MotoGP Sepang Test
The 3 day test sessions at Sepang ended today and seams all teams are happy with the numbers achieved on their new 1000cc machines, Stoner managed to do the fastest lap 1:59.607 . Rossi also made great progress with the new GP12 and still fine-tuning it.
I can’t wait for the season to start and hear these new 1000cc machines live at the opening round in Qatar.

It’s the Tires !
As we all know, Carlos Checa has been experimenting with the Ducati GP12 and already has some comments.
Checa claims that the problem with the bike isn’t the chassis as Ducati already experimented with four difference chassises and the results were almost the same ! The problem according to Checa is with tires, Checa added “ When you do not know where the limit of the tire is very hard to develop a motorcycle”
I guess we’ll just have to wait and see the results using different tires.
Thats racing
