    caferace No.

    Or look at it this way ...

    It takes strategery. :D

    As the riders say, it's the Same for Everyone.
    Them's some bright lights.
    Awesome! What commercials did the rest of us miss? :crackup:
    Dovi essentially said in the post-QP press conference it wouldn't matter. Rossi was nodding his head.
    :stupid: :up:
    2007 or so. China 2005 since the last time zero Spaniards across all three classes.
    Those aren't anything special. Anyone can run them. The only thing they're good for is cooling anyway.

    Great race. Excellent start to the season. :clap:

    Cooling?

    The aero-wings look like they're located and shaped to provide downforce on the front tire?

    Not a huge Pedrosa fan but the arm pump issue sounds serious....hate to see his career end like that.

    Then he can not cash those giant checks from HJC and wander over and buy himself some Arais.

    He's a bitch with a bitch face and bitch voice. :D

    I also don't think I've ever heard podium interviews where every rider was completely out of breath. Those guys clearly laid it all on the line today.

    Hmmm, if he's had this problem for awhile Honda must have been aware of it. Makes Stoner's testing all the more interesting.

    caferace No.

    Yes, they do. Intriguing, isn't it? :crackup:

    Run through some aerodynamics in your head and get back to us. Note that movable wing surfaces are against the rules.

    Seriously!

    I'm a fan of his, but when your team mate wins, that nullifies most common complaints. But c'mon, you don't lead the majority of the laps and fade in the last 3-5 because of your helmet liner. I bet he has a mental or physical conditioning issue he needs to work on. ( I say from my couch and keyboard).

    They're all riding gods anyway, I'm nothing.

    Hope this is a sign of the season to come!!

    Thank you Gigi!

    VR46 awesome!!!

    And these guys say Casey was whining? (Watch them line up in defense)

    Lorenzo had problem with foam lining of his helmet sliding down and obscuring his view, dropped him out of victory fight. Qatar #MotoGP


    He's been wearing these for how long? Including the past four days. Man he is beating the crap out of his butler right now.

    banzai132 Oh shit! not again!

    That looked like a typical Rossi ride from '04-'05 when he was racing Gibernau

    There's a pic on Twitter and it looks like he's not kidding. The only other rider I remeber having a helmet issue was Spies...also wearing HJC. They're crap helmets IMO just based on feel. And weren't they banned by one org here in US??

    Found the pic...

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    Haha just getting the faithful wound up. First Marquez shows up then Rossi finds speed and all of sudden Pedrosa and Lorenzo are having problems with bees, arm pump and helmets. :D





    But Smith's brollie girl...

    Sorry, carry on.

    Yeah I'd think at 200mph that would be a bit distracting.

    If Casey Stoner had said something like that even if his helmet fell apart you guys would be jumping all over it lol.
