The Irony!

All that effort HRC put into campaigning for an 800cc premier class, and it turns out Ducati know a little bit more about wringing power out of a four stroke V4 than they do ;D

How fast was Stoner's bike in a straight line :o Rossi couldn't even keep up when he was slipstreaming it 8)
Education: Elitist activity. Cost ineffective. Unpopular with Grey Suits. Now largely replaced by Training."

Stoner's top speed in the race was a 314.1 kph (195.15 mph) and in comparison Rossi was 302.4 kph (187.88 mph) and that was probably while slipstreaming.  :)

Also, Stoner clocked the slowest time of the four Ducati's!
