MOTO GP: Relentless Rossi 2008-08-09 03:14:37 If you weren't even a betting man it would have been difficult for anyone to have placed bets on anyone but Casey Stoner and Ducati to win the US MotoGP at Laguna Seca.

It may not be as quick as P220 in the lower RPM but once it hits higher revs, its in a league of its own unmatched by any other Indian bikes.
