MotoGP 2014

On the basis of nothing ventured nothing gained, I asked Alex Briggs if Jeremy Burgess was writing a book. Hoping that in the event the idea hadn't occurred to JB, a seed may be planted. Of course I wasn't even confident I'd get an answer.
"Not right away, he may but then again he may not. Never know with JB. He’s happy at the moment and taken up golf!"

Bloody hot in Adelaide at the mo, the Fairways will be dry as a bastard.
He'll be hitting it 300 though !

Or...not! We all know it's Stoner.

Lol. Just like someone said "You take the bait so easily" or something along those lines!

Bollocks Pete. He has got the mechanical appreciation of an elephant. If he was good he would have made that bike work for everyone.

Relax folks. That was just to get Oscar out of his trash can! But Robert...I disagree. Seems MM likes it! And HRC seem very keen to keep him on as a tester?

Stoner was third on the bike rossi took over

Meh.

Did it not occur to you that Dovi, having ridden that POS for a year is also saying something about his own development skills?
Glass houses etc...


Which also applies to you, Mrs Casey, given your usual shrill defense of your husband.

some people can ride a bike with square wheels ie Jason Mc cewan, And CS could do obviously do that well also.









Personally I still think Rossi is the better all rider, but we all have our own opinions on life

Robert, tell me why a top lever racer that can and did, beat the best again and again on a bike no one else can ride, would develop the bike so others can win on it?, by implication you would also be including Rossi as having "the mechanical appreciation of an elephant".

Rossi could not ride his way out of a wet paper bag on it and had a couple of years to sort it. The haters will continue to hate.......

Meh. Well Mrs Rossi...it appears your sense of humour is about as good as Rossi's loyalty. Do you SERIOUSLY think they'd listen to Dovi over Rossi? Ask yourself.

As said, haters gotta hate.

Who's gonna get you hard when Vale retires?

Despite the stats blatantly showing Stoner is a faster/better racer than Rossi (Rossi fans love stats...the fav being the old 9 titles trick), they'll never be man enough to admit it. Because Rossi was just so...so...so god damn gayly flamboyant! And if anyone dare to suggest Rossi was actually over rated as a development rider...especially as they've taken great delight over the years in claiming Stoner to be so...look out! Now here's one for ya. HRC still want Stoner to stay on as more than likely...THE test rider. Do you think Yamaha will do the same with Rossi when he retires? Maybe Ducati will? My guess is...nah.
