Depuniet is cool, but i dunno, we'll see how consistent he is.
Id much rather put my faith in Melandri, hes less likely to crash i think.
WTF is up my my little buddy Elias, cmon dude, we know you can do better.
Burgess and Rossi combined can make any bike competetive i think. those two are a great combo.
The Duc is already a great bike, it doesnt need developement as such, it more needs riders that can rie it.
Capirossi used to be able to but then came the 800s and it changed, then stoner and that one rookie kid riding the Pramac Duc, those two seem like the only ones capable of riding the Duc fast.
In all fairness tho, i think Nicky can win on the Duc if he just gets more time. that buck wild thing is so his style, problem is, hes been on a Honda for so long i doubt he remember fully how to ride a wild bike.

Well, i still think lorenzo have what it takes to become a good champ. Good, i said, not great. Lets face it people... its relatively easy to win when you jump 5 sec in front of everybody in the first lap... Dani does it, Casey does it, Lorenzo did it in estoril last year... only the Doc can do what he does... win from 4th, from 9th, from 13th, with a slower bike, with inferior tire, in the rain, with Ike in Indi... anywhere, anytime. I wish he still can find a true rival at his level...
Watch for Melandri and Edwards in Le Mans...

On a good day, Stoner and Rossi can duke it out the entire race.
I believe he's Rossi's closest rival. That boy is good, and he's still getting better.
But yes, I've yet to see anyone pull off the damn near impossible comebacks like Rossi can, and def no one can ride a less than ideal bike to the podium like him.
Edwards is def unto something, he's been testing and qualifying better than usual, then come sunday, something always happens.
This season is shaping up to be one of the better ones in recent years. Too bad more of the Japanese manufacturers are thinking of pulling out.
Let some of these major sponsors quit, like repsol, marlboro, rizzla, and MotoGP will die almost instantly.
