...and now they have a lot more money.

they may have undervalued casey but they may also not have had the resources to do what he asked.. or at least as quickly as he asked.
we can hypothesize forever.

We don't know, but if I was Casey and told Ducati this or that needed changing after winning on the thing...and they do nothing...

then Valentino comes in and they are changing things to try to suit him...

I'd be happy to be at Honda...

just like Vale was happy to be at Yamaha...and maybe now Ducati. Time will tell on this move. Tongue

Maybe...except they had the money to offer J-Lo twice what he was getting paid at the time.  Undecided  They had 2 MotoGP champs on the bike, and it still took Rossi/Burgess to get real changes. Doesn't look good.

Who really knows the whole story...but I can easily see Stoner's point of view.

Good start for Rossi this weekend.  Stoner/Pedro leading the charge.  Lorenzo was fighting the bike a bit during fp1 and nearly tossed it in the same spot Dovi went down, but saved the lowside.  Hopkins is hanging around the back markers... not all that bad to be honest.

Man, Elias is really stuggling with the Bridgestones.  Poor dude. 

Hopper is doin' ok.  And he's still a douche. 

This whole "Repsols-up-front" thing sucks.  I'm bored with it already.

Can someone throw SPOILER in the title?  Yes, we all know there will be race results in this thread, but this way we can't avoid having 'that argument' later.  Gracias.

Surprising indeed to see Rossi so far up the order.

I'm sure Stoner and George aren't concerned with Pedro and Rossi, knowing that they can't last the distance.

Dunno what's up with The Ben.

Didn't Rossi comment in an earlier MotoGp article that he really likes this track?

Again, if Pedrosa was not hurt, he would be scary fast.

I don't think his injury is affecting his practice performances.  That's my opinion anyway.

Looks like Hopper is going to score a few points.   waytogo
