Maybe it's because they don't yet have the development and conditioning (backing by big dollars outfits), nor do they have the cultural support. Racing is still a "man's" world. That Valentina Rossi is probably sewing up or knitting up some shit right now because that's what she thinks is expected of her. Freedom and equal opportunity may be legally instituted but it is going to take a long time for women to grow out of their shell to overcome the societal roles and then we shall see.

You telling me that there isn't a woman out there who's at least physically capable as the midgets that are Pedrosa or Lorenzo?
