True, but now we get to see if Stoners bike is really the handful he has said it is this year. I think Rossi might be able to do great there but keep in mind Stoner hadnt won a single race this year, and were not talking a second tier rider here. Nicky either for that matter but lets face it, he hasnt been a contender since his championship and to be honest, I didn't think he dominated then at all either. Of couse your own team mate (PUDrosa)taking you out towards the end of a championship doesnt help...but I digress..
