If you can afford to go Rossi (20m), which has five wins Catalan MotoGP and has won the last three races (see but I am pretty sure). He took pole in the 2007 race here.

Pedrosa is already showing his usual consistency impressive, with five podium results in the first six races. Good record in the lower classes to track - but he used the new engine? (see story on page engines) may be a risk despite finishing on the podium Mugello 2006 champion Nicky

Hayden could also go with the new engine - making it even risky, as a rebound for this race. Waste of money, despite holding the record here Casey Stoner not in contention for the title - unless he goes into a streak of victories sharpish - But secondly the last time indicated that out is back among the big boys Rookie Jorge Lorenzo has dazzled with his speed, although it has been carrying the ankle injury since last GP of China. And crashed in the last race, but somehow thjat not aggravate.

Good track record in lower classes ramp. Said thinks the title se ha ido, but well worth a rebound in the second-lowest price in this game (mark) Andrea Dovizioso is motivated to improve their position in the championship rankings supported by the trust he has with the Barcelona circuit in the last three seasons it has always been on the podium with a win and two third positions.

Team

If you are a believer Rossi - and let's face it is not - and you fancy Lorenzo decent for a walk is not that much of stretch to go to Fiat Yahama. Repsol Honda deserves a point if you are in the Stoner / Hayden camp.

Rossi could be on a Yamaha, but I have a sneaky feeling Honda could triumphs. Pedrosa, Dovizioso, De Angelis and Hayden are all capable of podium finishes
