Stoners Duc is the machine of choice, and it is the bike as well as the rider. Don't kid yourself, when you see Casey walk away from Rossi race after race you can't say it's rider only.

it is the rider and the bike, and the tires, and the suspension setup, etc. so much goes into practicing and testing. everything has to work flawlessly together in moto gp.

What does that have to do with The Duc being faster than every other bike in the straights?

LOL If anyone watched the GB race a week or so ago, you would know that rider and machine have to work together. The tires made the biggest difference in that race. By the end of the race, you saw the Honda riders lapping way faster than the other guys on different brands of tires.

Can't wait until tomorrow's race. Anyone know if it will be broadcast in HiDef or not?
