They are both massive egos, hence the childish clash spoken of above. The difference is that Lorenzo has success and world championships to worry about

Seriously though, i'm not impressed with either of these guys

Lorenzo shouldn't be following the touchy Stoner example, it wont make him any friends and encourages people to intimdate him on purpose. Hopper should know better and should be able to control himself. Reaching over to shove other riders on the track is not acceptbale and is not safe (that is provideing its actually true).

Apparently Lorenzo will be apologising for his over reaction (and rightly so), i would hope Hopper is also sporting enough to apologize for his behaviour.

Dude, you quoted some joe's comments. I'm talking about the actual reporting source. Let me know if you find it from an actual article (rather than somebody's commentary about it).

Haha, who was it here that said, just put "world" in front of something and all of a sudden it means something special. Dude, that's a 250 championship. So what, Hopper has a lower class championship as well. It doesn't have nothing to do with that at all, but I do agree with the rest of your statement. Even then, its interesting to read about the schoolyard fun. It makes the vast time between races more entertaining.

I meant that Lorenzo is in a position to think about winning motogp world title in the not distant future, Hopper not so much. But yeah this is schoolboy stuff!!

dam jumkie you know im not a member of the winky and warry club.....

i was just saying that stoner has done more kicking and screaming on the track than most of the riders have in there career lololololol

Some racing incidents cause a reaction !! Its human nature.
I was once involved in an MX crash. The young lad in front of me young being (19) I being (25) was going into a slow corner and went down, and I had nowhere to go crashed into him and got caught up in his bike. My pants were caught in his foot pegs and my wrists were burning on his exhaust, which later needed hospital treatment. I am stuck on his bike, burning and stuck, then I hear him shouting 'get off my bike you .......' Well next thing I saw the red mist ( Got real Mad) and freed myself, got up walked up to him grabbed him and said ' You ever say anything to again I'll ...... Kill YOU!!!' He just froze. I then remounted and finished the race.

Does anyone think that was a .... of thing to do ? I think it was more than fair !

These young whipper snappers !

Agreed. Furthermore they have made careers over their ability to control aggression, stay calm and steer clear of some of our natural instincts. Things like this come up from time to time in 125/250, but at this level it should be very much beneath them.

The funniest thing is that Lorenzo has achived more in 2 races than Hopper has in the 10 years he has been in GP. (Well it feels like he's been doing .... all for that long)

Like you guys are saying, that ..... is schoolboy motocross, not GP.

Could have something to do with why Hopper reacted as he did, it must make him feel pretty insecure.

You put Hopper on a Yam I reckon he would whip Jorge and Maybe even rossi. Hopper so smooth.
