    OK, sorry to be bringing up the whole Rossi aero package shit again,
    but does it look like he has a new front fairing on the Yamaha since
    the summer break? just watching the highlight clips of BRNO on
    motogp.com it looks to be wider and a little different shape. I
    definitely think that BRNO is a track where the aero package could
    play a big part. If I'm not just imagining things, Rossi's front
    fairing seemed to resemble the Duc fairing a bit. (more coverage, more
    protection)

    Thoughts???

    Yesterday it was only on one bike. How many of the new fairing did they
    bring? The shape reminds me of the Ducati 916 and 999 race fairings. Not
    a double bubble but quite a high wrap round screen. And with the area
    above the hands filled in compared with the old Yamaha fairing. The big
    question is why did it take them so long?

    Allegedly, somebody got a peak into the back of a Yamaha transporter and
    saw 16 engines in there. I guess they've got a lot of testing to do on
    Monday. Including a new pneumatic valve engine?

    Interesting... anyone have any links to pictures of the new Yamaha
    fairings? I only got a glimpse of it on Rossi's bike during a
    motogp.com FP highlights clip.
