Boring Race.
Maybe Both Lorenzo and Pedrosa were not 100 % cud be the reason

Whats going on with SiC. Is he competing with Randy on contest to visit the gravel trap??

That over take by stoner from the outside was awsome.

But waiting for Brno. Hope to see Rossi on top, or near the top again.....

Tweet from David Emmett:

he he he. In a way convincing Stoner not to go so that his own absence doesn't impact the points table much

So if both of them don't go and along with couple of others, then the mid packs would have a great chance of getting podiums and probably wins too

It is his second year in Gresini honda and he needs to finish higher in the points table.
And I am sure he must have had a tough talk with the team manager.
A big reason for that would be the fact that next year there will be only two factory Hondas and Sic's place might be tentative in the wake of giving Dovi a seat.
I don't think Aoyama will be removed mainly because of his nationality and Honda wants a Jap rider on the grid.

Concentrating too hard I guess and also it is only his second year in Laguna Seca.

Dovi might get the gresini honda.........

**Braumabull** · 07-26-2011, 07:41 PM

SICs being too casual. The way he was beating everybody in FP and QP in previous races I thot he might be the one battling Stoner. Cuz same machine's but SiC is a better racer than Stoner, but said.

I feel even Rossi felt that he should let Hayden pass him, cuz it wasnt worth fighting for sixth place. He would have earned much respect.

Now lets see where this heads

EDIT:

Poor Dovi, will be taken off the factory team.
Hope Stoner goes to gresini

That's the talking point from "not supposed to overtake" (due to the difficulties the rider was facing all weekend) to "becoming evident that it will overtake sooner or later" (due to team finding out the solution on the race morning)

Stoner pulled the same move in LS08, as he did with Jorge this Sunday, with Rossi too but was overshadowed by the race result itself.

At 1:02

Speaking of LS'08, he did it twice. At the start of lap 4 and then at the start of lap 14 again, but 2nd time he ran wide.
Last year Rossi had made similar move on Dovi.

And I still believe if Lorenzo was fully fit he could have won. He gave up after Stoner passed him.

speaking on where who will be next year.. I feel its time for Suzuki to get 2 riders, Bautista's team has improved the big to fight at 6-8th position. Now they need another rider in. Who will it be?

**princesirohi** · 07-27-2011, 06:11 AM

^^ what about kawasaki then, they don't even participate....?

**sheelpriye** · 07-27-2011, 10:40 AM

Will Honda sack Stoner? More coming...

Mouth outweighing talent, ha.

**Braumabull** · 07-27-2011, 11:16 AM

One thing I dont understand about Stoner. Whats his deal???

He tops the lists in FPs and Qps, wins races but still complains or rather whines about having a difficult weekend, and this happens every weekend.

Does he wants to prove that despite facing problems ,he wins the race and even breaks lap records?? bloody loser. Hope he gets the Gresini as a #2 rider or his LCR to get back to his crashing ways..

I remember catalunya 2009, when rossi took the win on the last corner. Stoner had a battle with Dovi and got the 3rd position. He was literally crying. Hope he gets to learn how to behave from Dovi and Pedrosa.

**prabhubravo** · 07-27-2011, 11:22 AM

^^ Another view could be - He puts in a good Qualifying lap on Soft tires even if his race pace is not at the top. This years leguna Seca was so. Crying for 3rd place is acceptable. But he had complained even after a win!!

Kawasaki No news on them. May be a CRT?

**Braumabull** · 07-27-2011, 03:16 PM

Hope Stoner ends up like Max, when HRC were not ready to give him any machines....

.......
This way they can have some good racers(Dovi & Ped) and there wouldnt be any confusion.

Thinking way too far, dont I??
hehe

Suzuki should start investing now on building good bikes(are they gonna withdraw too Like Kwackers?? ). They need to win races. Bored to see these Hondas.

**xionite** · 07-27-2011, 03:28 PM

Stoner is the new Lorenzo.

so many haters.

whiny or not... who cares really... the guy is brilliant!

Agree. The typical Australian attitude, experienced mildly at cricket matches

but when its racing its "Stay out of my way!".

**Braumabull** · 07-27-2011, 08:36 PM

Stoner is a person who cant handle success Like Lorenzo.

He need to take some lessons from another awsome aussie,Bayliss.

Its stoner, at the moment. Pedrosa is sure to bounce back. And still hopes with Rossi..

Is it possible that SiC and Dovi not getting the same bike as the 2 other Repsol Hondas??

**TheRedPill** · 07-27-2011, 09:17 PM

Yup don't blame it on Aussie attitude. Outright and straight forward talk can be attributed to Aussie culture but not the whining

that's his own forte

So the next season's movements (or rather the rumors and mind games) are kicking:
de Puniet: unlikely to move to WSB - Motorcycle racing news: WSB - Visordown

Losing out a ride or a move to WSB or anywhere else won't be good as everybody will be new to motogp big changes next year
