    So?

    If you are trying to claim that the whole Moto GP "show" ( Caramello's term) does not take precedence over facts..
    ..then you aint been watching either.. the Emperor has been parading naked for bloody years now..

    Ol' Caramello has final say over that, huh..

    I prefer to use my eyes & review, properly, the bloody video evidence..
    & maybe its your eyes that've gone myopic from your "keyboard hero" antics?
    When you say "keyboard hero" are you referring to dickheads who bag the commentators and race direction coz they have their own theory?

    It also includes Loris Caparossi and Franco Uncini who know a thing or two about scooter racing.

    No, just "dickheads" who add zero to the discussion.. ( I only quoted "keyboard hero" as prevously used..)

    & if you rate those blind as, bozo-clown commentators.. well.. you're likely on a level with them cognitive functionality-wise..

    Why don't you have a bloody look at the video, since even 'Blind Freddy' could see what went down..

    Wasn't ol' Franco knocked sensless by Wayne Gardner - a few decades back?

    More QUOTES and FACTS for some who have decided to come on here and be a rude bugger

    At first glance of the footage it looked as Miller went in ludicrously late, but if studied more carefully it actually looks more like Jorge Lorenzo was entering the corner so excruciatingly slowly that Crutchlow was forced to slow to avoid contact with Lorenzo. It also appears that Miller looks likely to have made the corner successfully. However, it is the passing rider’s duty of care to pass safely. But, I think in Miller’s defence, Lorenzo entering the corner on tenterhooks was the initial trigger to what unfolded. Either way, as the most junior rider in the series, Miller is always going to made to suck eggs and apologise when anything like this happens.

    Jack Miller – DNF – “I’m happy with the weekend, but of course not happy with the result of the race. I want to say a big sorry to Cal for taking him out, but we were both pushing hard. I didn’t actually mean to overtake him, I was just trying to hold Espargaro off on the brakes and accidently went too deep and touched him. It was an accident, but all in all it was a good weekend as we found some settings with the bike we became more comfortable with and I’m looking forward to Misano. Misano is a good track for me, I like it a lot. It will be a new surface this year so I look forward to seeing what the grip level is like as last year was quite low, but it should be interesting.

    L.O.L. "Rude bugger"..

    ..then Shaun, more-or-less concedes that yeah, what I'd reckoned, did in fact, pretty much go down..

    Ok, fair enough.. "sucks eggs & apologises" too.. righto..

    ( Jacko was in front, & on the inside, when he was collected.. - I aint saying it was deliberate, but thats what happened).

    It used to be Simmo's gig to get bagged for doing this stuff, ( 'til V.R. knocked his block off, poor bastard)..

    Well if nothing else this discussion could give me an excuse to watch the race again. Need an excuse, don't want to come across as OCD you understand.

    Haha Please do. You have the link to watch again

    Quote from MM

    In the race I felt good and I was trying to follow Valentino and I was able to do it,” he explained. “In some parts I was faster but in other points I had the character of the bike, that floating feeling in the rear, that we had at the beginning of the season.

    “In rain I had that feeling which was difficult to manage during the race. I tried to manage it but in the end when I was behind Valentino I arrived at the end of the straight,




    I braked and lost the rear, the rear was locked. Just as I tried to save the crash I was already flying.”
