Rossi and team-♏mate Colin Edwards were seeking a solution to recent chatter problems with the new 2006 M1 at Sepang, and it is thought that the alternative tyre size was part of that process.
"We worked very well with Michelin and with one or two new tyr♎es that they brought we made some good improvements to the vibration (chatter)," said Rossi, with🤡out making any specific mention of a different tyre size.
Ros🏅si ended the test with the fourth fastest overall time, with💧 Edwards in seventh.
