Is de puniet going to be one to watch this season?

Question

have to agree with you proc, stoner was unstopable last season season, if im honest i can see the battle being for 2nd and 3rd place.

now where did i put that voodoo doll!

Answer 1

Nope... Think its gonna be another Rossi,Stoner,Pedrosa battle personally... Stoner rode his a**e off last year and deserved to win i mean come on he was unstoppable, just hope Rossi has his head in gear now his tax bill is sorted and he can concentrate on doing what he does best... Thats winning...

p.s. you can borrow one of my Stoner /Pedrosa/Hayden voo-doo dolls if you like, i have a few spare....

Answer 2

Even though Randy has great pace, he never seems to carry it off in race conditions.

He is on a great bike this year, and most of his team he knows from his old 250 team, so if he is going make it, it will have to be this year.

Too much younger talent fighting for places.

Answer 3

hopefully yes, stoner dominated the 2007 seanson due to electronics, his bike had the most advanced electronics in the pack but now the rest seem to have roughly the same package of traction controll e.t.c

Answer 4

Hey Rossi,

He's definitely worth looking at ;o)  and he sure can put in some fast laps, now if he just spent less time with his ankles in the air than Paris Hilton he might win a few!

Like you, I sadly think everyone may be racing for 2nd place this season - lets hope not.

Answer 5

Well, no one cane have as many sickies at Rossi! Stoner has already proved himself by coming first in the trials in Spain. He won a super duper car BMW something! I am looking forward to this seasons racing which start next month in Daqar. CASEY - CASEY - CASEY He'll get the championship again. He is younger than Rossi and a lot more fit.

Answer 6

de Puniet could be a bit of a dark horse this season. There's a certain similarity between him and stoner, in that they were/are blisteringly fast, but with a tendency to crash a lot.

They both started their premier class campaigns in 2006, and the only person to crash more than Stoner that year was de Puniet. But there wasn't much in it.

When Stoner changed bikes, he just gelled with his new machine, and the rest is history.

Now that he too has changed teams, Randy seems to be going in a similar direction.

I'm sure that if he can keep it rubber side down, he's capable of running at the front.

I still think Stoner will be the man to beat, with Rossi and Pedrosa being most likely to achieve that.

And I agree with Jody C that Vermeulen is capable of great things. He just needs to sort out qualifying and speed early in a race.

Whatever happens, there's a fascinating season ahead.

Answer 7

I think there all going to be to watch. If not fighting for the lead. they are going to be fighting for for points. should be a good spectacle for the fans. I'm hoping (nothing serious) Stoner has fitness problems. all through testing he has done short stints. probably nothing but I gotta hope something will slow him down.

Answer 8

rossi all the way for me as and ive previously said vermuelen is the one to watch out for this season for me
