  • Not going to celebrate just yet. Waiting for the qualifier
    Looking similar to Jerez. Rainy race should be a cracker.

    Meanwhile from motomatters tweets:
    Google Translate

    Looks like a lot of bad blood between Stoner and Rossi...probably more than between him and Lorenzo

      • Hope it rains in Qp and Race.

        FP3 doesnt matter. Rossi once topped the rain-soaked warm up once,
        Race timing went back to normal again :|

        Hopper Out. No words to express,how bad I 'm feeling.......

        Edit:

        Qualifying

        Rossi 6th, Thats second row. Now Rossi can see the Lights

          • Damn...hopper gets injured.., lets hope this doesn't affects his BSB chances...

            Improvement for Ben Spies might be difficult, the Texan struggling with a trapped nerve. Though immensely painful, he had no idea how it had happened, the pain starting suddenly as he sat at the table a couple of days ago. Physiotherapy was helping a little, but he needed a miracle cure to be truly competitive. Still, 6th overall at the end of the first day was not bad, but Spies was nowhere near 100%.

            • From when do the races start, espnstar seems to loose its head. They are showing nothing in the tv schedule list.

              Comment


              • Same with euro sports . Got one link but they started showing the race very late. I generally listen to the euro sports commentary as they are more entertaining.



                Edit: Wow! don't blink you'll miss it superb race.
                Massively impressed with Bradl. He has got a thinking head.

                  • Nice racing, Both 125 and Moto2 were intense...

                    Bit confused after the WUP motogp. And the temp hotter than y'day....
                    I think I read somewhere, Rossi was on softer rear, at fp3...... ...

                    • wasted oppertunity for Pedrosa. Did he try to be too fast too soon !!
                      Cal crashed again !! These Hondas are good. When someone like Dovi passes Lorenzo with that much ease, the bike has to be special !! Dovi is good, but not that good !!
                      Suzukis are definitely improved
                      Stoner has checked out. He will have a full race gap of Lorenzo !!
                      Kawasaki Ninja : Because lazy sunday afternoons should be despatched at 160 kmph!!!
                      Hyosung Aquila : Because sometimes you need to look cool while riding at 40 kmph and you can do that only on a cruiser !!!

                      • Looks like championship decided with today's result and dismal tyre choice by Lorenzo.
                        Only one alien today i.e. going to be dad happy Stoner

                          Unfortunately looks like it !! Cant DORNA enforce some kind of rule whereby, Honda has to make 4 factory bikes n force them to be given to the 4 aliens !! That will make sure the sparks fly !!

                          I have a feeling Stoner is gonna make this season really boring by going on a 2007esq winning spree !! AAAARRRGGH ....

                          • ^^Then it would be Honda Championship racing instead of MotoGP

                            Happy for Spies that he could last the whole race.

                            Looks like number 1 plate jinx is continuing
                            Congrats to Sic!!! for the Podium
                            Rossi improving from 30seconds gap to 12 seconds. Good for him.

                            Damn it!!! My fantasy motogp prediction went for a toss with only Rossi's position correct

                            • I was really hoping Rossi overtakes the yamahas !! But one ray of hope !! If the whole Rossi-Ducati deal does go south, I have a feeling Suzuki might just be coming up as a viable option !!!!!!
                              I mean if Bautista can stay with Rossi on it, I hope Rossi might stay with Simoncellis and Dovis on it !! Plus the cash Rossi might bring for further development !!

                              • As we had been mentioning earlier, Suzuki isn't sitting idle:
                                Rizla Suzuki MotoGP - News - Massive potential but no result for Rizla Suzuki at Brno
                                New electronics, chassis, etc...

                                Both Bautista and Hopper (he also praised about the Suzuki package since Jerez where he last rode the bike)

                                Unfortunate that Bautista binned the bike both in Laguna and here in Brno. He was better than Ducatis and only behind Yamaha and Honda factories.
