SPOILER - P*SSY Little Aussie Runt !!

Whats that RED BLUR in the back ground ???



NO HARD FEELINGS



PIC OF THE DAY

[tomr6]

Each to their own folks. I've been a biker all my life and hopefully always will. It really shocks me off to hear about people cheering when riders come off. Do you wait to see if they are ok first or just let rip and see what happens?

I am really intrigued to know.

Perhaps I dont get it because I played a lot of sport and was fiercly competitive and hated losing. Ever! 15 minutes afterwards i would be ok but immediately afterwards I was a tw@.

As for Rossi! He is a fantastic racer but what happened him when he folded under the pressure and binned it in Valencia? Didnt see him for a while did we? Its only human to react to dissappointment in some way. The fact is that none of us on this forum will ever compete in that arena and yet we feel the need to express hatred for someone who has the skill bottle talent and balls to put his life on the line for our entertainment.

What everyone here fails to have noticed was Rossi and Casey having a laugh and shaking each others hand on the podium. But then it wouldnt be the British thing if we didnt have a moan about possibly one of the best races of the past couple of years.

Maybe I'm wasting my time here as it sounds like the Rossi fan club but come on guys. Do you really celebrate when a bike racer falls off? Thats kinda sad in my opinion. Bring on the 5hit! I can answer back. But I will never ever cheer or celebrate when a biker falls off. Ever!

[thelastsuperpower]

yeah that was a really entertaining race,there were some great battles all throughout the pack and the rossi-stoner battle was awesome.Thats the kind of racing that makes you wanna go put your leathers on and grab your bike keys,even at 11pm



Shame about toseland tho (seem to be hearing that a lot lately ).

[Funky]

Does anyone have a link to this rant? I want to see the little sh!t boo hooing.

[Bladerunner]

What a great race, I was on the edge of the sofa shouting at the telly at some points, neighbours probably thought the wife and I were having a right barney!!

I'm a huge Rossi fan, but I was dissapointed when Stoner fell off, the racing was amazing and I was looking forward to the last lap, but ho hum.

I figure Stoners rant was probably down to dissapointment, and he was big enough to admit that it was his fault he crashed, but he really let himself down bitching about it and refusing to shake Rossi's hand on international TV, made himself look like a proper twat. At the end of the day did he think Rossi was just going to give in? I think he should have a word with Gibernau, might pick up some good advice about not [Censored] with Rossi

Finally I'd just like to say that normally I'd agree with the comments about not cheering when someone crashes, but I just couldn't help it when Pedrosa crashed at Sachenring, I really don't want that miserable little twat to win, I've seen dog shit with more personality Wouldn't wish for him to get hurt though.............

that sums it up for me, if i cheer when stoner comes off it's because i dont want him to win not because i wish to see him get injured. If it's a low side into the kitty litter then im going to cheer, but if it some massive high side and it looks like he might actually get hurt im not going to cheer. I think he's a good rider and good for motogp as a whole reguardless of how he conducts himself off the track.

It was an awesome race..and all the better because rossi won

[Mike Daytona600]

Right here we go.

I'm a Stoner fan. Don't know why but I think it's becasue when he came into MotoGP he was the closest thing we had to a Brit at the top. Also cos he keeps kicking Rossi's arse. He was brill last year and is coming back on form this year.

I did think his thing with Rossi in the interveiw on the BBC (see it is better than Eurosport) was a bit cringworthy and at one point thought they were gonna have a fight. He should have saved that for off screen. Tom Cruise had to calm him down. As to wether Stoner was right or not I don't know.

To all the Rossi fans saying he is a spoilt brat well maybe but he's still very young. Even so though he hasn't said to Ducati get better or he'll leave. He hasn't told Dorna to make as single tyre rule or he'll leave MotoGP. He hasn't demanded a different tyre to the rest of the Ducatis, or he'd have left. Sounds like a bit of a diva to me, JLo's less demanding.

People don't like him because he beats and isn't intimidated by Rossi. If it was down to personality then you'd be giving Padrosa more flak, he has a job to lift a smile when he wins.

Having said all that Rossi is a racing god and one hell of a showman.
As for the race... one of the best since Baylis Edwards and Hodgeson in the last race of the WSB in 2002.

[TLS-Moose]

He's Australian - where does that qualify him as English

He is coming back on to form this year - no, the engineers have given him a better bike which he is able to use to his advantage ... his (personal) ability is no more or less than it was at the start of the year other than some track miles to scrub off the winter blues

He's young and just 6yrs his senior Rossi is old at 28

Get better or leave - he's only been there a nano second, 'til now has he had the power to say that

Single tyre rule - when was that brought in

Demanding a different tyre / Diva-ish behaviour ... questionable, but as a person widely acknowledged as the "Schumacher" of his era, with the victories and personal fanbase behind he has, he has an amout of clout that no other rider has to demand what he wants (or thinks he can get away with) ..... and a fair bit of it is "gamesmanship" as much as anything, He has always liked to get inside his opponents head

Isn't intimidated by Rossi - yet on a package clearly the best part of a second a lap quicker he couldn't get past and pull away, then got so frustrated he went in too hot (by his own admission) and crashed Personality wise, he is definitely not as bad as Pedrosa, but thee again he aint no Rossi either is he

[deej]

I was truly sad to see him go down - I was really looking foward to the last few laps It would have been great for either of them to have won "fair and square" ....... but it was possibly the best race of the season so far

i kinda cheered that he'd made a mistake then when he crashed i thought oh crap thats the end of this race,was really looking forward to the last couple of laps as it would have made it the best race for a long time. 2 riders on top of their game and so far in front of everyone else that stoner could make a mistake,crash.lift his bike back up and still have 10secs+ on 3rd place. a sorry end to a fantastic race,was suprised that stoner couldnt make a pass and then break away but fair play top rossi for making that yamaha as wide as possible and hanging on in there.
and as for lorenzo,well how high does that lad need to go

mike,i completely 100% disagree with you on the bbc, as i was up early monday i watched it in bed on bbc2 for the first time, what a crock of shit those commentators are. at one stage charlie cox said james HAYDON was riding the zx-rr,the lack of knowledge in the bbc team is poor,very poor compared to eurosport. who the hell was the pitlane reporter as well,not a patch on mamola

[Tom L]

i know he's not exactly a motogp guru but surely he wouldnt make a mistake that rookie? I'd rather have an entertaining commentator that some bike nerd telling me how Hondas 76 mm fork stanchion allows from 0.6 less wind resistance blah zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Eurosport blows.

[Mike Daytona600]

He's Australian - where does that qualify him as English

I said closestthing to a Brit. The Assies have got the Union Flag in the corner of theirs and 'Stoner' isn't exactly a Spanish sirname is it?

He is coming back on to form this year - no, the engineers have given him a better bike which he is able to use to his advantage ... his (personal) ability is no more or less than it was at the start of the year other than some track miles to scrub off the winter blues

Ah yes that's right, Rossi does well it's cos he's s good, Stoner does well it's cos of his machine, Rossi does crap it's down to his machine, Stoner does crap it's down to him

He's young and just 6yrs his senior Rossi is old at 28

6 years is a long time at that age (but you probably can't remember Moosey ) and 6 years is a long time in sport. I'm 29. Got married 6 years ago (anaversary on Sunday ) and am now a Dad. I'm not the maturist person in the world but am loads different to what I was 6 years ago, especialy when it comes to going off on one.

Get better or leave - he's only been there a nano second, 'til now has he had the power to say that

That was my exaple of Rossi being spoilt.

Single tyre rule - when was that brought in

There was talk of it last year but then Rossi got Bridgestones and it went away

Demanding a different tyre / Diva-ish behaviour ... questionable, but as a person widely acknowledged as the "Schumacher" of his era, with the victories and personal fanbase behind he has, he has an amout of clout that no other rider has to demand what he wants (or thinks he can get away with) ..... and a fair bit of it is "gamesmanship" as much as anything, He has always liked to get inside his opponents head

Yeh fair play if you can, but for people to then say that Stoner is spoilt seems a bit hypicritical of Rossi fans.

Isn't intimidated by Rossi - yet on a package clearly the best part of a second a lap quicker he couldn't get past and pull away, then got so frustrated he went in too hot (by his own admission) and crashed Personality wise, he is definitely not as bad as Pedrosa, but thee again he aint no Rossi either is he

It's not just down to the bike...Malandry. He was fustrated cos of being T boned all the time amnd that if he didn't lift the bike they'd have crashed(in MCN). Someone said to me he saw Rossi do that cork screw move in practice and he must have known he'd push Stoner wide. Also Rossi said they didn't touch, yeh, thanks to Stoner. But yes Rossi is deffinatly the showman in the paddock

Oh soryy abooot speeling

unfortunately he did make such a rookie error,as hes a bbc commentator when has he had the chance to commentate on bbc,guess they have met whilst haydon was working for eurosport.
what really annoyed me was how he used formula 1 and schumacher/hamilton as examples,whats wrong with comparing rossi n stoner with lawson/rainey/schwantz/doohan/etc the knowledge of the sport and its history is embarrasing to say the least.

[Blimey]

TOM R61 i don't think anyone would truly cheered if Stoner had been injured. It was one of those silly crashes that you could tell that he wasn't going to be injured. I admit i cheered but only because he lost it under pressure and the better man didn't screw up.

I'm not a Lorenzo lover but from the site of his accident i didn't even consider cheering at that as the poor bloke could of been killed.

I think your being a bit sensitive and hard on those who have admitted to cheering at Stoners crash. I don't think anyone ment it as a cruel, evil, wishing him injury sort of cheer mate.

Just a "YES" Stoner has broken under pressure sort of cheer. If he went through the air like Lorenzo did i would prob guarantee noone would of cheered.

Moving on

As for banter on here about Stoner and Rossi, I love it. Been a Schumacher fan for soooooo many years and have had to put up with his sooo called cheating way moans from everyone.

I say bring back racing like it used to be. The punchs and kicks. No of this single bloke move in F1 now and all the rest of the agressive behaviour we were used to.

Safety is ruining the sport. Ok its doing what its ment to do but the sport is becoming too lame.


Rossi knew on Sunday he did have a slower bike then Stoner and had to keep him behind him otherwise he would of ran away with it again. Rossi was better on the brakes and had to use this to his advantage of keeping ahead.

Couldnt give a fat rats ass. In my opinion if you cheer a biker falling off you have no concept of the skill, balls, dedication and passion needed to get to that arena in the first place.

You got yours and I got mine. But I will never ever cheer a biker falling off and I always support every rider on the grid. End of.

BTW. I dont need my name in big fekkin letters. I'm literate and I can see.
