Well,… Valentino Rossi dengan Jeremy Burgess aka Jerry… ibarat 2 sisi mata koin yang sudah menyatu …!!! Ditinggal mbah Jerry ke Aussie langsung deegh sang Italiano melorooot Qualifying Practice nya… sampe-sampe juara 2 dari belakang seweaktu di Sachsenring… wkwkwkwk …!!! Padahal waktu di Sachsenring ia menggunakan Ducati GP 11.1… sedangkan di Laguna Seca pun… ia akhirnya mengikuti saran mbah Jerry… tetap menggunakan Ducati GP 11.1… dan hasilnya di posisi ke 7… !!! Lho kok bisaaaa …???

Ramuannya itu lhooo… alias settingan mbah Jerry… yang membuat Ducati GP 11.1 bisa monceeer diantara rider Ducati lainnya …!!! Settingan yang diracik mbah Jerry… membuat Rossi bisa lebih confidence dengan soft tyre nya… pada saat Qualifying Practice …!!!

Valentino Rossi (Ducati Team) 7th (1:22.235)
“This morning we made a change to the balance that helped me to find more grip with the soft tyre, as well as a feeling that was generally better. In the afternoon though, with the warmer temperature and the hard tyre, I didn’t have the same performance and feeling. During the session we were able to change the settings again and make a small step, and when we put on the soft, we did a time that was good enough for the third row. Seventh place actually equals my best qualifying spot of the season. That was our goal, to be able to start further forward than we have lately, but for the race we must improve our pace again with the hard tyres because it’s a little too difficult now and the rear is sliding a lot. We’re focused and we’re working very hard so we’ll see tomorrow if we can take another step forward.”

Last,… memang untuk race nanti… pemilihan ban hard tyre tidak bisa dihindari… jika memang cuaca panas …!!! Tim Ducati memang perlu kerja extra keras… soale ban belakang masih sliding terus… !!! Race diperkirakan akan seru… mengingat Rossi biasanya selalu improve antara hasil di race dibandingkan posisinya sewaktu Qualifying Practice …!!! Akankah ia bisa mendulang podium… yaaagh kita nantikan saza… !!! 😀
