yep for sure, haga got off to bad start this season, too flustered with the biaggi hot botty.!! (like all over riders and teams biaggi has rode for) but hopefully haga can stay on it :2up . this sundays gp should be good dog fights ;) stoner will be determined as hell which may lead to frustration and a crash. see how it all pans out :log

im surprised nobody has commented on todays race ! i thought lorenzo was awesome again even tho i wanted rossi to win , good result for toseland at a track thats new to him , i was happy for edwards too in 4th

quote of the day belongs to randy mamola after the first few laps he said "im on the edge of my seat an im not actually sitting down" , it made me chuckle anyway

Was going to last night as it seems you and Kami are big Rossi fans. Just wish Rossi stayed with michelin. Two years without winning the championship, if he dosent win it this year dont think he will again.
Lorenzo has so far proved awesome and more of a match for Rossi, Dani also has a new lease of life. Hope the bridgestones start working soon as I would love to see Rossi back on the top step.

Imagine you are Mr Michelin.

Mr Rossi says your tyres are shizzle and he wants Bridgestones.

How much would you give to the research department to make him eat his words?

A tenner?


... seems to me there was nothing wrong last year except Rossi wasn't good enough. Sour grapes and all that, he had to have an excuse, so blamed the tyres.

Rossi isn't hungry enough BIG FULL STOP!

Disagree. Last year Bridgestone took 5 out of the first 7 places at the end of the year including first place. This year thye haven't had it so easy. Michelin seem to have done a lot of catching up.

I think Vale fcuked up on tyre choice at Estoril. Most the others were running medium/hards whilst he was running softs. Cost him near the end.

I think Rossi has screwed up on tyre choice too - by going to Bridgestone.

Seeing Lorenzo on the same bike but with Michelins getting three poles and a race win says it all. Fair enough, Michelin has a better qualifier anyway but they seem to have made great strides on race tyres this year after last years pasting.

Estoril didn't favour Bridgestones last year however with Rossi winning and 3 of the top 4 on Michelins so perhaps it's a little too early to tell.

Big up to Lorenzo. The boy done good :worthy

Oh yeah..... forgot to add: where is kamikazee?

Could have edited my post but decided to use a kamikazee style "I'll post again immediately after my own post" way of doing it.
