walshie 2,804 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 I don't think Rossi can win the title, but I'm going to enjoy watching him try. At least his bike is more competitive this year and he seems more fired up than the last couple of years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bracken boy 584 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 spot on walshie, didnt u say hed win it last year? at 36 i just tip my hat off to him... the dukes with there special softy tyre will qualify well all year so rossi will struggle to get front row much which creates a problem with tyres and traffic, one rider who cuts through the field is marquez...

Taggy123 59 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 I bet they are shell shocked at honda, bet they werent expecting to be 5th and 6th. Hope it will be a close season rather than a one horse race like last year. I prefer wsbk's anyway cus ive got a kawasaki lol! Taggy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bracken boy 584 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 taggy yes they will be scratching their heads but they not be worried one bit, in my view the honda is still the best bike in moto gp with two very fast riders who will win races, did u notice what bike was the fastest in qatar?? well i did, the honda, i expect marquez to be the easy winner in texas next week, it will also be interesting to see if ducati can be fast again. pedrosa is injured so that explains why he was poor and marquez was last in first corner so take that away and u get a different story, now saying all that i want a yamaha victory but that be tough...

Taggy123 59 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 I agree bracken i think texas suits the honda and marques. Dont think rossi has done too well there in the past. Would be great if there was 3 manufacturers in it right down to the wire. It was a shame what happened to lorenzo with the lining of his helmet blocking his vision or it could have been a yamaha 1 2.

tong po 129 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 tong po, id like to think u could be right but for this to happen hes got to out qualify marquez and win more races than marquez but than will be hard to do...so tell me why he can win title then???When Rossi first came on the 125 grid he said give me a year and I'll win the title the next year,he then said the same with 250 and 500 and he was true to his word although it didn't happen with Ducati he's had a year back on the Yamaha so we'll see. Marques is an amazing rider he can be to hot headed . As for qualifying Rossi never really qualifies we'll but improves on race day.I've probably just wrote a load of crap but it's just my opinion.

tong po 129 Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Who would you put your money on if it was stoner v marques both on Honda ? What a battle that would be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bracken boy 584 Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) tong po this is rossis 3rd year back with yamaha, 2013=1race win@ assen 2014=2race wins @ san marino and philip island so if he doubles up again in 2015 then that not be enough to win title, he will.need a minimum of 6 race wins with lorenzo, pedrosa, dovi, taking wins to bunch the title up a bit, stoner v marquez would have been great to watch with stoners early race pace marquez would need to stay within a sec and half on first 8 laps then in.my view hed rattle stoner just like rossi did in laguna 2008, it would have been a great watch thats for sure.

tong po 129 Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Yes mate your right I forgot he rejoined Yamaha in 2013,that's my theory out the window then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bracken boy 584 Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 as good as rossi is and hes up there with the very best if not the best ever in my view at 36 yrs old its a hard job to beat them young fast riders of today and with the soft tyre rule not in his favour hes gunna have to ride to the limit every race... but hey enjoy the ride this season because its going to be great..
