10's of millions of dollars trying to figure out the chassis, and as it turns out, all they had to do was ask Carlos Checa. Its the tires. http://www.superbike...Jan/120104a.htm Simply oversimplified

Barring some unexpected win either in Sepang or Valencia, Ducati is going winless this year. Frankly I do not see the bike improving by leaps and bounds next year, so I highly doubt Ducati will win a race next year either. From that scenario, is it a certain outcome Rossi will not stay with them?

Dorna proposes lifting test quota and just let them test as much as they like. How does Honda and Yamaha get back the time they have been saving while Ducati burned through their test before the season even ended. This certainly smacks of favoritism once again.

Look at this thing: http://www.gpone.com/index.php/en/201108184607/LA-FOTO-Scoop-la-Desmosedici-e-2X2.html Testing it briefly at Brno (without anyone knowing!) was Nicky Hayden: "the system solves our front end problems, offering amazing amounts of grip with the front tire, but we still...

What do they hope to accomplish by testing the 800 Monday at Brno. Its a lost season, why piss away valuable testing time on a 6-7th place bike that has 8 races left before its retired. Are they afraid they may be so off pace to Honda and Ymaha it would be embarrassing .

http://www.gpone.com/index.php/en/201107274430/Rossi-e-Stoner-lotta-a-distanza.html GpOne wrote a very interesting article detailing the difference in performance between Rossi and Stoner on the Ducati. It's a fascinating read, if academic.

Ducati's MotoGP pair coy on possible switch to traditional chassis Both Ducati's MotoGP men Valentino Rossi and Nicky Hayden have been very shy about talking up (or down) a switch to a more traditional perimeter frame in order to try and eliminate the problem of not being able to get heat...

With Loris badly injured and about to retire, the rumor seems to have some truth to it. I'd really love to see Troy back on the Desmo at a track he knows and has been testing on. Can anyone confirm this?

Burgess: Casey rode the Ducati in an oversteer situation going into the corner, so the bike would start to slide, which made it start to stand up and he went. He was getting it turned with brake and throttle, but that's an awful risky way to do it." Basically Stoner would spin the rear, then...

hello there motoGP enthusiasts, well gotta say that after the long off season wait and as the weekend went by, building up towards the race I gotta say I was very excited to see just what vale can pull out from his bag of magic, and right here and now I'm giving him all the credit in the...

All, Here's the latest interview from Australian Motorcycle News with Stoner and Burgess. I've typed this out here for the non-Aussies (as most Aussies will be reading this tonight in AMCN anyway ). I think these articles answer alot of pre-season questions (some of which have been...

Some fodder for the long winter is needed! So.. What's wrong with the Desmosedici? While after the Valencia tests Preziosi is busy redesigning the front end of the bike, we may throw our own guesses at where the root of the problem lies. Some have hinted at some basic flaw in the radical...

just a short vid enjoy. Would have been nice to see Nicky in there too. http://www.youtube.c...h?v=9cRr9vUg2LY

Interesting READ. Its amazing how complex GP rules make the factories employ un-institutive solutions.
