Regarding Rossi and Ducati, there are a lot of riders who have gone to Ducati and struggled. Even Stoner wasnt so strong when they went to control tyres.
Stoners biggest problem has been not doing enough race simulations on the new bike to discover the arm pump issue.
Anyway, the biggest plus for us lot is Yamaha doing so well. Lorenzo, even without Furusawa, having helped Yamaha make the new bike a winner could win it this year. If he can win at a track he hasn't won at in the main class before its looking good for the rest of the year. Qatar showed the true grit never give up attitude. Could be a great season.
Forgot to put this in my previous post.

"For the last seven years Furusawa has always been the number one at Yamaha. Without him, I don't know what will happen. I was quite worried about this."
And to think a couple of years ago some Rossi fans slated Lorenzo for only doing well on the bike 'Rossi developed'.
