Their colours certainly look far better than Rossi's... Stoner look fit and rearing to go... its going to one exciting season...Originally posted by xionite View PostOnly a biker knows why a dog sticks his head out of a car window.

Ben Spies suffers early crash
Ben Spies suffered an early crash on the first day of 2011 MotoGP testing at Sepang - but still sits fifth fastest, and top Yamaha, as of 1pm.
Despite his position on the timesheets, Spies has completed just 12 laps, the least of any rider, although he has been back out since the fall.
The Texan is only 0.312sec behind fastest man Dani Pedrosa (Repsol Honda) and almost two tenths clear of team-mate and world champion Jorge Lorenzo.

Dovizioso doubts Rossi can repeat 2004
Andrea Dovizioso believes it will be much harder for fellow Italian Valentino Rossi to repeat his stunning debut Yamaha MotoGP victory with new team Ducati.
On paper, the Desmosedici is far more competitive than the M1 had been when Rossi left Honda at the end of 2003.

Randy Mamola gives his unique view on Valentino Rossi and Ducati
January 31, 2011
By Henny Ray Abrams
Some of that can be put to the tires and tire temperature. The Bridgestones that Stoner used to win the 2007 MotoGP World Championship no longer exist. Nor does the tire Rossi rode to the 2008 title. The tires now have to work on every platform and the machines that can best adapt are the ones that excel. The Ducati, historically, has not been among them.
What does this all add up to?
