Dani Pedrosa asserted, Valentino Rossi could not be written off as a strong contender in the MotoGP world championship title race of 2011. Although his debut as a Ducati rider was not too smooth, but "The Doctor" keep rider with very good quality.
Rossi ended the first official test this pre-2011 season with a bad outcome because it is ranked 11th. In contrast, Honda appeared very powerful trio with Marco Simoncelli (Gresini Honda) to be the leader, followed by Repsol Honda duo, Pedrosa, and Casey Stoner.
Nevertheless, Pedrosa, Rossi also considering as a serious challenger. Because the seven-times MotoGP world champion is have the ability to change everything at the beginning of the new season.
"Reputation Rossi undeniable," Pedrosa said in his blog. "This is his first season with Ducati and in Malaysia he had not entered the ranks of the fastest rider. But Rossi is Rossi, and you can never rely on anything. Even when he was in last place on Saturday (qualifying), he still remains has the potential to surprise. "
Spanish rider was also wary of the Yamaha team. In pre-season test in early February, the world champion Jorge Lorenzo duet with Ben Spies appear quite consistent. They remain a threat.
"Currently, the Honda RC212V seems to function properly. We'll see what happens when we entered the first series this year because everything can change in there. You never know, but from now on, it is seen that the competition will run very tight.
"Yamaha continues to be in a good rhythm. Lorenzo, as the defending champion, is a rival to be defeated, and Spies having a great season in 2010 and of course it would be great again this year."
