The "DOCTOR" is a Ducati jockey now , not much of a title hope for him. Stoner is up and gone already , its looking good for Honda
Big P eh ?

The only motor sport for me is Formula 1 :D Although I did follow Moto GP for a while when I was young and thought motor bikes were the bee's knees. Damn I hate getting old...

For sure Honda going to be hard to beat especially running four factory bikes Stoner may not have it all his own way imho as for Yamaha they are going to struggle unless they find more power. No hope for the doctor this year I think they are looking at next year with a whole new bike when the 1000cc come into play

Lost interest in F1 after Schumacher retired and the started with rule changes that relay turned F1 into A procession the race was qualifying and that was relay it, moto gp is going sort of the same way at the moment

Ok , did`nt know they were going up to litre again , Ducati withdrew from WSB (my fave) to concentrate effort and money on
GP class , strange as their success in street sales was with the road bike spin off.
Fair play in taking on the might of the Jap factories , Honda being the giant .

Ah good old Schumie... Some of the rule changes have been ridiculous IMO over the past few years. Especially getting rid of refuelling. It's now exclusively about tyres which is a bit daunting. And Schumie's return last year was a big let down. Can only wait and see if he does better this year. May give Moto another try...

Schumacher did quite well in testing hopefully he will see a return to form this year he is a great draw for the sport just as Rossi is in moto gp.

The Honda's over the last few years have been the bikes to beat both for power and reliability but for some reason they just couldn't get it together, seemed to be to much internal politics interfering with things.

Mick Doohan / Repsol Honda certainly got it together , that was a 500 stroker though.
Oz throws up more than its share of top bikers. WSB is a good breeding ground. Tho few have cracked moving up to G.P from it. -- strange topic for an Escort website eh ! Still a fast ride is a fast ride ,

Ya I am a big fan moto gp, ya gotta respect rossi a true legend. Can't wait for the IOM TT and road racing thats where my heart is. Formula 1 had a good season last year better than some of the gp races. I love all motorsport but cars are too expensive to race so I moved to bikes.

Doohan was a class act all right I will bet Honda regret the day they let Rossi go to Yamaha imagine if he was still there they would have to build a new room for all the silver ware. A few good riders have come up to gp Spies and Crutchlow are showing well so far never rated Toseland though he doesn't seem to be cutting it in WSB since he went back. Got it in one a fast ride of one sort or another gets the blood pumping :D
