Give us your forecast then Oily.
DP finished strong last year but I'm sure his run of wins was partly down to the fact JL didnt need to put the title on the line. _________________ Now - SB6R, GSX1400, KTM 990 SuperDuke
Then - H2A Trip, GSX1000R , EXC400, TZ250, R1, TL1000S, 1100 Kat, RG500, RD500, GPZ 900R GPZ1100 UniT, GSX1100, Z650
It was like that when I got here |

...I think it's wide open between the top four.
It's always much, much harder to defend a title....
especially with at least 3 top riders biting at your heels...
DP is on form
VR has something to prove
MM is young and desperate to be up there
and I think they are all going to be tripping over CC too and with the up and coming smiffy getting in the way....
What I do know is poor old AD has a mountain to climb. Really hope he negotiated an excellent contract to waste his talent like that.
...Shaping up to be the best season since Barry and Kenny _________________ SB6 mk1 (project mega light, big bore)

I think Pedrosa has the best chance if he can stay cool and finish every race based on the tail end of last season..., but, any predictions from the sepang test is for fun value only. We know the aliens will be away with it and the winner will be the most consistent podium finisher. I think the new blood will be more interesting to watch and how close they can match them. I think JL is the strongest, he knows what it takes and has the race sense to just do enough. Pedrosa should win it but he may get desperate and start binning instead of winning. Who can bet against Valentino back on a Yam? But he is older and will need the first part of the season to find his touch at the front. If he stays in contention by half way then look out. Smith and Cal, well... I see the numbers 4 and 5 in their destiny. Its going to be the best season in history! _________________ Pomps

...As the Kaiser Chiefs once said.....
I predict......A RIOT.....
Gonna be a good season.
The top four are ALL in with a shout, they are ALL talented enough to take the title so baring "offs" and DNF's how could you predict?
A guess maybe...
DP
VR
JL
MM
but not necessarily in that order........ _________________ SB6 mk1 (project mega light, big bore)

...The only thing I'm fairly sure about this season is those agricultural doochatee things are going to struggle to get a sniff of the podium no matter who's riding them _________________ SB6 mk1 (project mega light, big bore)

Lorenzo
Rossi
Meerkat
Pedrobot
Crutchlow
Brahdl
Bautista
Smith
Crutchlow will do well because he won't have Dovi in front of him but Brahdl will be close to him most of the way, he and Buatist will take points off each other. _________________ Don't read everything you believe |
