Man..that was some moto2 race......6 crash at the first corner....couple of laps later another crashes and the bike catches fire.....the leader is penalized for passing under yellow but his team can't seem to make him understand the message to drop back one place.....so he is forced to do a drive through penalty which fucks him completely...and then the 6th or 7th placed rider crashes at the finish line...spectacularly!!!..... oh yeah....and Lorenzo wins again....although Pedrosa and Stoner had a good go for a while...
Yes, and the 125 was laclustre and everything else was pretty spread out. I can't believe the guy on the finishline came out with bumps and bruises- his bloody bike came flying on top of him. that happened to me and I was wearing all the gear- Broken pelvis, 9 ribs, collarbone, rebroken femur.... lucky prick
yeah i thought he was seriously injured too.........amazing really......dumb fuck for running into the guy in front though........
Lookie lookie, first big test with everyone on their 2011 rides... Final Day of Valencia MotoGP Test Pos.

Abraham..money over talent someone else deserves that ride waaay more than that sausage sucker. Nicky Hayden on the bike he rode in the race at Valencia already nearly a second down on Casey who is on a Honda for the first time and over a second up on Dovi who has been on the same Honda for 2 years... can't wait for the new season... Casey has to be a regular podium contender and I bet Whore-hey is a tad nervous
nah...casey is good but he falls to much and he is always fastest in practice...it is racing where he struggles....but i agree he will get the best out of the honda....most teams seem to be trying new engines...so that will be interesting...i like the ducati....big bang or screamer....awesome names for an engine.........are the HRC and repsol hondas the same??....and crutchblow.......nah.......as for lorenzo.....it will be interesting to see what happens without Rossi to do the bike testing....spies had a good first up run.....im still not 100% convinced he can do it...but I hope he goes well......
I have hopes for Spies, but in 2012- give him another year. He definately knows how to race it's the tracks and bike he needs to come to terms with. Look what he did with Yamaha in WSB- no one even came close to putting that bike at the pointy end in 2010 like he did in 2009... Casey has reasonable racecraft, still young and learning. Not sure if he will match up against wee Dani in his first year with Honda. Honda will be very strong though and I don't think Lorenzo will have it as easy as he did this year. It's poor Nicky Hayden I'm concerned about. 3 years on that Ducati and the results are not what I would expect given his past performances with Honda and in the AMA etc. Hopefully he does not turn into another Coiln alsoran Edwards. Crotchblow? Nah, me either. Should have stuck it out in WSB and made a name there. Talking about WSB... Laverty.... fingers crossed. Who is your pick for the Supers? I can't even imagine picking a champ for 2011 too many choices and Baggy might not be as hungry
Oh there was a really heartwarming interview with Andrew Stroud in the latest Two Wheels, I have so much time for that guy and in a way I'm glad he did not go to WSB, it would have ruined him. Nice guy, hard racer, Kiwi to be proud of Should have had a vasectomy though..another bloody bun in the oven.. that makes 8
2 years ago at the classic races at Puke he did some demo laps at the lunch break on a Britten. I will never forget being right up on the barrier on the home straight and watching him stand up on the pegs whilst pulling a mono, the whole length of the straight. I don't know how fast he was going but it looked bloody quick to me!! Very impressive!

yeah i saw him do that...magic.....he also did a great one down the front straight after last seasons final win at Hamptons...it would be great to have a Kiwi in the top riders..either WSB or MotoGP....we must have some 9 years olds we can send over...... wsb...i dunno...i lost interest in that this year......is superflu racing next year?....he seems to have it over laverty.......
No, stinkypoo is in Moto2 next year, had the last 2 races on a moto2 bike, lead his very first race for the first 10 or so laps Has the personality of cheese. Which reminds me, my g/f was talking about a guy at her work who is from Turkey. She said he sounded retarded. I said they all sound like that
HAH!!.....Ahhh turkey.....wonderful spas.........hairy woman.........all discussions sound like arguments........
