Crickets chirping in the distance............
 
Resigned or re-signed.
Easily misunderstood. Same word, opposite meanings.
English make no sense.

Kallio is never going to be a world champ, but I think he has done well first year into MotoGP. If we can believe that the Ducatis are all identical spec, then in theory, the Pramac bikes have the capacity to be as fast as Stoner.
 
well obviously he hasn't improved a lot while he was on the marlboro ducati.
i'm pretty confident that stoner could stay at the top if he was given a pramac
 
I have been in meetings all week and Business travel..
I care. I like Mika and he just may be a Stoner on the right machine. Meaning he could shock someone if given the right package. I say the same for Randy DePuniet. The guy is hella fast and on the Bridgestone is consistent.

Randy can run with the big boys on the right package. I would love to see him on the Tech 3 machine but we know who got that ride...

Any word on Tony Elias?
 
Well, I suppose someone needs to keep Pedrosa honest in the 'shittiest attitude' contest.

You can blame Kallio for not acting like you'd want to with the crashes, but he is a 100% racer and no quitter. I think that's what counts most with a race riders "attitude contest".

And no, apparently there really is no big difference between Pramac and the factory Ducati. Kallio said that there was propably some little extra to the factory machine, but propably nothing near as significant as with Honda's and Yamaha's satellite and factory bikes.

I'm sure Kallio will only get better with time. Let's see what happens.

Shoot I knew I missed it.

Glad to see that some Kallio fans are coming out of the wood work. Is there any true fans of his on this forum though? I am a fan of motorcycle racing and a fan of the riders (except Pedrosa of course) but I tend to lean towards Hayden and Spies when it comes down to who I am most passionate about. Is there anyone here who is a die hard Kallio fan. My wife likes him cause his name sounds cool when you say it all together.

Kallio who? Ohhh.... you mean the guy that continuously beat and embarrasses Nicky Hayden on an inferior Ducati? Well, that's good news I guess. What bugs me is he deserves the Ducati factory ride more than that Hayden guy.... if only he could sell bikes like Nicky.
