Kickass vid....Yamadudes gotta be stoked right now...

Edit:
Is it just me or does the Yam look like it has more inertia in transition than the Honda...? (reference the video at around 43 seconds)

Re: The doctor is in...
After hearing all of the rhetoric about Rossi and his demands NOT to ride for a tobacco sponsor when negotiating with Ducati et al, what's up with Gauloises (the big French tobacco conglomerate)?

Did I miss something and now Val is the Marlboro Man?

Re: The doctor is in...
that bike noise is hype. Sex on wheels. Maybe it'll be tough, maybe it won't, but man, just to see any bike racing footage has given me a stiffy.

Not use to seeing him fly the Yamaha emblem on his arm yet tho.

I think that was his first lap/laps on the bike. But ya, it looked a bit sketchy.
The Moto GP site was selling the vid for a buck.
