I took the checkered flag on this news by one second.  A single second.

Sometimes I think the "Racing" part of the "Racing & Trackdays" forum is a contest to see how fast somebody can post a link to an article on superbikeplanet.com.   ;D

Hopefully nobody thought I was complaining--just some observational humor.  I think the "dueling links" format of the discussions here is funny too, but not in a bad way.

In fact, if I read an article at supebikeplanet that I'm interested in, I stop here next, since I can count on a discussion.

Should we be reading something into the fact that there hasn't been a lot in the press about Bayliss' test after the first day?  Wasn't this his last day of testing?

Dear Ducati:

Thanks for the test ride.  I now know what your problem is.  Melandri and Hayden aren't Austrailian.

Sincerely,
Troy Bayliss

....."It didn't take long to get back into it but, before anyone gets any ideas, I will also say that I'm happy to be heading back to the airport and towards Australia and home this evening: I have no intention of returning to racing! Having said that, I have had fun and I hope at the same time that I've been of use ....

About a second off of Stoner's pace...similar to every other rider not named Stoner. Hopefully he can tell them why.

Seems to be a bit of information in this statement:

"Working with Troy has been useful because he has a very different riding style to Vittoriano" commented Filippo Preziosi, "and so it's been interesting and beneficial to hear his impressions of the GP9 also. We worked on chassis set-ups that are pretty different from those which we usually use and the results were promising although we need to look at this further."
