    You need to sue your math teacher. I think you said they were more incidents than one can count.

    "1"

    See how easy that was? :)

    If Hayden is a bully what the hell is Toseland? Stuffs the one who likes "roughing other riders up" (Lorenzo) in Qatar then did it again to others on numerous occasions at Jerez.

    I always thought he was a bit wishy-washy but my opinion of him has changed considerably.

    I just watched the 250GP race. DAMN. That was a takeout. I would come up swinging.

    I didn't realize russell and james are racing 250s. :)

    ^ thats riding style by comparison between "smooth" GP riding and downright crazy ass WSBK racing.

    Baustista's engine started to seize when he went into that corner. That's why there was no drama in the gravel pit: both guys felt they caused the crash.

    WOW. That explains it. I didn't see Baustista's bike didn't wiggle until he was a$$packed. Sucks for them.

    I don't think anyone could tell from the pictures. The Eurosport guy in the pitlane reported it between the races.
     
  9. Wow Papa, that is interesting. I definatly could not tell that the bike was siezing up just by watching the race. You damn frenchmen get all the good info.

    Do you watch WSBK at all? That is what WSBK racing is about and it is far more exciting. They trade paint often.

    MotoGP racing has been boring for the last several years. Are the princess' in MotoGP afraid to rub a little fairing? We know Rossi isn't. What about the rest? :p
     
  11. Moto GP was boring last year, not for the last several years. Did you watch Mugello in 2006? What about Assen? Estoril? Valencia?

    If you watch the overhead view of that crash in the 250 race......you can see the lead bike slow down when he should have been accelerating on the corner exit. That contributed to the crash. Must have been the motor letting go.

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    The way he pushed it I'm not surprised. Yeah it was amazing to me there was no gravel throwing. Guess I'm used to watching Americans.:p
     
  15. if you watch the video...you can just see the leader slightly sit up right before impact.

    once in the gravel trap and on their feet, bautista pulled back like he was going to punch simoncelli.
