    Yeah, just wait until Vale's sorted it out, eh.

    Cal's just doing what everyone else coming off contract this year is doing — playing the game. Silly season is shaping up to be mighty intriguing...

    lol. I'd like to see him on the Honda. But maybe he's a bit too much of a naughty boy for HRC's image?

    When I started commercial fishing the ropes mauled my baby soft hands & the Skipper told me to piss on them, not wanting to argue with him I did as I was told. Seemed to work or at the very least it distracted me from the problem while the hands toughened up.

    Funny thing is Stoner doesn't look like a tough fucker, but all these stories about him, his mental attitude and his background dirt track racing sure says he is one tough guy

    I think they're all tough as fuck at that level Merv. Both mentally and physically. There's no way they can keep taking the knocks they do and come back for more otherwise.

    Yeah that deal was signed up a year or so ago. What a waste of a Moto GP seat. I mean really...you're gonna ditch Dovi or Crutchlow for Smith?

    It could end up like car racing whoever brings the biggest sponsorship cash gets the number 2 ride, so how long till we see an Arab or Indian or Chinese Motogp racer.

    so tell me who should be in MotoGP and a potential race winner that isn't there because they didn't have money to buy a seat? As for the the CRT riders at the lower end, the options would be great rider with money battling for low number points OR great rider with no money... bloody obvious who the team owner would choose...

    The only potential race winners the Aliens. If you talking about winning the CRT 'race', possibly Melandri, maybe even Max. But I reckon Max could probably bring the funds with him anyway. But as you know, I don't see things as you do. Not saying I know how to fix it...but they're bit by bit fucking the class, so perhaps they don't know either. Aprilia don't want to know about Moto GP because they keep fucking with the rules.
