    Man Sky are rubbish.

    They put Supermotard on instead of Moto2.

    La mantequilla y el martillo were on full display today. That ankle of Crutchlow's has got to be hurting though — what a ride by him! Tough, tough cookie.

    And in Silly Season news, my guess has already gone by the wayside:

    Rookie Rule to be dropped.

    Looks to me like Lorenzo has wound it up a notch eh. Regardless of what Stoner is doing/thinking...doubt he'd have an answer for Lorenzo at the mo. No one has. Be his title to lose shortly.

    He's just relentlessly ratcheting up the pressure isn't he? Still one DNF and they're back together.

    Really dissapointed for Dovi. Podium was there for the taking today... maybe even a challenge for the top step?

    Both Tech III boys were quicker than Spies again today and that's with a podium dangling in front of him and sitting on the best bike in the paddock. Hats off to Crutchlow... last to sixth with a broken and dislocated ankle!

    Well done Bautista.

    Ducati............................................ ..

    Yamaha would've needed a kick in the collective nuts if they let him get away. Now that Stoner is no longer the must have rider in the paddock Lorenzo is it.
    Zen wisdom: No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously. - obviously had KB in mind when he came up with that gem

    If he does win it this year it'll sum things up pretty fairly I reckon. Since 2006, two titles each to Rossi, Stoner and Lorenzo. Three legends of the sport.

    i havent writtne of Stoner yet.He has a very good crew i am sure they can get some wins in and with dovi cal,and now bautita ,ot to mention spies and hayden A bad day can have you way of the front.Jlo had a big moment so he was pushin hard.I reckon when conditions are warmer and the Honda can go back onto the harder tyres we will see some more CS magic

    James Ellison (I think it was) was quoted in recent Brit magazine (earlier in year) saying that the season would be interesting as basically the first 1/2 was mostly Lorenzo land and the 2nd 1/2 were more Stoner tracks. So the season may not be over yet folks...
    "...New Zealanders, for all their faults, have virtues that are precious: an unwillingness to be intimidated by the new, the formidable, or class systems; trust in situations where there would otherwise be none; compassion for the underdog; a sense of responsibility for people in difficulty; not undertaking to do something without seeing it through - "

    Good race some intense passing there for a while

    Spies seems to be getting it back at least he's in front for a few laps now? better than the first few races.

    Yeh ythat was a good ride last to sixth, home crowd, he might be puting himself up for a factory ride at this rate?

    From the comments after they simply cant get the Honda to like the new tyres.
    Where they seem to suit Lorenzo?

    I like it better when the sums are done from say, 2001 !!! LOL


    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..
