once you consider that dorna, repsol, and pedro are all spanish...

are you saying it was a conspiracy to get Pedro a championship by getting the 800CC spec in place and that by proxy he could rule the class via minibike?

Ok, so now that we know where all factory guys (suke doesn't count) and Spies are going, ;D what happens with Tech 3, Team Marco and the team of 50cc scooters that Suzuki is running?

Occasionally AFM #702  My stuff:  The M1000SS, a mashed r6, Vino 125, the Blonde, some rugrats, yuppie cage, child molester van, bourbon.

sounds like there is a reasonable chance (strange as it is) that capirossi will take ben's seat at tech 3

and i wouldn't be surprised if team marco stays as is.

Gawd, when was the last time Capi had a decent bike?  2006?  It's easy to forget that he's still fast as shit.  

Crutchlow/Capi would be a wierd team if Edwards retires.  Though personally, I think Crutchlow needs another year in WSBK and should come to GP when the bikes switch to 1000cc and when everyone is at a disadvantage.

You just want your Ben on the factory bike.

We'll see.
Financially and egotistically it's a no brainer...

I'm not so certain it will work out for him competitively.

He is, however, Rossi.

Sometimes I think he could make the Suzuki fast. :P

he already did that with the M1.  give him a budget, JB and his mechanics, he'll do it.

btw, maybe the 2010 engine config on the desmo is just smoke to get casey to move.  maybe Vittorio "suddenly" goes back to the screamer next year...   [evil]

The question, in my mind, is will Preziosi leave his ego at home and allow the boys to work their magic?

Assuming that this will actually happen. ;D
