Wait, I thought Pedro couldn't go...that is him in this shot is it not?

Other.... PedroBot Version 2007. Not as fast, but still a decent rider.

PUIG!!! Let's see how he does compared to Dani.

That would be my vote!!!!




Dovi will get it!

Zemke

I think he will start, if Capirossi was passed as fit then Pedro probably will to, seems like you have to be missing a limb or something to be ruled out.
If he doesn't then I'd say they won't replace him or Okada if he's fit.

I really don't know much about the American riders, but I'd give it to one of them. Always give it to a hometown boy.

Well I assume Honda would not use that bike (maybe give it to Dovi) and put Okada or some other test driver with the new engine with obviously needs more development.

But Puig said that Dani will race in Laguna so ...

Puig is an evil creature. I always imagine he's keeping Dani enslaved to him through the use of hypnosis and thought-retardant drugs (which sadly have also stunted Dani's growth as a side effect). Anything Puig says can and SHOULD be used against him. Bleh. End of rant.

As for the bike at Laguna....won't they roll Okada out of mothballs and put him on it if he's fit?

I did see a suggestion from a wag somewhere that perhaps they should give nicky a go on dani's bike .

make a good movie that would

Schinici Itoh if Okada has a broken arm. Is Itoh still racing in the Japanese superbike championship?
Probably be Zemke though.
