Default Valentino big favourite for 2007?

A poll running on the Moto GP web site sees Valentino Rossi being tipped to reclaim his title,(albeit agreed in what is a new category) at a ratio of 3:1 by those voting.

Is Valentino still the main man? Is a wounded former champion just going to be really so much hotter than the rest of the field? Discuss please.........

I think he's going to have stiff competition.

Nicky Hayden will have a different mind set I think as MotoGp champion.

Pedrosa, Capirossi, Melandri all are big threats to. Also from what I've been reading if Suzuki have got their act together and it looks like they might have. Then I dont think you can rule out Hopper either.

I think it really depends on how Yamaha have done with this years bike, if they have chassis problems again I think Rossi is going to struggle. I think that Rossi himself will be hungry to claim his title back.

I'm looking forward to it, should be an interesting season.

If suzuki have there act together then I think Hopper and Vermeulen will come into play...don't forget that Chris did win the WSBK championship from Toseland

as JD says, *if* Suzuki have a competitive bike next year, then I think Vermeulen will be one to watch, far more so than Hopper

Vermin crashes too much, like Stoner if he doesn't stay on the bike more he'll be the new Carlos Checa.
