The people,not the money.Look at Ducati with their budget.In my opinion they should worry about new engineers instead of new riders for next season.It sure seems like there is someone conservative chicken .... somewhere high up pulling the brakes on bold idears and so on.
Aren't they just about the only factory having a problem for about a year on average before they do something about it.The competition is moving way faster than that.
I'm hoping for Capirossi/Vermulen and maybe Spies that they are going to transform the bike from one year to the other like Yamaha did for this year.From ..... to one of the best.

Dream on man. I wish the Suzuki's were better and I can't stand them at all. I wished they were fast cause they need to get in PEdrosas way. Valentino's to.

That's a good point.The main thing i'm hoping for this season is that Stoner wins the whole thing anyway.If Capirossi could score a few podiums or a win i would be happy.

The million dollar question is: Is the setup right?
These bikes have more similarities than differences. The Suzuki has power enough but doesn't get it down in the corner exits. That sounds to me like a setup problem.
maybe a close look at the riders arn't such a bad idea after all. Give capirex another year and will see.

I don't think the Suckzuki has much for power right now cause it always seems they struggle real bad anywhere on the track. I thought in the corner it would be very balsy but who knows the issues they have. Hopper had a good thing going last year and I think he really messed up switching teams after he seemed to have it somewhat sorted.

They are not bad, not bad at all, in straight line power, problem is that you don't notice that as long as they loose more out of the corners than they gain on the actual straight. That make's it look slow.
