Apparently if you stop acting like a twat when you're struggling and actually speak with your crew calmly it helps everyone do their job better.

That's a good blog because it takes a big man to admit their behaviour has been crap. Good on Bradley because he will (read: already has) find his crew responds well to a more measured approach.
It can't help when their rider comes in, steam pouring from the helmet vents, and gives everyone a serve with "F words" when all they're trying to do is get a good set up.
That blog will be one worth watching because it seems like he is prepared to put real information in there, not the more usual homolgated pap we get.
Nice one Bradley.

Fantastic read. Is he the English version of Jack Miller, a guy people can actually relate to?That's a good blog because it takes a big man to admit their behaviour has been crap. Good on Bradley because he will (read: already has) find his crew responds well to a more measured approach.

Finishing ahead of Pol must be really great for his confidence!

What sort of people can relate to Jack Miller?!
The guy's an unpleasant oaf.

I thought this was going to be a Ducati quote from after Stoner left because that's what they said. We shouldn't be too hard on Smith he was a ginja before he went skinhead. Somebody should have a word with him about giving his mum his laundry?

I didn't see his allegedly petulant performance at the end of last season but as mentioned previously I sympathise with his viewpoint. He can be an amusing young guy, and he has the potential to be very fast. We shouldn't expect too much in the way of couth and culture though, he was brought up in Australia after all.

I like the kid.
He may be a bit of a dick but he's a breath of fresh air from the monotony of clean cut, super serious European riders. Wether you like him or not you can't deny he is entertaining, at least in his moto3 races.
Never, never give in.
Yes, I have a bit of time for him. I am prepared to cut him some slack for his PI cringe performance last year and am trusting he has learnt from that. (I am sure his mentors have drawn attention to it.) Passion is what is required from any sportsman and Miller has that.
It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

It would be easy to hate on Miller, I have done in the past, but the thing to remember is that he is still pretty young.
A crazy thing about GP racing for me is that a lot of great riders starting so young, and are on camera from like 15 years old onward. You see a huge amount of change in them from the way they look to the way they talk to the way they race.
Marquez, Rossi, Lorenzo, Dovisioso, or just about anyone in 125s through 250s, it's a lot of time for a person to grow up in a pretty critical stage in their lifetime. You spend just about your whole life, in particular your teenage years, living a life where competition and winning come #1. That would be enough to make anyone a little socially and professionally maladjusted.
Plus Miller rips some spec-f**king- tacular wheelies.

I grew up in Hamilton, such things are an asset.
The tragic ones are the likes of Scott Redding who grew taller and taller before our eyes, guys a spectacular talent but his size will always let him down against the wee Spaniards.
Miller sure does do a great wheelie. I love his passion, reminds me of Rossi who just loves to be out there racing motorbikes.

Marquez has injured his left hand while training on the dirt. An X Ray showed a fractured and displaced bone in the little finger of his left hand. A titanium plate has been inserted. His competing at Jerez has not been ruled out - or ruled in.
Casey might be staying near a phone just in case there is no Marqez and no Pedrosa?
If you've got a seamless gearbox does the left hand do that much anyway?

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