I reckon MM will be at the next round come hell or high water

There is now a bit more detail available.

Some people seem to think that with a thirty point lead over MM after only three races that the championship is Rossi's to lose. There is one such comment following that article. Three races in to the season would seem to be a bit early to be making any predictions, there's a long way to go.

In case anyone is having a slow Sunday; now for something completely different: a ride on the M1.

Hi, looking for a bit of advice from anyone that has been to Misano and Aragon.
Mate and I are doing an European trip and are planning on taking in both of these GPs.
Any advice on best viewing areas/grandstands/where to stay would be appreciated.
The last time I was at Misano Crosby was racing so I'm picking it may have changed somewhat.
cheers

Nice, enjoy. This year there is the possibility that the championship might still be open at that stage.

Surgeon and patient pose for the camera.

If you've got a seamless gearbox does the left hand do that much anyway?

Lot of changes of direction where you'll be pushing on them thar bars mate.

Some of the riders hold on to the end of the grip with their pinky actually off the bar, apparently Marquez is, or at least was, not one such. That may change? Ah well, he has four days to recover, and then there is the Clinica Mobile.

There is an interview with the surgeon on the MotoGP website. "He won't be 100% fit but (snip) I'm sure he will be able to do well."

The surgeon also says the injury happened when another bike ran over Marquez' finger.

Yeah but anyone that's had a nasty hand/finger injury will tell you the whole hand hurts to even use it

Oh yeah, as a former wicket keeper, goalie and current clumsy motorcyclist, I can tell finger injuries hurt like a motherfucker..

Fuck yeah! I bet as a wicket keeper you got some well nasty ones! Bashing my hands/fingers into trees and peoples faces as a yoof certainly taught me how painful such injuries are.

Yeah the diagonal spiral fracture of the thumb was dosey.
Fortunately the invention of bushbars saved more pain - I remember having to pull a half inch splinter out of thefirst joint of my stink finger. The relief when it came out was orgasmic...

Had pins put into 3 of my finger bones on my left hand, ( Fukin car drivers in my road riding days) and it hurts like fuk, but a top 10 will still be reasonably easy for his talent
