius....this is very well described in a book I was reading -- "motogenius" (book on Rossi by Mat oxley-2006 edition)....given a lot of instances where Rossi and burgess quickly figured out the right thing to do....
even in 2000 when Rossi joined 500s- Mick had just retired leaving Criville the top rider...who took the development in the wrong direction i.e. more and more power- which doesn't helps if you can't put that power to use, Honda quickly realized that Rossi is good and followed his lead thereafter,

Even the RCV was rated bad by all the riders first time they rode it, Rossi's inputs made it better

then again in 2004 Rossi and Burgess turned the M1 around in just a couple of months....

At one point Burgess even says that Rossi is much better at developing than Doohan, also when Rossi replaced Doohan- all the mechanics/team were relieved as Doohan was dead serious and fanantic about winning....creating stress for all....whereas Rossi's working idea had "having fun" at its centre..

oops....too much praise of Rossi.....excuse me please..., effect of reading the book.....

hope marco kicks arse in WSBk, a rivalry with Max can develop as well...they both do have a history...
