You aint got nothin' then.. so..

Shut.. up..

( Is it the monkey on your back, S? Is he climbing up your arse, like a hand in a sock-puppet? Scrape 'im off.. do it.. get "angry" L.O.L...)

You need to get "some" or up your meds....a lot.

Yes sometimes look at all the Spanish riders that benefited from being Spanish when that was where the sponsorship money was.

Oh yeah, Repsol money is one thing - they needed to sell that product.
An investment company (where the money is not necessarily coming from the UK), needs to get a decent return on investment and that doesn't include tinkering with the product.



By his logic you'd only see Saudi players in the English Premier League.

Time to wake up & get with C21 fella!

Look what Lewis Hamilton has done..

Even Kanye West is puttin' ( & nevermind bloody Putin!) his hand up to be a future Prez o' da fee world..

You need to take a breath.

You need to take a breath.

(oops.. that aint gayin' up the thread - is it..)

It wasn't only repsol
Plus plenty of Aussies got a break with the fag money.
It depends on where the money is actually coming from. where they want to be seen in a positive light
Same as F1.
Remember some riders bring their own sponsorship too.

Also last time I looked finance is a product.

Yeah but the investors (in the company that invests in Dorna) are NOT sponsors.
They want a return on their investment, not advertising, so it wouldn't matter to them who was actually riding the bikes, as long as Dorna was financially successful.

Oh yes it does.
They want to make it popular in some countries more than others ie countries where they get revenue from TV rights etc.
Think Rugby why SA has so much clout.
Think cricket why India also has so much say in how stuff is done where and when games are played.
Need I mention Soccer or the Olympic committee.

Can't be too harsh on Jack Miller, he's the only Kiwi racing in MotoGP at the moment

[mr bucketracer]

Are you having your period J.A.W?

hes one of us we all talk crap

Miller doesn't make a lunge from miles back. He catches up at the same rate as the tech3 bike just behind him. Miller simply didn't prepare for the two bikes in front of him to be bloody parked in the turn. I don't think he should have been penalised for it. Racing incident I think, nothing more.

I guess the day had to come drew.--I agree with you 100%
My suggestion if you want to see what happened is to roll back 1 lap and watch that corner then roll forward to the incident and see the difference.

I think they are trying to cool Miller a bit, they probably should have given him a point last time he mucked up (can't remember what race it was) which is what he himself said.

Either way, bloody good showing until the cock up, give him Reddings Honda I say...

Hey guys the more often I look at the JM CC crash the more I see 2 riders that seemed to slow in a dramatic manner in front of a chasing group.
The comment that JM was going "way too fast" Im just not convinced.
it looked to me that if that was in fact the case then he would have been hauling away from the following two riders and he wasn't

You are correct? Kind of! Yes the guys in front slowed up big time, but they slowed up perfectly, where as JM did not read what those riders were doing write, he was just focused on his own job, meaning he forgot to take into account other riders may do something different, which all are entitled to do ( Unless dangerous) So it was really just his youth fullness and enthusiasm that caused this racing incident
