Umm considering there was a photo of him and Dr Mir post op, Dani complete with plaster cast on his wrist and forearm?

He's a tough mofo so I'm hoping like heck he can get out there with some pain meds, then put it up the inside of Zarco really late in a corner to teach the arsehole a lesson.

For you mate.

Interesting. There's Pedro arse up and airborne - and they describe that as a "close call"?

Fuck that angle is the best view of how that dirty french fuck was never going to make that corner, cunt is nearly upright as he entered. And they penalised MM and not him?
Lucky he didn't end Pedrosa's career right then and there. And his comment about how he thought he was faster than Dani so did a rough overtake when Dani was faster than him in almost all sessions. Rossi says MM doesn't respect the other riders but I think they have someone a bit worse among them these days.

Wanker.

But glad Dani is racing this weekend, though on such a physical track how well he will do remains to be seen.

Bring on the racing I say.

Edit: I also can't see how they say "Almost touched" looks like Zarco's knee hits Dani which caused him to try and prevent them both crashing, shame he didn't do a Rossi and try and stick with it so the dirty little snail eater went down with him.

The Lorenzo talk seems to have motivated Iannone. Funny that.

[pritch]

Wow! I just saw the result. Not many would have picked that - and it probably cheered Lorenzo up no end.

Where is Simon? Who is Amy?

is Amy the little chick that does the pit walk for BSB ??????

Simon might be taking classes

Amy Dargan, seated to the right here.

They said it was a logistical issue for Crafar, hence Amy filling in.

I can't remember the exact quote but you'll get the drift. Jack Miller was asked what it felt like sitting alone on the grid. His reply was to the effect that it felt like he had farted and everyone had left.

The PR people haven't totally sanitised everyone yet.

Thought it was interesting when the riders were asked about Randy Mamola being inducted into the hall of fame. Most of the riders said they welcomed it. Zarco said it undermined the others who had been inducted who had actually won premier class championships.

Gotta love the French

Yeah. Doubt he'll win too many new fans with that comment.

[Dadpole]

I confess that the same thought crossed my mind when the Mamola news broke. It was when I recalled the things he had done other than race in GPs that I realised that winning a title is not the only measure needed. Imagine Danni Pedrosa being regarded as a loser because of no MotoGP title?

Yep. And that Aaron Slight isn't a total legend!

Totally agree, his contribution to the (epic) sport of Motogp is outstanding.

If winning was the parameter, we would just have a list of championship titles.

The pillion seater Mamola used to scare the crap out of people, was that a Cagiva?

Please don't judge me but I would be ok with getting that close to a man from behind for that experience.
