There is little doubt that Rossi has been psyched out totally and is unable to push the Ducati at all.
Is it the Ducati? No , not completely.
Is it Stoner (Your talent is less than your ambition). No
No, it was , indeed, Jumkie, who did sneak into the pit box, not to sabotage the bikes (not necessary, Ducati already did that), but to leave a note for Valentino. After years of honing his barbed wit on the hapless Talpa, Jumkie composed a letter so devastating , that Valentino has lost the plot completely. He is even starting to look for Karel for a tow. Karel who?? Yes, we dont know who he is either.
What was in the letter..........?
" Vale, you might as well quit because you,ve done nothing, you,re going nowhere..............." No, that was Rampaging Roy Slaven (non-Aussies wont get this)
"Vale, if you win, I will organise a slumber party with Talpa, Esco, Nino, Roger and Evolution, and all of you can wear little yellow raincoats and ride around on little yellow goats , shouting "Vale you,re the GOAT ,you,re the GOAT"
That's what finally broke Vale.....................
