  • ^^ why not, no one knows the specs and the effect that it would have with the current 800cc engine, not even ducati.
    they havent tried the new chassis with the 800cc, its only been tried with the GP12s 1000cc engine

    Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

      Ducati has confirmed it will roll out a radical new bike for Valentino Rossi in Assen this weekend called the GP11.1


      It also features a new gearbox called the DST – Ducati Seamless Transmission


      and is designed to match the quickshift system that Honda developed so successfully for its factory RC212V
      hallelujah! Valentino's gonna kick Assen!!!

        • Being on fourth engine doesn't mean hayden's other three engines are down. He has lost one in estoril I guess. Others are still useable.
          Just that they have clocked race distance at least once. Correct me if I am wrong guys

                • another one, Aoyama expected to replace chotu (Dani), if he decides to sit out for Assen.

                  now I really expect the japanese rider to be if not faster, atleast equal to speed with Sic, as they have been in one to one battles in 250cc before

                      • rossi and the ducati team seem to be very confident with GP 11.1!The 800cc engine with The GP12s chassis should stir some excitement among other teams!Looks like this is going to be another eventful MotoGP!

                          I won't be surprised if it happened.
                          His autobiography mentions that he sneaked into Yamaha garage, checked the M1 for 2004, sat on it and gave his feedback, when he was still in contract with Honda.

                          Though checking out the bike is a lot different than testing on the track

                          Funny Incident: I got a lot of Rossi goodies (keychains, stickers, etc.) for my wife and now she is a Rossi fan. But seeing the results this year she has given an ultimatum that she will become a Stoner fan if Rossi doesn't win or get good results in the coming races. LOL!

                            I don't blame her or you. All Rossi's fault!

                            I think Aoyama will replace Pedrosa.

                            Pedrosa doubtful for Assen as Aoyama prepares to step in

                            UPDATE:

                            Tweet from David Emmett:

                            Someone asked me about Aoyama replacing Pedrosa: AOY will be using PED's engines, Akiyoshi will be using AOY's engines.
                            Alright Boyas, Here we go

                              Good for me:I had my wife watch rossi's race since the 2009 season

                              At times it happens that I miss out a practice or a qualifying session and she's the one who updates me..saying - "are you aware of the practice results for today..?"
