for Valentino and for Honda fans the news below are not so good.
for Ducati and Stoner fans, they are really a fantastic news, but isn't indeed a news, right?
Maybe it's only a simple test awards BUT I think that even this year the beating biker will be surely Casey, all the other will have to sweat a lot (Rossi inclusive)
Good motorcycling championship to everybody
<< Reigning MotoGP World Champion Casey Stoner opened the first competitive activity of 2008 with a comprehensive victory in the BMW M Award qualifying shootout, which took place just after 2pm at an uncharacteristically wet Circuito de Jerez.
Stoner needed just five laps onboard his Ducati Desmosedici GP8 to ensure that the BMW Z4 M Roadster would be heading to Australia, clocking an early lap of 1'49.263 that was unrivalled by any of his fellow MotoGP riders. Whilst the winner of the 40 minute timed session is rarely the man lifting the World Championship trophy at the end of the season, the early dominance was a clear stamp of authority by the 22 year-old and will cause his rivals a few sleepless nights ahead of the first race in Qatar on March 9th.
The current title holder's performance put to bed any doubts as to whether either himself or tyre manufacturers Bridgestone would be competitive at the Spanish circuit after a slow day for both parties yesterday. In a mixture of qualifying and race tyres on the opening day of the MotoGP Official Test, Michelin had occupied every place in the top five, and Stoner was comparatively off the pace. His scorching lap today also renders questions as to his ability at Jerez –where he injured his shoulder in the final test of 2007- all but obsolete...........................>>
