What a f**king joke that was, Bridgestone ruined that GP, I was so glad I stayed at home that year. All three protagonists have won there, but Dani might spoil the party again. Jorgegay is/has run out of races, he must win and Rossi needs to DNF, so the bookies are rubbing their hands together already. The Island always throws up weather, normally windy, cold, sunny, hot, rain and sometimes nice, so Rossi always bitches about it, seagulls like Jorgegays fingers. Craig
Danny has shown some real balls the last few races. I'm wondering if he's under a voodoo spell. That can be the only answer to what a guy of his age suddenly has more aggression than when he was 5 years younger...
Yo Airpuck 1. Marquez 2. ? 3. ? Weather and grip conditions mean some outliers filling up the podium. I think we'll see some high profile crashers and maybe an Iannone or Crotchlow well up in the standings. Marc for the win as he'll be looking to make up for a lean period and getting beaten by the imp.
If it's dry and good weather, Jorgegay will win, otherwise throw the balls in the air and see what rolls out. Marc & Flossi are not fast enough, but other factors may f things up for Jorgegay. Craig
Good viewpoints guys. I'm sticking with Vale for the win. Yeah he's a smart cookie right enough and knows the long game better than anyone. However he's also a hero, and fast at PI, so he'll go for the win if it's at all possible. Don't see Dani maintaining it. Think JLo is too stressed and will screw up. Ducatis should be entertaining now though.
Of course Rossi wants to win, but he wants the title more. He knows he doesn't have to win. He doesn't even have to beat Jorge. All he has to do is finish immediately behind him for the final 3 races and he will be the Man. So I think this will influence his strategy in the do-or-die moments. On the other hand, Jorge has to beat him every time, and do his best to win everything. That will influence his strategy in the do-or-die moments. The wide-mouthed frog will just continue to win or bin - it's the only thing he knows and he has nothing to lose. So the most motivated to win is Lorenzo so I think he'll do it. Rossi will pressurise Marc into another bin, probably - caused by seagull or a gust of wind. Pedders, not having the advantage of being the only bloke with any tyres left this time, will come in 4th. Anything else you want to know while I'm in the temple of the oracle?
Wide mouth frog immediately makes me think of the ITV weather women Huge mouth, enormous in fact. Bet she'd win at this.....
