Fiat yamaha look to be doing there sponsors proud...... They have the field covered lol

That crash of Hernandes in Moto2 looked painful!! I cant understand how he dropped to 12th? He clearly crossed the line and was 8th even though he was crashing. You would think if your not aloud to crash across the line you wouldnt get any points rather then drop to 12th

It wasn't Hernandes, it was Morales. He wasn't classified so there must be some rule saying that the rider and bike must cross the line on 2 wheels?? But yes, big crash. What about turn 1, debon doesn't like his start so just tries the pass up the inside grass and takes out half a dozen guys, what a muppet.

Motogp race was shaping up to be good but then stoner ran wide and dovi crashed and it was another yawn fest. Man rossi needs to get back fast!

[Crasherfromwayback]

I don't think Rossi would have an answer for Lorenzo right now.

[NZsarge]

I don't think Rossi would have an answer for Lorenzo right now.
Yes he would.

[NZsarge]

I don't think Rossi would have an answer for Lorenzo right now.
Yes he would. Lorenzo thought that going through the last corner at Catalunya last year too...

[Crasherfromwayback]

Lorenzo is a completely different animal this year mate.

[NZsarge]

Maybe, maybe not. I think he was pretty on it last year too until Rossi got into his head by doing the likes of the above mentioned numbers on him. But what ever, it gets back to we'll never know but don't think for a minute that I don't think George did'nt totally deserve to win the race.

[Crasherfromwayback]

I'm going to Valencia for the seasons last GP...be good to get amongst the mad Spaniards!

Well that would explain it!! Cheers mate

Yep, that'll be some crazy shit alright!

[Crasherfromwayback]

Certainly looks like a big party! I'll take plenty of pics of the local Spanish Ladies for ya!

[roadracingoldfart]

I don't think Rossi would have an answer for Lorenzo right now.

And if he did offer an answer it would go like this ...... "My team mate too fast for me , i loose to better rider ".

[Crasherfromwayback]

I would've thought more like... "Lorenzo has been copying all of my settings...is not fair". Sound familiar?

Nah , you mean thats what Haga says about Corser :innocent::yes:
Rossis setting didnt help the sub rider much aye !! as if :blink:

[Crasherfromwayback]

Meaning Stoner was totally correct about the guy. A waste of space.

[lukemillar]

Nah - it's just the rider needs to be in contact with the bike. Otherwise no-one would wheelie over the line! Still - very nasty crash though.

[lostinflyz]

if you look closely at the replays, morales's bike contacts him clearly after the start finish line, therefore he was in contact with his bike (wheels on back is still contact), which i beleive is the ruling, or maybe it is mounted??

anyway the guy rode really well, and deserves the finish....
