nick31 wrote Another F1-like nail in the coffin of MotoGP as high-tech gimmickery outweighs rider talent. Cue engines blowing up and...oh wait we have that already. Wasnt the Aprilia pneumatic and was a crock of shit (comparatively).As far as I'm aware the Suzuki's are using Pneumatic vales and have been all season. They seem to be going alright. Traction control is what is killing motorsport in general as a spectical... Not just Moto GP, But F1 and BSB too. You don't see bike bucking and weaving around as riders stuggle to control them on the brakes and under acceleration... It must be a great feeling to know that as soon as you see the exit to a corner, you can pin the throttle wide open and let the computer do the rest!!!!nick31 wroteAnyway, heres a point for pointless musing: wouldnt it have been fun if Rossi had switched to Ducati for 08.....oh well, we can dream...itll be more fun than watching the races.I think Rossi said that he would stay with Yamaha as long as he's riding bikes... Having said that he also said he wouldn't join any team with a tobacco sponsor... Like Gauloisse and Camel So why not Marlboro Ducati?
