I can understand moving to a smaller company thinking changes would come faster, too bad it never happened. I don't wish ducati bad luck, but I'm interested to see what kinda magic he may be able to find with Yamaha.

I am not a huge mental Rossi fan but I think the man has been through hell, all the crashes, practically killing a best friend on the track last year, plus riding a bike that's not at the top of its game. For sure hes getting to the end of his career but I think he still has some good left.

His been riding a bike that won 10 races the year before he got on it,

I'm sure his team will tune in to the M1 very quickly, it's just a matter of how quickly Rossi can find the belief in his ability................

That's the biggest thing he has been missing for a long time now, his confidence in himself.
Look at Spies, we all had great hopes for him but I don't think he got the backing from Yamaha the way Jorge does, plus all the bad luck with crashes, broken parts, bad tires etc. (Well maybe all of us didn't have hope for him, if we have Rossi haters I am sure there are Ben haters too, lol)
We all throw stones at these guys but no one really ever knows the whole story or whats up in their heads. I am sure the pressure is beyond enormous.

I have said it before and I will say it again. I am neither a Rossi supporter or detractor, but it will be nice to have hi back on the Yamaha. Kudos to Stoner for doing what he did on the Ducati, but I don't think the Rossi/Ducati partnership was ever meant to work.

As for Spies, I was really hoping he could give the top guys a run for their money this year. However, I have gotten really tired of his "I'll announce what I'm doing when I do it" PR campaign in every article I read about him.

One of the rumours I heard in relation to Spies is that he was going to BMW in the WSBK, and later was going to head a BMW campaign into MotoGP? Dunno, don't really care.

I read the same thing about Spies and feel the same way. Just don't care.
