Full marks to Valentino for giving it a shot,only for once again the dinosaur like IL4 motor to let him down. All he had to do was crawl home from the position he was in and he was runner up. A great end result given what he has had to deal with this season. Take this as read, unless he has a V4 next season he will gain a hat trick of non title years.
However is final position in the championship is his worse since his launch on the world stage back in 1996. No one can deny that HRC and Michelin got their acts together during the second half of the season and Dani's 4 poles on the trot bode well for next season. I think it fair to say that just maybe Casey was not too bothered to not win today but I suggest only a fool would rate him and the Ducati package above the dimunitive Spaniard if Honda continue to get it right. Pedrosa has the beating of Casey any day of the week when all things are equal. That is not taking anything away from the young Aussie who is one of the top 5 talents out there for sure and the GP7 would not have accumulated all of those wins on it's own after all! 2008? Expect a royal battle between the 2 Ducati's and Pedrosa's Honda with Jorge Lorenzo featuring as the season progresses. Do not be surprised to see Toni Elias be a much stronger force than he has ever been once he gets on board his D'Antin Pramac Ducati. Hopkins could well become a regular podium finsher on the kawasaki. |

I'd like to see an additional character (to Rossi) on the MotoGP tour next year. Pedrosa and Stoner are fine riders but they have no personality and every sport needs people who shine not just on the track.

Looks like you wil be one of Lorenzo's new fans then.Plenty clowning...when he wins from the Spaniard. Plowsie..Max had the block put on him by Honda and so he will race in WSBK as a team mate of Ruben Xaus running 1098 Ducati's. Max for Champ? Don't bet against it. |
