| Re: Rossi has problems, Edwards cruising Sete won the BMW with Rossi and Hayden close behind. Colin is nowhere to be found on the day it mattered for this test.

Jeezus don't read too much into it  |

| Re: Rossi has problems, Edwards cruising Funny **** this testing. If YOUR rider is doing well? He's a FREAK, and kickin arse. If he's not? It's TESTING for fuk's sake. lol
I really don't think Roosi, CEII, or even Sete for that matter, could give a flying fuk about the car. They want the title at the end of the season. Last year CEII was on top of the sheets all year and it meant jack ****. I think this year the bike is new, (not same bike as last year) and they are busy getting it right for round 1, not worrying about cars and winning one lap wonder shoot outs. Testing will be forgotten once round one is over. CE says it's a top 5 bike now, and it needs work to be a winning bike, and they'll do that for the next test. If that's so, look out, Rossi and CE are gonna be kickin arse. |

| Re: Rossi has problems, Edwards cruising I'm a CE fan but.........you can't tell me that Rossi or CE didn't want to win that car (not necessarily the car, but have the fastest time...and thus the car)....that's BS. If they could have, they would have, that's the bottom line.

Rossi is a psychological killer, him winning the car again on a "not so fast" bike would have demoralized everyone in the honda camp. you KNOW he wanted to win it! |

BTW Hopkins looks like a FREAK!
