    2011 Estoril MotoGP Friday Roundup: Of Insults, Shoulders, And Thunderstorms

    loved the parts:

    "Stoner says a lot of things which aren't true," Rossi claimed. "He says I signed with Ducati because I was forced to, I had no other choice, because I cannot get the same money because of Lorenzo [Rossi's former teammate at Fiat Yamaha]. He speaks about my shoulder like he was the best shoulder doctor in Melbourne Hospital. But he doesn't know nothing," Rossi said. The reason for this was simple, Rossi explained. "He [Stoner] never got over losing at Laguna Seca."

      • bickering like 5 year old kids...., mindgames, gesturing, hate etc all is fine...but this ,

        From motomatters article...

        Rossi also let slip just how afraid he had been in the months following his shoulder injury, as the injury and subsequent surgery had taken such a long time to heal. Riders are used to dealing with broken bones, Rossi explained, and coming back quickly after such a break. The length of time that the damaged ligaments and muscles in his shoulder had taken to heal had had him worried, Rossi admitted, and had even made him doubt he would ever be able to return at his old level.
        Valentino Rossi does not often descend to a tirade.....which is what made Rossi's litany of complaints so remarkable.
        where is the rossi of old days??...cool, casual, no one knew what went inside his mind....perhaps he is getting old...

        It is hard to escape the conclusion that Jorge Lorenzo is feeling a bit left out by the war of words between Rossi and Stoner. That would appear to be the only rational explanation for Lorenzo choosing today to launch an attack on Marco Simoncelli. Simoncelli was far too aggressive in his riding, and was going to get somebody injured, Lorenzo said.
        Jlolly the attention seeker....

        • qualifying is on ten action
          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 !!!

          • QP Results: LOR - Sic - PED - STO - SPI - DOV - EDW - CRU - ROS - BAR - AOY - ABR - HAY - CAP - BAU - RdP - ELI #MotoGP QP The final minute was insane! Stoner almost made it to the first line but lost it to pedrosa at the last lap!
            RIP Marco Simoncelli! You will not be forgotten!

                Well that last lap jump from Pedrosa pushed him to the second row!

                    Yes,he looked very desperate today.Pushing things to the max..
                    Whenever,I see him race I am always thinking he'll fall the very other corner or so.That little boy works very hard.I like-Pedrosa,for this reason only.He's like,5% talent and 95% hard work.

                    My predictions for tomorrow's race-Lorenzo will rule Estroil again and continue his winning saga.Among other racers who'd share podium with Lorenzo.It would be from the trio-Stoner,Spies and Pedrosa.Simoncelli will definitely crash in between somewhere.Rossi will finish 4th or 5th.

                    My predictions will only hold good if its a dry race.

                      5%? i think he deserves a little more credit than that.

                      2nd. he's had 2nd position for brief moments at Losail & Jerez...
                      both at C1... hope he can make it stick tomorrow.

                          LOL.Actually,won't lie here.I have read this sort of '95-5%' comment on youtube or on motogp forum else where.So,it kinda got stuck in my head.Yes,he does deserve a lot-lot more credit than that.

                          About the modifications you have done to my predictions,I am perfectly fine with it..
                          Also,you are very right.Wet races are a hell of a lot more fun.

                          The race will telecast on Star sports/Neo/Ten sports.Not sure about the timings though.May be after 5pm.

                          EDIT: See guys,there is something cooking between Simoncelli and Lorenzo.Interesting from Race point of view...

                                I am afraid he hasnt, if you check the motogp Qualifying Result, he is out side the 107% rule.

                                The fastest lap is 1:46:556 secs = 106.556 secs

                                Apply 107% rule 106.556 * 1.07 =114.01492 = 1:54:01492 secs.

                                Sarath is outside it.
