Rossi Questioning His Move to Bridgestone

Rossi Questioning His Move to Bridgestone

By Dirck Edge

Three races into the MotoGP series and Michelin has every pole position, as well as the lion's share of the podium spots. Although Valentino Rossi lies third in the championship with more points than any other Bridgestone rider, he is having second thoughts about his switch from Michelin last year.

Rossi was quoted after the Estoril round wondering aloud whether he had made the right choice. All of the Bridgestone riders are pressing for improved performance from their tires, particularly during the latter stages of the race. As Rossi said, time will tell, but Michelin has surely bounced back strong from its lackluster 2007 series.
