Yeah, tell him he's useless

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (roger-m @ Aug 18 2008, 02:24 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>thats one of the stupidest things ive read. it was more like .3 or .4 of a sec for a start but even so .2 of a sec a lap with 16 laps to =3.2 sec when stoner was onlt 1 sec ahead. so he was most defo catching up.
and the lead was not being handled because he crashed !

Well it was being handled but as it turned out handled poorly

. Anyone can wipeout don't read too much into it it was just a wipeout. Pretty bad concequences like tossing away the chance at the championship but who hasn't wiped out? I stated that he would close on him and so what is your ....... problem? He was a good distance like 50 meters or more behind not 1 meter at that stage. Some time down the road he would have caught him but he wasn't close enough to feel his draft. Pete is now googling the distance behind a rider a draft is felt...
 
i wont be looking at rossi's times today, we know they are testing alot of new things so maybe the bike needs a different kind of setup and thats what they have been doing, after some upgrades maybe the M1 needs re-tweaking to get it optimal.

Dude, you are so wrong on this one. Rossi has to win the test.

Yes me to!!! I liked that Capirex did the duty for 3rd and although not a fan of Toni Elias I am a fan of Ducati so very Happy to see him pick through the field and get second. I hope we get some of the bidpackers up towards the front as well to make it more intresting.

Glad to be of service. Maybe at Misano the crashfest will continue. God knows its happened before. The only hope of a close season now is that Rossi will not finish a race or two and tighten things up. A simple mechanical DNF will do I wouldn't wish injury on the lad (or anyone else for that matter). Otherwise...there's always next year. That is what us Zuke fans say on a regular basis.

the season is long and with six races to go anything can happen. rossi himself said he still has to push and not relax. 150 points still up for grabs. remember 06. rossi made up that difference when it looked impossible and casey and dani are capable all things considered.

it aint over till the fat lady sings !

You forgot 1 little thing.... Stoner is no Rossi.

And Rossi is no Hayden.

stoner has shown he is capable but in this case all he can do is try and win the remaining races and hope rossi dnf's or finish's at the back. stoner needs to win the remaining six and rossi concede 20 points which is quite possible with 6 races to go.

Yeah it is possible. Just remember the whole hayden pedrosa debacle. Then when we got to Valencia Rossi crashed out and voila the impossible just became possible. On a side note when writing this I remembered Haydens face when he won and that look was just aweful. I guess I will love to see that if he is winning for Ducati next year. I am a big fan but, .... I will be one of his biggest fans if he is on a Duc. I'll be yellin come on sour puss win face!!
