MotoGP | Misano | Italy |2018 | Sep 7 - 9

I cant even imagine anything that is more steeped in controversy. mad props to the VR for his no show!

 

VR? Probably atheist anyway.

Pope Francis - "What does WLF mean?..."

 

You talking about WLF on his leathers or the acronym WTF??

 

Long Live the Fig leaf.

 

Unlikely. Rossi is a personal friend of the Catholic priest in his hometown.

 

MM93 looked flat out sad and partially embarrassed when Rossi said there was nothing to mend because there wasnt a beef. Poor kid lol

 

Rossi's gonna have a hell of a time explaining that statement to Uccio when he gets home tonight.

 

They asked twice for them to "make peace". Mark said no problem and vale shook his head. It's all weird, donno why people are asking them to shake hands

 

People need drama/negativity for excitement.

 

Rossi is pissed that the rider he helped to mold - aggressive style and all - is whooping his ass while still idolizing him. He can't allow the Valeban to accept Marc because having the most fans is the one record Rossi may still hold when his career is over

 

That look on Dovi's face in the back sums up how I feel about the whole thing.

 

Oh shit, didn't see the press conference yet, seems it was one of those "How do you feel?" pressers?

Some journos are so friggin' soapy...

 

maybe this is a requirement of the ducati and why lorenzo suffered early, but have you guys seen the guns on lorenzo and dovi lately? they are in Arnold territory, like get to the choppa territory. especially dovi.

 

It looks a whole lot more impressive when you're the size of a stunted teenager. What are they, 5'5"?

 

FP1 .. Cal's been off the track twice now .. and we still have 13 minutes left . It appears with him almost having " the Pace " , the Italian Gravel Sirens will be singing his name loudly

 

FP2 just about to start . Should be a good one

 

Dovi fastest in both P1 and P2. George close behind. Hope it's a close race on Sunday.

 

LOL
