Let's see what happens this time.
I know but last year he was also not comfortable with michellin...so he switched to bridgestones in the middle of the season.......

I think this year he is gonna rock as he is very much comfortable with bridgestone and the new RC212v.....

if you simoncelli fans are lucky, you might just see him taking part in the first 2 rounds in the World SuperBike championship.

marco, has expressed his desire to race for the factory team, which will make its debut on 1st of March in phillip Island.

Marco along with Nakano, got a chance to test the new RSV4 during the recent test and lapped just a second slower than Biaggi & Nakano.

fingers crossed.

Dovi on board the RC212V and hopefully a more consistent performance from Lorenzo will definitely spruce up the 09 championship. However, I feel it's again going to boil down to Rossi, Stoner and Pedrosa as far as the fight for the title is concerned and now that Rossi has tasted blood again after two agonizing years of drought, he is THE Man to beat.

I would love to Rossi, Stoner back in action fighting it out on the track. Stoner would be eager to settle his scores with him.

Although Kawasaki´s factory team have withdrawn from MotoGP the Ninja ZX-RR development continues rapidly, with the bike available for use by a private team in 2009.

Monster Energy Drink Sponsor Valentino Rossi for a whopping 2.5 million u.s $ . Kawasaki and poor John Hopkins lost the deal.

This would also make way to the Tech 3 Yamaha to get the Monster sign on their bikes next year.
James Toseland already has the Monster sign on his helmets...
