How much better is is than F1? ...no comparison.

How much does F1 need Rossi? Will he be any good? LDM has rubber stamped the move, 2007 could be interesting. Michael out. Valentino in.

I agree wholeheartedly. MotoGP spanks F1.

However, Rossi makes a major difference and whilst it would be extremely good for F1 it would be a huge loss the the bike racing world.

Would still like to see what he is capable of in F1 though...

I disagree, if Rossi left MotoGP you would still get the fantastic racing you have seen today. There are a number of top riders battling it out infront of and behind Rossi and would make for a closer season than we have seen over recent years.

The interesting thing is that Rossi's dominance does not seem to detract from the spectacle the way Schumacher's did. It goes to show that MotoGP seem to have the balance right where F1 lost the plot over ten years ago.

Even the 125's and 250's are spectacular.Some of them going from 7th or 8th straight to 1st place then back to 5th or 6th all in the space of a couple of corners whilst everyone else is swapping and chopping around them.Bloody brilliant/mad/insane etc.I certainly can't think of anything else that comes close for entertainment in the motorsport world.Had some good " last few lap " clashes aswell this year ..theres nothing like taking it to the wire.Its good to see that Rossi doesn't get it ALL his own way.Roll on next year.I thought I read somewhere that Rossi never had any plans to leave Moto GP for F1.

It shows what a curse "downforce" is to car racing.

i dont think he will go in 2007, he will want to win a championship on the new 800cc bikes before then

Good racing today. I am also looking forward to this Mansell, Prost etc racing thing with same spec cars. It`s on the BBC next week and it looks like we have dear old Murray Walker to look forward to as well!

I'm looking forward to it, but I reckon Prost is going to dominate. He's still races so much, and that's a big advantage.

The Moto GP kicks arsch, shows F1 up for what it is, a parade of money driving round and round.

Prost is now not racing in the GP masters.
