im not sure they have come back from the ashes as you say. i dont take to much notice of tests, its making a tyre that lasts the distance in RACE conditions that counts.

To early to give even a qualified guess on that one. Their biggest problem might turn out to be that they don't have a champion rider right now. Allthough I expect Pedrosa to do well I just can't see him dominate Rossi and Stoner. So I voted no.

in that case im with curve

the gap in performance has narrowed to be a lot closer IMO but, not quite good enough.

there would have to be a bigger margin for the repsols and the yamahas to close out this championship.....
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Mekizo @ Jan 30 2008, 06:12 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>.... mate at least im an aussie that doesnt like stoner!!!

Not a true Aussie then.

I voted no - Stoner and Rossi will dominate the championship again.
 
Too early to tell
Michelin had great qualifying tyres last season too, but we have very little information on their race tyres.
Just like last season I think the advantage will vary from track to track.
