Guest akey Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Looks like Ducati may well have to cart an extra 10 Kg round this weekend! although they have threatened to pull out of this weekends round as they have no time to conduct safety testing of how and where to carry the 10kg.http://www.crash.net/motorsport/bsb/new ... rawal.html Quote
harrycpr Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 mcn said they have already pulled out.....but ducati should be able to sort the problem out by the next race no prob.....it gone from i think 155kg to 165kg Quote

harrycpr Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 ooo yea carl crutchlow crash at brands........ Quote
Evs7 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 I think it needed to be done, the way Shakey has made up close to 4 seconds in a handful of laps in the last 3 races has been silly. Clearly there is an advantage and it needs balancing out.There was always going to be problems like this with the Ducati this year. the 999 seemed competitive last year, Now everyone seems shocked they have run away with it.BTW though Byrne is doing a good job, I'm sure he'd be leading the championship whatever bike he was on, and will continue to do so even with a weight penalty.

techno Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Oh what a shame poor ducati And i'vejust picked byrne for my team...lol Quote
Philk Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Smoke and mirrors, they'll race. Ducati sell too many bikes on the back of BSB to pull the plug. and...Ducati just love a good moan until they get their own way. I can't understand why the ZX10 isn't doing the biz. Quote
nigelwood1 Posted May 29, 2008 Posted May 29, 2008 There was a comment made by the head of the Ducati Airwaves team in which he said to the rest of the teams,"If you don't like the rules on tuning then build a 1200"How about ducati race a bike that they produce and sell (1200 Not Homologated yet). Instead of whinging that it costs too much to keep the 999 competitive go away and build a 1000 four.I believe BSB may be Ducati free next year....We aren't winning so change the rules to suit us..... Ducati are a bunch of hypocritical spoiled brats that only like it when they have an unfair advantage....Rant over...... Ish...... Quote
techno Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 Rules to fit bike not bike to fit rules thats ducatior is it amoray Quote
