Stoner on a sat team complete with the bottom of the barrel .... tires.
Yeah i know I was just making a comparison between those two and their respective teams and machinery. Dovi is great but If he is so much better than Stoner in his Rookie year that means he should be the title winner this year right? Especially since he is on the rc212v.

Man...give him some time, the factory bike and the satellite is 2 different machines. With that said, I think he's doing a damn fine job so far,coming close to podiums on more than one occasion. I just hope HRC have more faith in the guy and start developing the bike around him as I really do think Dovizioso is championship material. Honda needs to drop Pedrosa, pick up Aoyama.... and develop a whole new bike that is capable of running up front consistently with both riders. It just makes sense to drop Pedrosa, especially with all the injuries he's sustained and his contract coming to an end..... coupled with the fact that Aoyama is showing real promise as racer.

QFT. However, Aoyama will be placed in Moto 2. Honda wants to win the last 250 and the first Moto2 and Hiroshi is their best shot.

Yeah they at honda should dump pedrosa but not hire aoyama. There are many others getting ready to come up better than him. Plus it won't happen due to the rookie rule.
