  • LOL! And he'll lose all the respect as soon as Marquez makes an aggressive pass (which he will in due time) at him

      @R-Series: I guess that was the original plan and thought process behind Ducati hiring Rossi i.e. to make a competitive bike for 2012 and beyond. Efforts on GP11 is just the consequence of fans' anticipation...
      Yeah I understand
      but I really want them to be title contenders atleast near the end of the season. Simply fast enough to make #27 and #1 wet their pants
      Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

      • Rossi is going to RULE in 2O12.

        Nicky'll prolly do well with the big GP12 too.


        been thinking...

        Simoncelli weighs about 25 kilos MORE than Pedrosa.

        that's like half a Pedrosa extra.

        Dani weighs between 49 kilos to 51 kilos
        Sic weighs around 74 kilos.

        that says a lot about Marco.. he is bloody fast.

        all he needs to do is shave of a few pounds if he wants hasten his first MotoGP win.

          somehow I feel that Ducati isn't going to be able to beat Honda this season...Yamaha would be behind them for sure...and even the Honda of Dovi maybe....but at the moment Stoner, Pedrosa and sic are quite far ahead...the gap is too big....its gonna take something radical to beat them (or maybe a ride like Laguna-08)....,

          Of course, all this is coming from an armchair enthusiast, one who would be happy if he is proved wrong this time...

          • At Laguna, Casey was fast in a straight and Yamaha stable in corners, more than cork screw, the place where VR went on the outside gave me goosebumps.

            '11 is a different ball game. Ducati is fast on a straight (not as fast as '07-'08) but braking & cornering isn't its forte. At least as of now.

            (From an armchair enthusiast's POV) VR will podium because of his sheer brilliance. It indeed is fun to watch him ride.

            Of the new guys on grid, I liked Simo's skills since 125's. Racing should be such. Bang fairings and bodies, but don't take your rival out, rather beat 'em.

                    Don't Cheek The Beak, Or Why Marco Simoncelli Has Been Called To Face Race Direction At Barcelona | MotoMatters.com | Kropotkin Thinks

                    Words against Race Direction and Sic is called in and when Stoner mocks Race Direction in front of the media for fining him over the punching issue nothing happens. Strange!!!

                      Totally! SuperSic is getting mauled.

                      OT: Man it would be good if VR and SIC just team up and run over stoner in the next race.

                          • Almost after every race there is something or the other to pick up! Since when have we watched a real race, one man runs in the front, a couple of passes in the whole race and the top 5 positions are done! The real 'racing' is between 6th to 11th position. Race gets boring after every round. off track event is the only thing that keeps the TRP rating from going down..

                            Shift in focus on speculating the next season's factory teams will happen after the teams are announced!

                              • So,Pedrosa won't be racing at Catalunya..Good for him! He's also uncertain about Silverstone..

                                If it goes the same way Ped is definitely out of the race for championship title...Sundays would be boring again for me..
                                If you ride like there's no tomorrow...worry not there won't be!
