MotoGP 2008

[Corse]

Who is gonna be the next champion ?

 

Sorry that the max votes are only 10.

If not I would have added in John Hopkins and Toni Elias.

These 10 names seems to be doing well in their practice rides. If i'm not wrong.

Marco Melandri 33

I really hope that Casey Stoner will take the 1st place again.

But Lorenzo, Dovizioso seems to be doing pretty well too.

I hope Rossi's Choice for Bridgestone will do him good. Love to watch him overtake.

[etky85]

is the qatar race going to be at night?

[DC84]

eh i think tml. but tonight got motogp offical test at 8.30pm channel 24

Casey Stoner.

 

He may be riding one of the most powerful biker, but it's the only screamer in the whole pack of big bangs. To be on a screamer and not fall, credit is due to the fabulous electronics on the Ducati that works using GPS telemetry for a live "corner by corner" adjustment ability. However, Stoner is not the only one who has the bike. Capirex, Marco and Pramac boys all have the same toy.

 

Stoner worked backwards when he came to MotoGP on the LCR and provided us much entertainment with his crashes. However, no one knew he had to setup his bike to suit what Michelins think what would work for him, but yet he would still try to dice with the front pack, and qualify pretty well.

 

Either would he be regard as a talented rider, or just a kid who believes everything his engineers told him and just totally trust the bike, it's up to individual to believe

 

I kindda hope Sylvain Guitolini would be like him, but only the whole season would tell.

hello guys. was wondering if starhub sports group do telecast motogp. can someone tell me about the date, time and which channel ?

but still hoping to see tat italian fellow tat made me go from a honda man to a yammie guy to perform his magic. it has been missed so so so much...

 

46 GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tortise]

I want to see Jorge Lorenzo vs. Danny Pedrosa vs. Stoneman like they did in 250's.

 

But the Stoneman has Duc power so he is obviously the favourites, altho the Honda engine was catching up as of the last few races of last year so by now might be very close already.

[Guest deganduss]

Pedrosa the man 2 win

[Corse]

Woo Hoo.. I'm glad Casey Stoner took 1st place.

And my other 2 guesses were quite true.

Lorenzo and Dovizioso are do pretty well.

Great job for Dani and Rossi too.

 

Stoner 42'36.357

Lorenzo 42'41.910

Pedrosa 42'47.187

Dovizioso 42'49.875

Rossi 42'49.892

Toseland 42'50.627

Edwards 42'51.737

Capirossi 43'09.092

DePuniet 43'09.590

Hayden 43'14.941

[ambasnakeman]

guys, remember....for safety reasons, they did testing at qatar 1 week before race(never happens). as usual, michelin had the upper hand, with the exception of rossi and pedrosa....

 

jerez, also both manufacturers have prior info.

 

i think tyre war will start with rd3

[Terrible One]

Pedrosa the man 2 win

 

Hai.. I've been saying that for the past 2 yrs.. But den............

[cyraxhexx]

[PuteraBrothers]

[sugizo98]

wonder why ducati can have the ability to produce more speed. from all the ducati riders. they are clocking 320+km/h top speed. the rest are below. its unfair.

[Guest deganduss]

Oldman oredy lah!

Married & retired I think but 1 of the best during his time

Yup, it's unfair that the Ducs have such top speed, only 1 made it podium, the other 3 out of top 10.

 

The slowest Tech 3 Yammies are 6th and 7th.

Is he not test rider or something still? Bridgestone or Suzuki. Actually someone should try hard to bring Noriyuki Haga into MotoGP again.
