    The Rossi crash

    If that slippery shit wasn't there he would have rejoined a whole lot easier and only lost a few places :P
    If that slipery shit wasnt there he would have been on slippery grass and I suspect the result would have been just the same

    For the record Qkkid was in my bed, not the other way round

    If there'd been a concrete wall there he'd have lost a lot more than a couple of places. But there wasn't. And it was.

    So true, he fucked up and should be appropriately punished.

    If they made the track infinitely wide they'd just ride in a giant circle.

    True but you could apply that to every accident and have no safety?
    Track design shouldn't go from ripple strip, to slippery, to hard, (grip,slip,grip) its was that combination that made it a highside flicking the rider high in the air. If they go to grass it should stay grass till the gravel trap, there is no doubt that the different surfaces was a dangerous combination.
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!

    Crazy Joe was straight onto the grass and still had a nasty tumble.

    99% of circuits are grass off the track and don't have those extra tarmac bits. So traditionally he would've gone from track to grass to wall.

    Those extra tarmac areas aren't there to be used as part of the racing line, which is exactly what happens if you don't have some way of stopping racers from doing so.

    Exactly. Thankfully at Aragon the bits where there aren't tarmac areas for run off or sand traps the nearest obstruction is a long, long way from the track. Although that didn't exactly help Nicky Hayden when he went over the fence on the last turn.

    Read that DidJit, Crutchless always seems to be name dropping, comparing himself others.
    I think he has one more chance next year and was lucky to get that.
    Over rated (by Poms mainly and himself).
    But this guy was special.

    A Quote from another site that I totally agree with

    "He seem overly pre-occupied with what other riders are doing and what equipment they have"

    I still really like the guy though, do not forget how good he was last year on Tech bikes, and he will be good again next year on the Honda. Also pay attn to the comparison he used re him and dovi getting results and how long it took Dovi also
