Poll: Is Rossi making the right move?

It's looking very likely that Rossi is on the way back to Yamaha. Is he making the right move?

So El Diablo

You see a 16kmph advantage at the first race of 2007 and extrapolate that over an entire season. Your undies wouldn't be ever so slightly yellow would they?

Oompa Loompa's say the 2007 Ducati was head and shoulders the best machine on the grid 2007, all the whilst conveniently forgetting that 2006 rider of the year Capirossi was a million points behind Stoner. Yep all Stoner had to do was pull the trigger and win after win would follow. Thing is he consistently pulled that trigger harder and earlier than any other rider on the grid. That's how speed is generated Oompa Loompa's - with balls.

Rossi's got the most powerful bike on the grid 2012. What's he doing with it? I'll tell you - whinging. Whinging that it's too much for him - 'back it off Ducati, my wrist is old and limp'. Back to your Yamaha sofa Mr. Rossi. Watch out though you may well sink too deep into that as well.

What about 2008 same battle but with a different outcome despite Ducati having a speed advantage over the M1 Rossi charges from 8th on the grid gets up to Stoner and they have a battle like in 2007 where the Yamaha rider comes out on top unfortunately that was not for the win but for 2nd place.

2008 the Yamaha was the best bike.

They did close the gap bb the 2008 M1 was the best bike on the grid and to prove it I'll repeat it again the battles what Rossi had with Stoner ie that epic Laguna duel and not to say Vale dumping Michelin for Bridgestone rubber not just any type the ones what Casey was using.

The SHIT PIG began its

development from 2008 and never recovered to this date. Three years of feeding shit for de-briefs is a hard thing to shed I guess. The motogp video was great to see a steel - trellis frame without input from shit boy. My how that bike was so, so fucking fast. 30 MPH...GO GO SHIT PIGS!!!!

Stoner Doesn't Fish

He goes hunting with an an Olympic class bow and arrows!   I don't think he values things that come easy.

I'm sure Ducati already know he's leaving and the reasons why. Why would anyone stay if they're doing whgat's asked, and you're not going forward.

There's a great article bait Stoner and his early years in the UK in this month's Bike magazine in UK. I always admired his talent but this tells us why he's media shy and some prettiy rough years while still a kid.

Here we go

blaming someone for your faults. Grow a set......call in Crocodile Dundee and give the shitty boy a whoop ass. No need to become like the Jacksons and blame poor Daddy and Mummy for your success and the path choosen to get there.

Oh my, oh my, the orange brigade panties are gatherd tightly in a bunch, as the weep for Gaycey growing up a hard knock life and thus shaping his personality to become unfriendly. What a croc of shit. Pardon while I weep !!!!! Boo Hoo, Boo hoo!!!

Hmmm... ok... as someone earlier forced the point it's now almost 30kph faster on a long straight than it was in 2007 & still often the fastest bike on the grid. In terms of the engine they have more than kept up with the competition & we've seen them throw everything but the kitchen sink at the chassis, with Rossi's approval. But it just seems the current riders still can't tap into that speed.
