Marco's bike will be in the Gresini box all weekend to pay tribute.

well, as sad as it is to think about, Valentino might actually have a shot at the podium this week.

yep... interesting point. Look forward to seeing a custom helmet design as well. It's been a while , but i suspect that with Marco in mind... we will see some visual tributes on Rossi's behalf.
I am also curious to see if the full on twin spare frame shows up for Ducati this weekend...

are you speaking of the new frame?
i was kind of hoping to see it on the bike this weekend... figure that Rossi could get a feel for it before the tests came around... it's going to be very interesting to see how all of the tests go... no Lorenzo i suppose, so Spies will be leading the Yamaha tests...
Chuck , have you heard anything about Suzuki?... do you think that they are going to drop out completely?
