    Oh yeah!

    Don't forget to tell us why you vote the way you do. I reckon Edwards will do it because he's super aggressive and hungry as hell after the Honda balls up a couple of years ago.

    Nah, Edwards will fall off, just like that french bloke did in the Superbikes the other week on the second corner. Too hungry.

    The only way for any of the others to beat the Doctor is to ride out of their skins. Trouble is, they'll fall off trying to do what seems to come naturally to him.

    Rossi won't have half the domination he had last season but he will sure as hell be better than most of them most of the time, and that should be good enough for the championship.

    Is he lighter than all of them too?
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    BTW watched the Paeroa races on Sky last night after I went home.

    What was up with Johan at those races? He looked so competitive at Wanganui and just fell away from them on the faster circuit.

    Surely the 600 isn't that uncompetitive with him onboard?

    Rossi - That boy has the natural skill to make him unstoppable even on an average bike.

    who else

    Rossi got it. Could be close with edwards, I think hes got a big question mark on him. I seen a picture of him at phillip island testing bike at full lean with inside hande off the bike doing the finger to the camera. Still who wants Honda to keep on winning?

    Rossi fan club- maybe. But by cripes, we all know he can ride around the wind let along like it and it sounds as though the yamaha isn't far off the pace of the Honda this year... I think Rossi could win on last years stroker let alone this years only slightly slower yammy.

    The only thing that will stop Dr Rossi winning is the bike. I'm yet to be convinced that the new Yamaha is a consistently better package than the Ducati.

    Colin Edwards reminds me of my all time hero, Mr Kevin Schwantz.

    But only since Scott Russel doesn't race anymore. Those Texans seem like the most down to earth people in the paddock. I like real people and I hate phonies. The Italians and the Spaniards seem manufactured to me. (With the exception of Frankie Chili of course)

    If I thought he had a hope in hell, I'd love to see Jezza McWilliams doin' it or Shakey Byrne. Not because I like Aprillia particularly but both of those guys worked for Fast Bikes mag and thay are NUTTERS

    I like crazy people. Hence the company I keep

    Even forgetting the fact he is on a new bike (Honda only relased him for testing from April According to a sports night.).
    Rossi could win it on a FXR150 if he really put his mind to it.

    Absolute nutcase, but also a legend in his own lunchbox.
