I would have been spinning on my bleeedin head. Spies? Nothin but a little grin that suggested he was having unclean thoughts about an umbrella girl. WTF?
    Stoner was poking fun at him in the post race press conference after he said that the adrenalin was still pumping and Spies just sat there and took it.

    A couple of strange guys right there - maybe the term alien is more to do with the fact that no one sits next to them in the hospitality tent rather than anything to do with riding ability.

    In life there are mainly two types of people. Those that crave attention, and those that would rather not have it. Rossi and Lorenzo would die without it, Stoner and Spies would suffocate with too much of it.

    Spies learned to deal with Mind games through Matt Maladin, Matt taught this man well, mentally and as a competitor

    Greetings from a Tuscan Village where I sit drinking a glass of local red wine... the area is lovely and I can't wait to get to the track tomorrow for the Friday practice sessions. More to come...

    Enjoy!

    Meanwhile, in the paddock, the hot weather has begun to affect temperaments...

    Lol, fucken awesome. Ol' Super Sic has done more to make the sport interesting in the past few weeks than Rossi has in years.
