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.

it is funny how quickly you dismiss the 5 time champion and 2 time runner up as nothing while the great stoner comes in LOL the same was said last year when hicky stepped up and now he is nowhere while rossi on a slower, undertired, mistake riddled season still got second. I will venture you will see stoner behind rossi next year like hicky this year.
