Unfortunately, the motor had less to do with the results these days....compared to TIRES and engine management software.
Rossi and the Yamaha I4 still consistently beats every Japanese V4 out there....but he has little chance against the Bridgestones.
And ANYONE who thinks that Rossi is not by FAR the best racer, is delirious. Put Rossi on the Desmocedici on Bridgestones and he'd lap half the field and even Casey would not stand a chance.
