Another record beckons this weekend.....4 poles & wins in a row anyone?

I sure as hell wouldn't bet against it happening.

I'm all for that mate. Didn't mean I'm not all for a tech war. I'd just like to see things simplified somehow.



Yes it was mate! Very different! Tuners actually tuned (jetting, diff porting, chambers etc etc)...now they're not even allowed inside the fucking engines! And you know as well as I do running a two stroke engine is chaeper than a four stroke. Look what's happened in the moto-x world! Chucking fresh rings and pistons at the things (with a fresh crank here and there) is a whole lot cheaper than running one of these beasts I'll bet.

Now I know we can't go back to smokers...and whilst I def have rose tinted specs on regarding the old girls...I also love the new 250hp diesels. I just want to see some sort of formular like they had back in the day. I mean...don't you miss the vee five RCV? I sure do! Let them have 1000cc...as many cyls as you want...but run diff weights per amount of cyls used...limit them to 6 gears....then leave them to it! Oh...and leave out the electronic aids. That'll save some money I'm sure.

The v3s,400cc,v4 were all responses to rules.i am with you pete,we need to have the say factory 800 which are vitually open to anything,but the rest can be say older 1000 or 990 ,smokers etc,all open slather,with some weight limits or something

Well MM treated qualifying a bit different this time. He has been in the habit of going out fast, this time he took pole from Jorge with his final lap.

Was listening to the MotoPod podcast this morning. They were toying with the idea that Dorna might make it worth Rossi's while to move to WSB. Assen had good attendances, but some other venues have falling crowd numbers. The thought was that WSB needs an injection of interest. A couple more fourth places and Rossi might agree?

Personally I think it'd be a shame to see. Like being put out to pasture. He's too much of a GP legend for that I reckon.

Could be in for a closer race this week?

[Crasherfromwayback]

So come Sunday...I'm going for...

MM

Rossi (a fucking master round Jerez)

Pedro

Lorenzo

So what do I win for that?

[Shaun Harris]

Way to many Largers and a great nanner nap, gusess I will see the race next weekend then haha

[DidJit]

So what do I win for that?

[roogazza]

Gets the old ticker going,those first two laps.
Bradley'julian ryder'Smith in his rightful place ?

I don't like to sound like a fan boy, but it seems Rossi still has the ability to dominate the pack...except for Marquez. The little guy really is the next, well, Rossi.

Stoner had the goods to beat a lot of the records, but he wouldn't have had the time I don't think. Marquez would have shown up during Stoner's reign and spoiled it methinks.

Rossi's always been a Jerez weapon...but I do agree he's having a great season. Tis good to see. Yep. I think if Stoner was even thinking about a comeback seeing MM wipe the floor with everyone would put a stop to those thoughts. Pity we'll never see though.

I'm disappointed that Dani is having such a great start to his season for once, and doesn't stand a chance this year either.

He would be a great choice for Suzuki next year, since I predict Honda will try and get Jorge on their second bike.

Yes, a shame for the punters that Stoner buggered off.

I don't know how you came up with that prediction, you must have been tripping? That result was almost truth is stranger than fiction stuff. We may have to delay Rossi's departure to WSB.

Might watch the first few laps again later...

He's riding better than he ever has done, it's great to see. Shame he didn't win it last year though cos that was the only chance anyone will have to win the title for the next 5 years

Yes, a shame for the punters that Stoner buggered off.

When Marquez turned up I reckon Stoner would've upped his game and the next couple of years everyone else would've been riding for 3rd place.
