It was said many times and by the King Agostini himself, tires a now too much important in the battle for the title.
To catch Stoner, who leads the championship with 44 points ahead Rossi, Yamaha asked to Michelin, by Yamaha's general manager for engineering operations, Masao Furusawa, to make a specific tyre for the M1.

Furusawa also has not been kind with the french tire supplier by saying : « Bridgestone is better than Michelin, absolutely. »

He also said that it was not impossible that Bridgestone becomes the new tire supplier for the official team, if Bridgestone would want to up its workload.

The yamaha team asked for a rubber providing better traction, better grip on the max lean angle and better reliability and consistancy.

About www.motorcyclists-online.com English version:
At the beginning, in 2001, www.motorcyclists-online.com was an exclusive French Motorcycle website. Now, since September 2005, it has become bilingual: English speaking people are welcome !
We do believe, at www.motorcyclists-online.com, that linguistic boundaries are not a problem when we share the same passion for bikes.
We are currently working on translating all articles and contents, to finish the UK/US version. You will certainly notice some bugs or translation errors: please do not hesitate to advise us by e-mail, Private Message or by posting in the Forum. Your help is welcome !
For the moment, articles which haven’t been human translated are automatically machine translated, which I must confess is not really famous, but faster than human translators.
