  1. I think he's doing the right thing. Suzuki has improved the most out of all the teams this year and I think he needs a new motivation. I hope he does really well next year.


  2. You must write in this way CAPIROSSI!!!!

  3. Hey Wiggysan,

    Are you reading my mind again? I was gonna post this question today!

    I too am pleased for him and think he has shown us his quality time and again. I'm sure he'll be getting on the podium with it next year.

    What did make me giggle was reading this quote on another bike site:

    "My target was to be in a factory team so I went with Suzuki. In the last few races I've followed the Suzuki a lot to try and understand it!"

    I bet his boss was a bit p1ssed off to read that (good) as I'm sure he would rather have him in front of the Suzuki! And the rest!

    Are you watching the live timings for free practice one at the moment?

  4. I dont think it will necessarily do him any favours. You cant say he isnt on a competitive bike at the moment with Stoners results in mind. I acknowledge Loris has done well in the past but I dont think he ever lived up to his expectations with Ducati and I think they should have hung on to Bayliss in his place, but kept Loris for PR reasons as he is Italian. I would be really shocked if Honda havent pulled there fingers out to do better next year as well. Suzuki seems good - way better than its previous GP bike but still dont think it will be a regular winner in the near future.

    Never know though - suzuki may work better with his small stature.

  5. I think it's the best choice he could make! Although Ducati is a strong team it wasn't for him. I don't hink they were treating him the way they had to. Suzuki is offering him a new start. He spent too much time with the Ducati so let's hope he won't find any problems with the new bike and the new team! :)

  6. It is a good move because obviously he was not happy with the team anymore.  Suzuki is heading in the right direction and a rider of his caliber will only assist them more.  I am much happier seeing him on that bike than ending his career in the back of the pack or in WSBK.

  7. capirossi in suzuki is a great move, because suzuki is a good bike with a god potential of growth and a man with Loris' experience will develop the bike very well, as well as he did with Ducati... let's hope suzuki will be more thankful than the Italian team, because Loris didn't deserve the treatment he had from ducati... does it seem you right that they just offer a third ride, with half pay, to the man who made this bike great? I don't think so, but life goes on and so I say GO LORIS!!!!!!!!!!

    p.s.: sorry if I made some mistakes but I'm Italian and my English is not so good, but I forgot your capparossi so you can forgive my mistakes :) bye
