    I dunno if it'll work
    worked like a charm. also LOL at "Jack Meehoff"

    Thanks for persevering.

    I really like Marquez. But its easy to have a good time when you are the best rider on the best bike with the full weight of HRC behind you. Even Dani seemed a bit chipper.

    I am trying not to feel sorry for Jorge after spending a few years thinking he is a bit of a dick.

    I remember seeing crutchlow interviewed a while back and he suggested every week every rider turns up and rides a different bike from each team. That'll sort out the greats and 'also ran'. Make for a real exciting championship I reckon.

    No because the racing is about the best package. the rider is part of it but I love all the techy shit too. I used to be fascinated by the tyre wars, and the different development strategies of the various manufacturers. And as an example Stoner was the only person who could ride the Ducati: but other riders as talented could not. (Mr Rossi for example).

    By your logic they should all be on the SAME bike (not at once....) but basically a grid full of the same bike. and to limit costs they should all be from one manufacturer, one tyre and all engines and transmissions sealed including the ECU.

    Yay. That would be proper racing where the best man won.

    all teams should have the same rules. the problems is that there just isn't the money, or teams, to go around.
    And they should be allowed to choose what ever tyres they want but in today's world money talks.

    I used to love the gp and F1 back in the 80's/90's, but when watching schumacker beat everyone by a lap it tends to get a bit boring.
    Moto3, moto2 and to some extent A1, is great to watch due to the close racing not for what they are riding/driving, but putting them all on the same bike will not do much for development.

    I do still think we are in for a great season.

    Henry, it was not my logic, I was quoting crutchlow. And its not all the same bike either....everyone rides everyones bikes...

    But it doesnt matter as its never going to happen so it is irrelevant

    Lol. Think you're twisting thing to get free beer. When people said Stoner quit hal way through oa season or threatened to leave if he didn't get his own way I mentioned several people that'd done likewise or worse. I don't see that as a Stoner vs Rossi thing sorry. But I'll shout you some beer next VMX I get to for trying.
