Motogp Special Section Front Tire Setup
After fitting the full-size 320mm carbon discs per Rossi's request for more braking power, he suffered problems with front wheel lockup. Crew chief Jeremy Burgess found that it was due to a lack of weight transfer onto the front tire during braking, so the crew raised the M1's ride height on both ends. Note that Rossi prefers the 16-inch front tire setup.
