Just got done watching the DVR - looked like a pretty good spill. Glad to hear he'll be okay :up: And I'm hoping all this bad juju does a complete 180 for him next season, because this year's just been ridiculous.
The second half really has been pretty astounding for him. If he can tie it all together next year Repsol may have themselves another 'unstoppable'.
Pedrosa this year looks to have turned the corner as a mature...season long racer. I may have to change my outlook on him next year. This year.....GO JORGE LORENTHO!!!!!!!!
Maybe all the bones that could be broken have been replaced with metal rods already.. he is a robot after all.
Arrogant and reckless may be better words. The two races that come to mind immediately are Assen and Montegi. At Assen he used Kent as a berm more than once at very high speed, then threw a tantrum that Kent passed him for the win at Montegi. I've seen other things this season that I'd characterize that way too, but the specifics aren't coming to mind right now.
Teenager in a WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP = emotions take over from Logic, does not exscuse reckless riding and tantrum fits, but clearly explains it
What does Stoner say is wrong though? The solutions that would make it more interesting (more CRTs, control ECU, etc.) he's against. Basically, he lives in a fantasy world where there's a grid of 20 multi-million-dollar factory bikes with riders that never get in his way during practice. Rossi says MotoGP need less electronics. At least that's specific.
That Malaysian guy in moto2 was exciting! I don't know if I've ever heard a crowd on TV like that before.
Man.....from faded brakes to assploding engines to god knows what else... Glad Ben is seemingly ok. Looked ugly at first. If I was him, I think I would seriously consider parking that bike for the rest of the year before it kills him.
I hope for his sake he has taken a massive salary for next year on the spaggetti thing What a waste of a man who showed nothing but brilliance a few years ago, first he whipped MM arse then the world, now he can hardly finish a race or Qualify session due to either bike trouble or hes crashed it again
