Thanks for that Pete, I like a little eye candy in the morning (that 1199 in the background if course).

Pervert.

Meh, media trawling for news on a slow day/ off session.

And seriously!!! Jorge Lorenzo getting the FIM award for Personality of the Year?!?!?!?! Come on now, this is the dude who was compared to a metronome!! He has no personality.

(Sorry, just now getting around to watching The Off Season Show.)

There are those who want to remember #27 for his acerbic manner - and those who want to remember him for his riding prowess.

"Rossi conveniently leaves out any mention of the past 24 months, where, essentially, Stoner upended Rossi and used his head to mop the floor of every racetrack on the schedule."

Great pic Bill and probably all those marks on the paint are his then

Holy crap! That is an impressive shot. The "Ax Murdurer" sure did add quite a bit to the spectical of MotoGP.

And to think he threw a 2 year old tanty when Rossi roosted him at Laguna, haha.

Thanks for the new screensaver, great shot...dayum that boy could ride!

I remembered that I had found a picture of Rossi on the Duc this past Feb (winter testing) at that same turn at Sepang. I like how it shows that they are both pointed in more or less the same direction, but one is far closer to the curbing than the other. (And yes, the picture of Rossi was taken a little bit earlier in the corner, but I think everyone will agree that he wasn't getting both ends onto the curbing.)

Must be photo shop. I've never seen him get the Ducati sideways in two years of trying!

I have! This year at Leguna Seca at the top of the corkscrew. He had it completely sideways with so much lean angle that he was grinding hard parts...........................................co urse he was a couple of yards away from the bike, sliding along on his ass. Would crashing count?

Yeah how many times did Rossi chuck the Ducati down the road? Didn't they used to call Stoner a crasher? Goes to show eh...until you know what he was up against...

Hmm, I seem to remember sticking up for Stoner in a previous post saying how his reasoning for being angry at Valentino for that Laguna pass was because he passed him on the other side of the white line which is exactly where he is in this shot.
