Klipp från Colin Edwards kommentarer om Sepang-testet från hans egna sida:
"As far as the test itself I was happy with some things and not so about others. I really did let Michelin down to some extent as I didn't do as much work as I normally do for them, but I plan to make it up at the next one. 16.5-17 front? My plan was to learn the 17 just in case the Honda was more suited for it. I did my best time on the 17 and was happy with that, knowing with a 16.5 I will be able to squeeze a little more. Some of you worried about me using the 17 don't be. I'm not discounting it, but I've spent the last 4 years developing the 16.5 tire so they can just hand it to everyone else. My tactic is trickery. Say the 17 is great so no one wants to use the 16.5. Well cat's out of the bag and I don't think it really worked. [icon_rolleyes.gif] hehe! Everyone seems to like the 16.5 quite a bit to my disliking."
Att Colin var den som utvecklade 16,5 tummars framdäck var någit nytt för mig, Ducati har ju använt dom rätt många år i superbike. '99 vet jag att dom använde dom... Bayliss ville åka på dom redan förra året i GP-klassen, men då hade han blivit ensam om detta i hela depån...
