Gotta say , looks like its going to be a boring year. I'm thinking if anyone can catch Stoner it could be Spies.
Of course maybe Stoner will have a year filled with wardrobe malfunctions......

He is older... that injury a couple of years ago changed him... and i think that the accident with Simo was the final straw.

Go and watch (or re-watch) the 2010 Motegi MotoGP and you'll have your answer

i sorta disagree . aside from being a stoner fan , you have racing amongst the CRT teams , the potential for CRT bikes consistently getting into the top 10 and maybe a top 5 on occasion , and the lapping opportunities .... should make for some exciting racing .

also it is very much a development year for all so its anyone's guess how it will really play out between honda and yamaha and the riders

I don't give a fuck who wins, as long as it's not that smarmy little twat Howdy Doody.

not sure how the race reflects my opinion of what i expect from 2012?
i remember Stoner taking the victory.. and Jorge and Rossi having it out?
do i remember correctly?

i get the similarities to having Stoner win with ease... but i do not think for a minute that we will see Rossi sticking it to Jorge at all this year. I hope i am wrong, but i just get the feeling that Ducati is truly lost in MotoGP...

and the only way Rossi will see the top of the box again is if Yamaha give him a bike some how in the future...

Ducati should enter as a CRT team.

Fire the entire team, have them set up their own entity, then enter as a CRT team with an FTR chassis (which they already have), and a Ducati motor (which they already have). Then they can take advantage of the extra fuel and claim top CRT honors while they are at it hahaha...
