When Valentino Rossi said: “I believe that the 800s are the greatest error of the World Championship in the last 15 years.
A lot of the spectacle of riding has been lost because on them the electronics have advanced so much”” and “for me the manufacturers committed a great error in coming from 990 to 800cc.

” almost everyone who has been following MotoGP in the last years could only nod their heads in complete agreement.

The 800’s are unpopular not only with fans, but with riders too.
The displacement change from 990cc to 800cc, that was originally proposed to limit horsepower and reduce top speeds (it didn’t work) forced all the manufacturers to redesign a new bike costing millions of dollars in R&D, now with the world trying to climb out of the economic crisis and manufacturers reeling from their losses, Dorna’s CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta has come out again with the idea of going back to the 1000cc.

As the rules enforcing the 800 class end at the 2011 season, we could see the 1000’s back in 2012, only if there were to be an unanimous agreement among the manufacturers, but at least they’re going to be talking about it this weekend at Valencia and that is at least a step in the right direction.
