Thats Barros's carreer ending with a phhhht! then. Even a good rider like him will struggle with team useless.

will it be that clear cut ? ..... new bikes,new tyres,talented rider. Not saying he's gonna set the world on fire, just that there are a lot of differences for the exisiting d'antin team

ridiculous idea IMO, he had the pick of the paddock in WSB and some race wins. Will go to MotoGP and be a nobody.

can't figure that out for the life of me.

I guess the choice is to be competetive in what is generally percieved to be a lower class, or take on a new challenge in the premier class

hrmmm, still on a 'tier 2' tyre then

Bridgestone need to lift their game I feel, they aren't consistent enough to give Loris a a shot at the title, and Casey if he can find some consistency himself, and less gravel!
