well its interesting that you feel the 2004 world championship maybe would then have been won by any yamaha rider !
why is it so many cant actually give rossi credit for his achievements ??..I was watching it all unfold, and while for sure its always a team effort ...its the rider who races and gives all the feedback to the engineers...not the other way round.The successful team has to have everything working in balance, but ultimately its the rider who wins the races.
Lorenzo is a world champion, he too didnt get there by just having good engineers.However I still remember that thrilling last lap overtake by rossi on him, and yes the yamaha had been developed from zero to world beater by the main rider - rossi.It was definitely a help, but remember those riders didnt really share too much info, they were rivals as such.
An impassionate man might wonder just why the development of the ducati to a world beater has not happened...should we blame the engineers and factory then , if indeed rossi is not the person who developed the 04 yamaha...sorry , yer argument just dont hold water.There is still something we dont know, maybe in time this will come out , but for sure just now, ducati will not say.
