Exactly.

These things are cyclical.

Which is what Burgess is intimating. rossi will find himself out of sorts once again when Michelin are able to provide a quality tire. I agree with Stoner, one bad season doesn't mean dump the supplier and as Burgess has made quite clear in another interview valentino made plenty of errors which were not tire related. In other words, valentino lost the title fair and square and the excuses need to stop. His comments imply that Stoner didn't beat him based on talent but on tires and engine configuration. Given the results of the other ducati riders I think that is a poor assessment.

Kind of sad to see him cracking like this. The end is nigh. It wa a good run val, go rallying I hear they don't run Michelins there.

What's really sad is Dorna threatening Bridgestone if they don't supply rossi.
