<{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>What happens to Capirossi ? He's going succesful . I think he just trying to trust himself and his bike
. I guess he'll join championship challenge like Rossi and Hayden.
What do you think about that ?
This it not much of a surprice. He won both at Bruno and Sepang last year. The tracks fit the stones tires well and he like the tracks.
Difference this year is that he had to fight a motivated Rossi that hasn't allready cleared the championship. That's why he only got second this year compared to last year.
What is interesting is to see what he can do at PI where he had a bad crash last year. I can't remember how he did in '04 and will check that later but the bike has obviously changed a lot since that and comparison is of limited value.
Unless the rest of the season continue as unpredicatble as until the summer break he will not seriously challenge Hayden, Pedrosa and Rossi.
But chances are he end up in fourth and that's not bad considering his reduced performance when injured.
