    Be none any smarter in the paddock than Old Rossi I'd dare to say.

    The one tyre for all rule is a shitter. The Honda on Bridgestone and Yamaha on Mitchies would probably make for better racing.

    To be fair, he had the same thing handed to him as everyone else: A front tyre that will let go without warning. He had to juggle it just like everyone else. Difference being he didn't drop it.

    Of course, neither did JL, and he was comfortably quicker. I'm starting to like JL more and more.

    Rossi needs to start setting himself up to win more, qualifying on the third row just doesn't cut the mustard.

    I totally retract my earlier comments about Crashlow having a chance in the factory Yamaha team.

    .
    Yeah, but it's fun to go fishing. I reckon Mugello is gonna be a tough one to pic. Lorenzo goes pretty well there, the Ducati's will be fast, and MM is struggling (again/still) with the Honda.

    Maybe Marquez should go to Yamaha next year?

    Flossi would be so badly fucked.
