On second thoughts, wondering if it is worth the trouble for one race, as it could be logistically difficult. I shall ask a bunch of my folks for this.. thanks.

if you have any difficulty finding the entire video, and are SURE you want to listen to Moody screech like a cat in heat, PM me.

Oh ok, perhaps it is because of my ancestors, having traveled back and forth between England and Bangalore (well, the British had quite a positive influence and were in excellent relations with Southern India, so many of our older generations here in the South are of mixed heritage as well). Like I said, some places in India have not really seen political turmoil (knock on wood) and live near Utopian lives even if not wealthy - the Indians and the British found the relationship mutually positive and beneficial to both - a perfect symbiosis. Besides, the automotive industry has a huge base here in the South, as they manufacture crankshafts and some other racing components (I do not know details) and hence the exposure. The local races back then, where my uncles raced at, were so "rudimentary" and they "engineered" their street bikes; racing was only a side hobby to their day jobs. This, combined with the laid-back, Utopian era of the 60's may have somewhere built-up passion for motorsports in general.. as I said, the country is a paradox. This pretty picture I paint here is not seen all over India, where life is starkly different - some other regions in the country are privileged too but in ways very different from what I describe. One does not need to be wealthy in some regions here in India to live a fulfilling life - the current times however, are not so Utopian and we are gradually facing the bitter ironies of the system. I just happen to be lucky, to be sandwiched between the "good" and "bad" eras to witness and have an opinion..

Oh i do not enjoy this race either, as I hate what happened that race! But I saw Toby Moody mention on twitter that this was one of their best ever commentaries... and for the couple of years I lived in the UK, I just realised their commentary being so much more entertaining than the regular one, although I do find Nick Harris and Gavin Emmet too very good. I would actually like all the races in that season, as it was by far one of the best seasons in motogp..

The rest of the race is nearly as entertaining, with some great racing. I'd be happy to send you a holiday card with a DVD full of videos from 'Santa.'

Thanks. You seem so level headed, why are you a member of PS? hahaha. Well, you have managed to sift through all the mayhem here, so kudos to you. We are better for members like you.
(Big ups to Geo if he gets you those races.)

Oh I decided to become a member, as the sport is so exciting and one gets tempted to discuss and gossip about the sport, given how hot was the contention in the factory Yamaha team those years, and especially with VR's big Ducati move! And the rabid, opinionated discussions too show how involved is the forum in the sport which is nice, as other online forums are not that active as this one is..

Estoril 2006, the last time a satellite bike won a race, and the only time Toni Elias won a race. An incredible spectacle

...and the races in a nice DVD in an xmas card arrived on Christmas eve!! Thank you Geonard and Jumkie.. this is a lovely forum.
Been watching a race a day, and reliving those races now I cannot help wonder at how close were the bikes that season, and the races definitely more thrilling than today's, although one can't help admit an extra something in Marquez and Stoner in the new era, in terms of raw talent - wonder what it might have been like with Marquez in the fray on the 2006 Repsol Honda or Yamaha. We know how it went for Stoner on the Michellin though.. also, I think the Rossi of the new era is actually a better rider than he was in 2006 - more refined, more disciplined which perhaps is the thing that is not really working for him, besides the machinery and more talented nemeses?
