    • I hope we get more time to talk about this Rossi-Lorenzo-Stoner stuff!

      Rossi will make a decision about his career next year.. He'll know if he can win more on not. I'm sure if he thinks he can't win anymore championships.. he'll quit.

      Whether he's fading or the competition is getting better, its our point of view. The fact remains that Lorenzo is very talented, ambitious & only 22 years old! Rossi is 30, has won 6 MotoGP titles + 125 + 250. Rossi was as good or even better with he came to MotoGP. His 5 straight titles from 2001 to 2005 are an accomplishment we cannot deny.. Don't forget.. Rossi had no Valentino Rossi to beat but Lorenzo has... It's not that easy walk in the park for lorenzo also.. last 3 seasons has seen 3 different champs.. Nicky, Stoner & Rossi..!

      I believe one doesn't have to be a Rossi fan to accept the fact that he's a GOAT & is still the man to beat!

      Rest all is racing.. there are no scripts!

      • "Rossi falls on the straight heading into turn 2( NOT IN CORNER 2)"

        U will know that more that 70% of the breaking happens before the corner. Rossi was bit late and hard in braking, as he carried more speed out of turn 1. and ya he stood there starring at the data screen, so that his fans believe him. Not all can accept their mistakes.

        farm houses has no/minimal connection to the external world, even electricity will be generated by its own wind mill

        2007! full stop? good joke

        anyways leave it... The next interesting thing for me.. is not see what Stoner does now. will be interested in scoring as many points as possible or will he favor 1 of the top 2s, by splitting them on podium.

          Now its just abt riding to discuss i think ! And i wanna just say this again ' I m no Rossi fan ' ! Well IF u had ridden on MMSC track ! you will know MMSC C2 is similar to that Indy C2 ! just that the left hander in Indy carries to the tight 90 degree C2 ,compared to the right hander which carries it to C2 in MMSC !
          * You brake hard lock the front/ brake too late /run in too fast.. before corner , You avoid turn most of the time and run straight !<<< Similar to what vermuelen did when espargaro when straight onto him !
          * If u brake lock and try to turn without trailing u crash IN the CORNER ! but that did nt happen in Rossi s case .

          He crashed even before he started to trail the brake ! I accept he was quick into the corner ! But give this a thought !

          Try this if u want
          * Brake hard lock the front and try doin that on a plain good surface with the steering straight ( this is what the guys were doing on the racing line with enough rubber spent )
          * Brake hard lock the front ! go over a bump locked ! Tire air borne lands locked ! <You crash >

          Simple as that .

          @stoner points issue : Maybe now Dani s running around with high BP ! Its indeed a shame if he loses his 3 rd place in the Championship .

            No one denied that it was his mistake...cos obviously the bike was in his hand, he knew what to do and when to do. it was upto him. so obviously if he fell...it was his mistake...now the reason given was to justify why the mistake was commited...cos he deliberatley didnt just drop it down.

            Its just the way you take it. and about 2007..if stoner was faster and better...that still remains in the history books that he was the fastest in 2007. is he the fastest till today...if you say yes...i would say your missing out some significant data of the past 20-22 months
            Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

            • @ Suren! I know the MMSC track and ve ridden on the kari track. seeing the video I would say he crashed entering the corner, not on the straight.

              @R-series: ya its the way U take, oh No one said he is the fastest today, Its not 2007 and Full stop, its a 'comma'

              EDIT: Im no anti Rossi fellow, My wallpaper pic is the Rossi's poster on his 100th wins!

                Yup. That does remind me of Rossi's early year in the premier class.
                But atleast me, I dun fancy tat happening.

                I strongly feel that lorenzo shud have signed up for Ducati, that way Rossi would have to compete with a stronger bike.

                  Lorenzo clearly said he opted to stay with Yamaha because he wanted a race winning bike. Ducati might be the most powerfull...but at the moment not everyone can handle it. Lorenzo has had more than 1 and a half years on the M1 already..he knows he can win on it...and now develop it further. So it was safest to stay at yamaha.

                        Hmm one more interesting piece of news form visor down:
                        Lorenzo: "Rossi copies my settings" - Motorcycle racing news: Moto GP - Visordown

                        Makes me wonder if what Jeremy said was in reply to what Lorenzo said

                        @Mav wow you are going to the motogp race. It would be awesome to be seeing the race live in the arena . I envy you for it

                            see wht I mean.
                            Rossi has been devoloping that bike from 2004. When the Yammies were more of a underpowered bikes compared to the Hondas.

                            Lorenzo steps in, gets a decent ride, and upsets everything.

                            I wish the rule stating that the rookie rider wud have to join a
                            Satellite team was enforced a couple of years earlier
                            I cant wait to see the qualifyers and practice

He was Ok with it last year when Yamaha said ' Rossi s the present ..Lorenzo is the future ' and he even said ' Lorenzo has made the right choice to stay with Yamaha ' ! Now why cry when the team mate wins ? He has done it all ! Beat Hondas in and out ! Beat that red bike rider making him cry ! Why is he so afraid of this fellow ? ! Give him the same bike ! same settings ! then beat him ! Its just another feather to his wonderful hat of achievements !

                                Thats being purely Diplomatic, when he said, Lorenzo made the rite choice staying wid yamaha, he forgot to add NOT!, to his sentence

                                You see what wud really happen,

                                He's achieved so many things, and now Lorenzo steps in, Beats him wid the same machinery, that wud mean Lorenzo has achieved a Level more than him,isnt it??
