He bike allows him to enter corners as he likes; it also responds to changes in setup in a predictable fashion;of course they are slower than the main competition; Rossi said the throttle resopone is way too aggressive (can be tamed with software /electronics) and rear grip is too low ( can be improved with chassis tuning and electronics). They have a lot of work to do but you have to admit Ducati did a good job considering how little time they had. And if he can get to within 0.5 to 0.7 of qualifying , he can win races. He's done it before. Dear Z2: Rossi is happy.

but “hotrodded” only to the tune of 20k which brings us full circle back to being essentially superstock.
