as you posted those are times from a "post season" testing session. 

qualifying and race results are what counts.

these guys are all playing games and such with the bikes for "test sessions".  i have a feeling the ducati will be fast next season but without stoner on it, it doesn't place higher than 4th regardless of who is on it.

well mosey on over to the race forum and put your money where your mouth is. season wagers are stickied at the top of the section.  Grin

James Toseland could put it on the box.

+1.  Unless they decide to add test results to the points system.

It would be a grand finale for a wonder career.  Rossi should look closely at ending his career on a high note and not pull a Brett Favre!
Isn't Brett sitting at 7 wins 1 lose for the season?
I'm pretty sure Rossi would take that ANY season
Just saying!!

They are both in essentially the same class of athlete and most do get a bit on the demanding side .... not saying it's a good thing

I think he sticks with Yamaha this year and goes onto Ducati year afterwards and tries to win a all Italian Championship. He's just posturing and getting Yamaha where he wants them.

I personally think Rossi will go to Ducati eventually and then retire from the team when he's ready.

Can't imagine Rossi going near Ducati while Casey's still there....unless Casey continues the "act" into 2010, in which case(y) he'll be gonzo.

Besides, imo, Rossi's only condition for signing will be to ride a bike developed with/by his team......it ain't about the money.
