Am I the only one who thinks it’s funny that Ducati chose Polaris snowmobiles?

Yes Jimbo, it is. They are riding around on super electronically controlled machines. Very little action. Unfortunately, I literally fall asleep in my chair if I try to watch a whole race.

I haven’t paid that close attention for several years. Is it really that bad?

Bring…. It…. ON!!!!!!!! GOD, I can’t WAIT for this season to start!!!!! Spies will certainly change it from the “Fantastic Four” to the “Fabulous Five”!!!!!!! I have little doubt the Spies will win at least One race this year, and maybe more. Rossi will be as big a contender as ever, especially after the first few races, once he gets the Duc dialed in for himself.

This is gonna be an AMAZING year for MotoGP.

Can’t wait for Qatar???

Nice guys, cool bikes and all but tell me, when was the last time you could throw a blanket over even three guys near the finish of a MotoGP race?

Boring.

weird and pointless video indeed.. i mean, what’s with the drama about a broken snowmobile and a rescue team that what? calls in a chopper with 2 motogp bikes, culminating in a press coverage in the alps? reminds me of a random dream i had.

Never beed a real “Fan” of Nicky. However, I have been impressed with the work he has put into sorting out the Ducati. It is clear to anyone whom has watched MotoGP over the past few seasons, the Ducati is a challanging bike to ride. It eventually even put Stoner outside of his comfort level. Once Rossi adds his input, I believe Nicky will get on the podium this coming season.

Really hope Spies gives Loenzo a run for his money.

Speaking of which. Was it Rossi’s salary that caused Ducati to pull sponsorship from all SBK series?? To many, myself included, SBK is a better series than MotoGP. Rather dissapointing to see Ducati fall so far after Bayless’ departure.

Rossi already stated that there will be no wall between the two riders in the pit box.

Him and Nicky are a perfect grouping for the sport. They were teammates back when I first got interested in MotoGP… I think because of the Repsol bikes in the dealer showrooms, and secondly after I found out who the bike was ridden by in the championship I was hooked by the domination of one dude on that bike. The fact that there were Americans competing against him is what made me tune in to see how we stacked up…
