Certainly got that bike in shape quickly, another decent rider with Rins and who knows, next season they could dominate

I would love to see Rossi on one just to see what he could get out of it

You going then pal?

A Rossi win would be nice just to see the reaction from his fans at home but as a ducati fan I would love to see Dovi on the top step.

After someone blocking the racing line in q2 still maybe the rookie on the slow yamaha will take the factory ride next season.

To put it in perspective Marquez has got to win around forty more races to catch Rossi's win total and will he still be racing and be as competitive at forty? I very much doubt it, lets see if he ever goes to anther team and wins, clearly he is a great racer but the youth will be snapping at his heels very soon, Quartararo for one
I think its obvious Rossi is past his best but he just loves racing so you have to respect him for that and he is probably responsible for at least an extra 25% or more on the gate figures at every Moto GP race, in fact I would go as far as to say a lot of todays racers owe a lot to him in terms of earnings. Moto GP will be a lot poorer for the day he goes. I cant remember the last time I saw a celebration at the end of the race like he used to do when he was winning, Lorenzo tried it once or twice but it wasn't quite the same
I might be biased....I live at number 46!

And the most talented rider ever on it, funny though as the Honda is supposed to be the hardest bike on the grid to ride, ask Crutchlow or lorenzo, neither has really mastered it. Conversely the yamaha is supposed to be the easiest most forgiving, as they have tried to get the straight line speed from it the handling has deteriorated which is why I said before rossi never should have parted from the real doctor who made it work for him.

Sounds like it's clear cut, you like rat boy, I like Rossi

Best all round bike, Honda are miles ahead and have been for a long time, forget Cal C the only thing they have in common is it's a bike with a Honda badge on, one is absolute cutting edge the other is not, as for Lorenzo, lost the plot

What did Honda do with Ducati's dominance, designed the SP1 / 2 created a twin And bet Ducati at their own game.

WSB Honda are designing a new bike and poaching Batista from Ducati. Bet you they blow Ducati next season

Pointless discussion, opinions, show me some facts

I bet Hondas R&D blow the others away

Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
