Well,… walaupun motor Ducati Desmosedici GP11 belum laagh sempurna… masih direview oleh Burgess dan para mekanik Ducati…dan setelah mendapatkan kompromi soal setting motor… terlihat Ducati GP11 bisa menandingi baik motor Yamaha ataupun Honda …!!! Rossi tahu bahwa ia bisa mengalahkan Lorenzo… !!! 😀

Memang masih banyak ‘pekerjaan rumah’ yang harus diselesaikan oleh Burgess dan mekanik Ducati… !!! Namun arah kesana sudah tepat… dan memang tidak mudah membuat ataupun merubah Ducati GP11 agar sesuai dengan riding style Rossi …!!!

“We’re very pleased with this podium because we’re on the right path, and especially because I had fun today. I rode the Desmosedici well, I was fast in the technical parts of the track, I felt good from start to finish and I had good lap times. This morning we made a last change to the setting together with Jeremy and the guys from Ducati, and it helped cut another couple of tenths. I knew I could beat Lorenzo, so that was my goal. I also passed Dovi at one point, but I got a little confused and made a move on the penultimate lap instead of the last one. I lost my concentration momentarily, but in short, he got me again. Anyway, it’s fine like this; I’m happy for myself, for my team, for Filippo (Preziosi), and for all the boys at Ducati. This result boosts our morale. We still have to keep working and improving though, because there’s more to be done. I also have to improve and keep adapting my style to the Ducati, because I’m still not riding it as I should, but in the meanwhile, we’ll enjoy today’s nice race and podium.”

Last,…pada tanggal 17 Mei ini… Rossi direncanakan akan riding Ducati 1198 di Silverstoner Inggris ….!!! Yaaagh dalam rangka ikut meramaikan pembukaan paddock wing yang baru ….!!! 😀
