So I heard. Which seems a bit odd in that he rides the thing better than Valentino. But then Rossi sells more T-shirts and bikes, though quite why anyone would buy a bike that he can only finish about 8th on, I have no idea. Hayden seems a little miffed that now that the thing is finally improving, he won't be allowed to have a go on the the new version next year. I can see that I might be miffed in that situation. And it's hard to say that he's not doing his best, whereas with Rossi - seeing as he is supposed to be the superior rider - you sort of wonder. I like Nicky. He seems a really genuine, smiling sort of bloke.
Weird.... Lorenzo has made the point that VR is welcome back to the factory team and he would like to continue the battle :wink:
Amazing last jab by Casey in qualifying, he's a sulky git, but when Honda get it right for him he sure can deliver, he was amazing to watch, just totally on fire, shame he's going to be honest EDIT: no predictions for tomorrow but if i was pushed for this race in particular... Lorenzo Spies Stoner Wet or dry.
Thats really playing cards close to chest! Anyway, race is starting on Sky now ... its gonna be good.
Oh well. Good ride from Casey for sure, but had the accident not happened we all know it might well be very different. I normally enjoy Assen very much, but that was pretty boring to be honest. Haven't checked the points title lead just yet, but off the top of my head, Stoner and Lorenzo must be about equal again? I'll consider it a fresh start between these two greats for the rest of the season.
In comparison to the MOTO2/3 races that was Shocking! Nicky top ducati but 31+ seconds back on the leader. The less said about rossi the better There is definitly something wrong for ALL the ducati's to be that far back, or is it everyone else has the better bike? Not taking anything from casey he rode a good race, just wish lorenzo was in the mix. On the whole pretty disapointing
it was dull watch . moto2 and 3 were so much better , poor Cal his luck been shit he would have been 3rd
Rossi has applied for a job at Kwik-Fit.............. What joke, an absolute joke. He has no interest in even riding it. Time to clear out the garage of the has beens and leave it to Hayden, Barbera and and the bloke who's dad buys his bikes.
Gulp! There was me saying to a mate during the race he's come in rather than be beaten by other Ducatis
They will come mate Whoever thinks a 9 x world champ is a quitter need's their head looking at :wink:
Better to be a quitter than riding round on a shitter. :biggrin: Brilliant see what i did done there.:tongue:
