Hopkins from Suzuki to Kawasaki

[eragon]

Hello guys!

The rumors was already known for time on the MGP world,
but what do you think about this choice of Hopkins?

Because this year Suzuki has done really a big jump ahead, also the Ninja not to bad but ..........besides the green Ninja seem also that be interested on Capirex; therefore great market this year for Kawa!!!

cheers.

I think that we could never know what will happen next year... but looking at this year's results, I think Kawasaki is really doing a good job and more and more riders seem to be interested in it. In Laguna Seca, also Roger Lee Hayden made a good job with this bike he didn't really know.
I think Hopkins made a good choice, and maybe, who knows, even if Suzuki is alright maybe he does prefer the way of riding of the Kawasaki, many riders do prefer bikes from others...or maybe there are other reasons... who knows...
I hope everything's going to be great for Hopkins, because he deserves it, he's a great rider, so determined and... crazy!!!

About Capirossi, I think nobody knows what's going to happen... Ducati could give him a third Ducati so maybe he will stay where he is ... we'll see.. Personnally I think Capirossi should stay in Ducati as he REALLY know this bike and he's doing a great job on it when everything's how he wants it. I think DUCATI is HIS bike,...
let's see what's gonna happen in the next weeks...

Maccio will have a hard season, beside Casey....and under all cameras that stay around Ducati....he is risking a lot: with the best bike you HAVE to be faster...otherwise you are finished...

...yes Livia, can be,

but it will be to see if theirs will be still the strongest motorbike.
On the paper Melandri has taken the best decision but the race is another thing.

In my opinion Yamaha and above all Honda they cannot afford to be still wrong and ......seen the potentialities, according to me they won't be wrong.

Besides, I have trust in the next steps of Kawa and Suzuki (with the return of Schwantz as manager) even if obviously Ducati cannot be inferior.

We will see

To be honest, this is a great season, 'cause finally there is more than 1 champion riding and more than 1 constructor running fast bikes. That should be also a great push for next season, all constructors will be forced to improve the bikes and work hard to make a good 2008 season. The first year with a slow 800cc engine is not too bad, the second is a failure...and the third is the end...
So you're right, i guess we will see fast bikes next year...hopefully!

Personnally I've always been quite a "fan" of Marco Melandri, knowing him from the European Championship.. and I'm sorry to say I'm not quite sure his decision was the best one....
