Sportbike? Street?

Rossi is FAR from a sportbike rider and MotoGP bikes are just a tad more than street bikes.

As good as Rossi is he is gonna have to reel stoner in. Casey is almost 100% and railing at Qatar. Nicky is struggling with the Duc but he'll get it dialed in a few races.

I'll take Stoner.....I thought Haydens flat track roots would suit him on the Ducati, but it seems that maybe Stoner is the only one capable of riding it. Melandri had a hell of a time on it last year. ....even though it is an all new bike this year.....

Was hoping Hayden would like the Duke, sad to hear it shakes him.
Sure, Stoner looks very strong as does Rossi, what's new. I'll
tell ya what's new, Lorenzo. He was very strong till the accident last year.

Pulling for Hayden, money on Rossi.............

Stoners championship seaosn netted him $10m from Ducati...add a few other sponsors like Alice etc and it soon racks up. He's still trying to nab my farm manager too btw, but he aint getting him.

Hurt in practice/quali's. Sounded like a back injury, sure hope he can work through it and show some pace.

With the dismantling of the Factory Kawi team he lost his ride and just moved to WSBK on a Honda team. Did 11th and 12th in his first race I think.

130 mph high side in qualifying, stitches in his chest & painful back. His best laps were his last 7 so that's encouraging.

Yeah Nicky really seemed upbeat about the race despite his troubles. I think this season will be similar to last. It will take him a while to figure things out and the second half of the season he'll be a solid top 4 or 5 guy. The difference is, once he gets things working, the next few years he'll be back on track and be a contender again.

So he went from battling for midpack positions in MotoGP to battling for midpack positions in WSBK?
Awesome!
