He may not be a rider but his opinion carries as much weight as Rossi's, arguably more. When Rossi retires Burgess will still be around. Just as when Mick Doohan retired.

It's not baiting calling out a distinct contrast whenever the discussion of rossi v. whoever is world champion comes out is it?

You still haven't addressed the stats I've put up. Forget opinion, I don't expect to change yours but address the stats because they are as clear as they can be.
burgess will still be around, rightfully so. but Micky D won 5 and so has Rossi and it seems you think now burgess is 100% responsible, correct?

I am not 100% sure von the ins and outs of burgess's responsibilities so i can't comment on that, sorry.

I see the makers of the bikes and the riders as important and yes the team manager is important but they don't make, fix or ride the bikes so i find it hard to take what they say to serious as far as that.

like i say. rossi and burgess may have different angles onthe tire rule, just a thought.
