Optimistic after the test in Malaysia. (* VIP = Very Importand Post)

Inaugurating a new category of major new, with the prefix VIP!
The Jeremy Burgess, chief engineer of the famous Valentino Rossi, a man from whom the Ducati has a lot of expectations - like himself Vale - to transform the GP11 in a friendly driver of a motorcycle, seems happy with the test Sepang. The Alex Briggs (third photo) from the team of engineers wrote on twitter:
"We did a ton of work, but the atmosphere was like in 2004. Really exciting. "Despite the fact that Jeremy is usually relaxed,« cool », we would say, seemed to share this exciting atmosphere.
"Every morning woke up Valentino and the shoulder was OK, so this is positive. We made some good progress with the bike. We have two bikes that we believe are good and probably something between the two settings is the bike that will be used in racing. We are ready to make a bike that fits the style of Valentino. In Valencia we tried the other drivers of motorcycles, Ducati (note to what we mean ...) and it was very different than we used to Yamaha. But after two months immediately found something more normal road for us and we were able to move forward very quickly from the first morning. Since then we have done little with the suspension. "
About whether to make drastic changes in GP11 said:
"Basically we need a more comprehensive picture of the results we make the Ducati. Some motorcycles are very sensitive to a change and some less. From the moment you understand what the changes compared to the desired result, it is much easier to work. "
The Jeremy referred to the unique "frameless" (fourth photo), the Ducati and whether this difficult situation:
"This is not exactly true. You can say that has two frames, so you are more fortunate. But this is not an issue that concerns me at present in this phase. Basically, wheels, tires, suspension and brakes, which are below the box is the same as those who worked for years. The only thing different is the engine and that is part of the framework and in this there are no issues of concern. For example, it never tried the new 42 mm forks. There was no need. We have a very good understanding of 48ariou for many years and at this point there is no issue with the suspension. Clearly we know that there can be no issue with parties who know and understand, because there has never been subject to them in the past. If there are questions, not from these parts. "
Speaking on the shoulder of the driver of the Burgess said:
"We'll come back here in three weeks with Valentino stronger and confident that we can make more improvements in the next test. Basically this test was important for Valentino, to understand the performance of his shoulder. "
In 2004, in Welkom, the Burgess had predicted the victory on the eve of the race. He was the only one who did it. I do now?
"I have this dream, but from what doctors say, recovery is good, but probably not 100%. But we have seen Valentino to win there last year being 80%, so nothing less than the abilities of Valentino from many sides
