we need JL or AD on the top two steps at every race for the rest of the season.
Lorenzo will win tomorrow
Marquez second and 3rd is up for grabs
don't think Miller will make the podium, but for me I would love to see him take third.
As I have said on this forum previously, Jorge Lorenzo's skill in developing the bike pretty much goes un-noticed by the motorcycle press
my thoughts are that he developed the Yamaha to be THE best bike in the paddock
now that he has been gone from Yamaha for nearly 2 years Rossi has turned it into a POS
it has taken Lorenzo a little bit longer than everyone expected, but now we see the Ducati as THE best bike in the paddock
As far as Rossi goes, Jeremy Burgess shed some light on the subject one night on Fox sports here in Australia
I can't remember verbatim, but in a nutshell he said that Rossi needs to be told what direction to take as far as development goes
and then stick with that direction untill they can see the results, whether they are moving forward or not
Burgess said that those around Rossi are to scared to tell him what to do (I think that is why Rossi sacked Burgess)
the question has to be asked
why would you sack a guy like Jeremy Burgess?
here is an excerpt from Wikipedia:
"Since July 1980, these riders have won 157 GP/MotoGP races (as at 2 November 2009) and a total of fourteen World Championships on motorcycles that "JB" has either prepared himself or whose preparation he has overseen as crew chief. Burgess's machinery have achieved over 280 podium finishes."
