I thought one of the issues Bridgestone had with taking on Rossi this year was that they couldn't make enough tires or something? I could be wrong but how the hell they gonna make enough for the entire grid now?

i like the idea. maybe it will be more competitive like wsbk and im sure bridgestone can hire some more folks to get the job done. michelin should've stepped their game up.

You know what sucks. When there is no competition people get lazy. The amazing amount tech that has been getting into tires over the past few years can be directly traced to the competition at all levels of MC racing. With that over I think we will see one or two more years of new and neat developments in tires then it will slow to a trickle.

With the entire GP field running their tires they can make the case at headquarter s to put money into increased production ability. It might make the racing better but its not a good development for us street riders.
