I dont expect the doctor to be on form this year but as of next year with the change in cc Rossi will be in his prime and riding the best bike out there for sure

In pre season they've been working on Fork configuation and an anti wheelie system to allow more punch out of the corners.
After the end of season test I believe Rossi and JB spoke to Filippo Preziosi about the changes they want on the bike before the first official test.
Don't count out Rossi just yet, look what happened in his first season at Yamaha.
IMO Casey Stoner is the man to beat next year. He was super fast the first time out on the Honda.

Unfortunately i don't think a return to 1000cc engines will be a return to the good old days.
Due to the stupid and unneccesary fuel restriction, i cant see engines actually being the full size, i reckon 900cc motors will appear for 2012, and electronic control will be the overriding factor in getting your bike to the finish.

Has to be Stoner on the Honda this season. Was at silverstone last year and donnington the year before (when it went a bit pear shaped for him) and really can't understand why most brits have an issue with him.

Has to be Stoner on the Honda this season

Hopefully a four way battle between the 'aliens'- with Rossi, Lorenzo and Dani Pedrosa.
Im hoping Pedrosa wont bin it and wreck his season like he normally does.
And i also think Ben Spies will become the 5th 'alien'.

Alien is the term that the Eurosport guys gave to the top riders who are above mere mortals!

Oh bugger, i forgot my fake Italian accent- never mind!
