    Hard, but given that it all seemed ummm consensual? Entertaining.

    I wholeheartedly agree mate. But a sensor could've been easily damaged during the contact.

    Yeah, when Jorge's bike hit MMs shoulder I thought, "Shit! Lucky that didn't break his sensor."

    I know right! Imagine if when riding into the side of MM, MM's right handle bar smashed the front wheel speed sensor off Lorenzo's bike and he lost his TC and crashed?! I mean...stranger things have happened right? How close do you reckon MM's handle bar is to the goods on the front of Lorenzo's bike? Fucking dangerous eh? Here's a wee screen grab for ya. I've watched this around ten times now...and Lorenzo hit him with more force than MM collecting the back of Pedro. I think Lorenzo should be fined a point. Not. But you get my point eh?

    Actually, last night my Internet coverage was crap. Missing laps, jumping back several laps, two pictures at once. That is the only time it has been like that.

    To check I hadn't missed anything I watched it again today. Perfect.

    Hope it's like that next w/e...

    Was awesome. I think Lorenzo is riding his ass off but the Honda bike and riders package is just better at the moment. It's fascinating watching JLo setting up the nice sweeping lines only for the Hondas to arrow in underneath him, turn and fuck off.

    Did you see Dovi's interview? One depressed mofo.

    Yeah I reckon. And nah. I hate seeing grown men cry. Crutchlow is by now...no doubt shitting himself.

    I see he is preparing himself. His excuse book would be a loose leaf folder so he can add to it. (too soon ?? )

    Nah, the Honey Badger has made the perfect career move.
    From being the best satellite bike rider, taking the factory ride on the Ducati, that goes backwards, maybe the odd podium here or there.
    Two years later he will get the Factory Yamaha ride.
    The precedent has been set.
