    Carmelo Ezpeleta - He even looks scary.

    Actually, since I got old I probably look even scarier than him, but he's right up there. 'Specially when BIKE did full page B & W picture of him with red eyeballs...

    Ummm
    Rossi
    Stoner
    Dovisioso (if Puig doesn't manage to sink him somehow)

    I don't posses a sufficiently colourful vocabulary to answer this guy! - where's Crasher when you need him?

    Overall, I expect a titanic battle between Rossi & Stoner, with Dovisioso and Lorenzo fighting for the podium and surprises along the way.

    Right here mate! The guy's talking plop. Stoner is a hard ass and will come back swinging.

    1: Stoner

    2: Rossi

    3: Dovi

    Pah. It's not just the SV mate. I can and more often do tip everything over sooner or later.

    here we go again! I have no idea how wrong I was on this question last year.
    2009
    1-Rossi(speed of the Yam and heart of the rider)
    2-Stoner ('cos his wrist will be his (to mix metaphors) Achilles heel-just reminds me so much of Schwantz and his demise)
    3(eq)-Hayden/Pedrosa/Lorenzo/Dovi/Elias (how's that for hedging the bet?)

    Cheers
    Barry

    Meh.........Plop eh? Who cried all last year when he was beaten when his bike was demonstrably faster. He is weak mentally or he would just ride and let his actions speak for him. He is a clone of Gibernau and Biaggi, both of whom couldn't stand the heat in the kitchen. Perhaps Stoner should take his Mommy with him on tour.
    Caution is not a substitute for skill :no

    I've just read Foggy's autobiography. They're all really lucky he isn't racing anymore, 'cause he would be home in time for dinner before they crossed the finished line. I had no idea how truly awesome he is

    Follow a bit of road racing do ya mate? Dunno how many times it's been said...but haven't you noticed that no-one other than Stoner so far has had the skill/balls to ride the 800cc Ducati fast?

    A clone of Gibernau and Biaggi?? Fuck that's funny...I can't for the life of me remember them beating Rossi for a Moto GP title?

    Perhaps you should ask your mummy for some history lessons.

    Haha - I didn't know Foggy could write!
    He's a classic example of how the most talented sportsmen can be absolute cocks.

    Yeah, he spat the dummy, and carried it on too long for me as well. He lost favour with me after that.

    A clone of Biaggi and Gibernau though? Hahahaha........

    Im not a Stoner fan, but the man has some serious skill, and anyone who says otherwise is a fool. Look at Melandri, while not 100% on top of his game, is still a seriously fast rider, and look where he was sitting on the Duc.

    Too right.
    Could Bridgestone be added in there somewhere?

    Riders:
    Rossi
    Stoner
    Dovisiosososo

    I want Nicky to be in there so bad but I think he'll struggle with the GP9 (though not like his predecessor on the gp8)until at least half season. No Super Moto in the holidays this time boyeee!

    So you think you'd do better riding the wildest 800cc MotoGP bike with a damaged wrist? Even Vale had we cry in 07, racers that aren't winning aren't happy and you generally hear about it.
    NO ONE was going to beat Rossi to the title last year, if Laguna Seca didn't prove that go and watch that race again.

    And soooooooo, Marco could be riding a 'Non Green' Kawasaki in a team run by Dorna, I hope he can get back in the top ten consistantly this year but a podium I think not.
