its interseting that Ducati throw their teddys out of the cot when they start losing and manipulate the rules to their benefit - just look at WSBK and BSB and th 1200cc rule.
for yrs they dominated the sport on the same litre, then when the competition caught up they changed the rules.
now in moto gp the use this desmo valve system that no other manufacturer uses and it apparently gives them a huge advatage to do with power.....
now flip over to F1 and Ferrari dominate the champoinship for ever and now theyre struggling they're complaining again about a hole at the back of a car that they never invented....
I think the italian engineers are indeed very clever but when things dont go their way complain and stomp their feet until they do.
i wonder if they'd be happy if japan found some new valve technology that started wiping the floor with theirs or if they'd threaten to leave another chanpionship...
rant rant rant - i know but i do get sick of Ducati....
but i have to say Stoner can ride the nuts off that thing without crashing very often!!
but could he do that on that Honda 3 yrs ago?
no he kept crashing because he never had the same level of electronics to help....
having said that electronics dont ride the bike they just assist in some areas
