Nah.......... Stoner on the Duke this year will be awesome. Rossi will bin it and blame the sand leaving Edwards to finish second and Hopkins will recover from injury over night and amaze everybody.
What's going on with that Honda? The rear wheel sticks out about 2 foot from the back of the tailpiece.......no wonder Nicky's not looking to comfortable on it.

Plan worked beautifully!<o =""></o>lebowski said:
<o =""></o>Well Tina had her face rubbed in the sand big time. As did Yamaha. Probably goes to prove that preseason testing ain?t worth an awful lot when it comes to predicting the first race.<o =""></o>
<o =""></o>If it is to be believed that Yamaha have forsaken top end for cornering consistency they may just be making a few phone calls to Japan today. <o =""></o>
<o =""></o>Having a bike that is the same at the end of the race as at the start sounds a good idea. Did you notice when Stoner put in the fastest lap? Lap 22, the last lap, just like ?Tina used to do.<o =""></o>
<o =""></o>At least they can console themselves that not all tracks have a nice long straight. But if you watch the race again check out how quick Stoner and the Ducati pulled out of the turns. It doesn?t just have top end power. Indeed if it did, wouldn?t ?The Gratest? have been able to do something more? When ?Tina did get past I didn?t notice him ?gap? Stoner in the slightest.<o =""></o>
<o =""></o>Having a bike that?s easy on it?s tyres didn?t work either, if that Duke is so much of a monster, how come it didn?t use up it?s rubber? As for the fuel worries, I didn?t notice Stoner taking it steady worrying about mpg?<o =""></o>
<o =""></o>It wasn?t just Yamaha though, what are Honda going to do? Not only outpaced down the straight, none of their riders could get any front end feel. Even the Bridgestone guys were suffering and they were supposed to have the best fronts last year. So will Honda do something? They weren?t too quick to help Hayden last year?<o =""></o>
<o =""></o>Hopkins and Suzuki must be quite pleased, good result for someone riding injured. <o =""></o>
<o =""></o>And now for the Rossi tinted version of events?.<o =""></o>
<o =""></o>Shouldn?t 'Tina ask for number 2 next year? Be more apt all things considered.<o =""></o>

...Keep diggin', Jon-boy..keep diggin'! Should have a nice deep hole to crawl into by the end of the season! :-:
Not much mention of your "lost love" Nicola (and I mean lost!) in that little rant, was there? Not much mention of your second stringer, either: slow Dani - ten seconds off the pace! Never mind, you just jump on the Stoner bandwagon and I'll just keep me powder dry. If that Duke's so fast (and it's very, very fast), you should try to remember that there was only one, other rider in the pack who could stay with it. :bow:
We'll take the twenty points (against the couple we got last year, at Jerez) and build on that for the rest of the season. :yo:
...Oh...And ya might try changin' the bait on that hook, M8.
...Looks dead in the water, to me! p0pc0rn41 :neenaw: :f

Not fishing (or rantifying either) as much as looking for a discussion.
Think there's enough if's and probablys in there.:dunno:
I keep atelling ya, I ain't no Nicky fan, he struggled as did just about all the Honda riders with the front end, apparently. Hence my question as to what or if Honda will do to sort it.
Personally I thought given the troubles Honda were having Dani did pretty well. If he hadn't run wide I think 3rd would've been more secure.
As for jumping on a bandwagon....not me, in fact I hope Ducati don't dominate. But it is a little hard not to be impressed after watching the display Stoner put in.
Incidently although Loris was on the move, he didn't seem to be on the ball as much as last year, you'd expect him to know if he had a good bike under him and react more forcefully :dunno:
You're right 'Tina did manage to stay in the slipstream, just. Dani couldn't keep the pace with his poor handling bike and Hopkins was riding hurt, so no real surprises there.
Still think 'Tina will do it though. He could quite easily have a 'Nicky' year and win the championship.
But if what we saw on Saturday holds true, Jerry and 'Tina are barking up the wrong tree.
Care to comment now?
