Moto GP Predictions- Gran Premio Cinzano D' Italia

[cornercamping]

In other words they've been coasting so far this year but now they're gonna try really hard? Ê

Nah, I think that they just realized that this years Desomdici isn't what they thought it would be, so their bringing out last years bike and are gonna take everyone to school.  That's my guess, but we'll see.  I'd hate to be a factory rider, and then look like a worthless moron infront of the CEO of my sponsor, especially at my home track.

Last year's bike would not compete well this year unless they did lots of motor improvements. They may handle a bit better than the 04, but they need lots more power. That may be part of the reason why they are struggling.

Remember that at Welkom, the 2004 bikes were an average of 15 MPH faster at the end of the straights than last year and the winning time at the end of the race was over 30 seconds faster than 2003.

 Yeah, but since they are doing this, you gotta figure they must have done something to those bikes to make them competitive.  Who knows, they may just have a bottle of NOS under the seat  :P ;D

You can't go backwards or you're going to get left behind in a hurry.  Going back to last year's bike only works for Frankie Chili.   ;D

You never know what those nutcases in the Corse dept. have brewing ;)

My guess is going to be Sete, but I have a feeling it will be a race between Max and Rossi with Rossi taking the win. What a better venue to show the dominance of Rossi!

Yeah, then Rossi can show the CEO of Ducati who da man is... so that way Rossi can get a multmillion $ contract from them too, and ride a Duc next season  :P ;D

Rossi has a 2 year contract with Yamaha. He will be riding a Yamaha next year you freaking clown!

Bah.. he could get out of that contract pretty quick. I think Ducati could buy him out..

and I knew he had a 2 year.  I read all about it on the MGP site when he signed it.  ;)

Yamaha is not stupid enough to let Rossi out of this contract and besides... Ducati can't afford Rossi

[diesel748]

there is no way Rossi takes a pay cut to go to Ducati!! he is stuck on the Yamaha for at least another year and a half.
True Dat Rev.

Ditto on both points.  And Rossi seems to be very happy where he is.
