Had Dani not had the retirement and dnf'f he may well have sealed the championship, or are you blaming that on the "wall" ? How do you think the wall has prevented an HRC championship this year ?

No rebut for my logic above compa?



Are you kidding brother man? Well if we are gonna talk what ifs in results from crashing & dnfs, how about IF Stoner wouldn't have crashed and won the races? Maybe Rossi not busted up his leg. Lorenzo choosing to rider for the title rather than the wins , did these play no part? Read the "Pedro..think again" thread (which we should take this discussion there). I think I already made a decent case as to why the wall has been detrimental to winning a title. Danny has sucked up the resources detrimental to his teammate. Hell this one sided arrangement almost cost them the one title they manage to get despite them trying everything to almost prevent it. Certainly its been the case in the 800 era. They've chosen to live and die by a one-sided "team" environment, zero titles to date. Honda has the resources to support two #1 riders, they have chosen to go with Puig's insistence to the contrary. Yamaha, though they had a strong figure insisting they do the same one-sided approach, that is support one rider over the other, did NOT do this. And what resulted was a title. Score board!

Hi Drill - it's ok - best cure for choking is to barf - easily induced when I think about JL - his actions like ignoring the riders who stopped to congratulate him - his words and there is too much of his arrogant BS to list

So the wall can stay but both riders are to be supported equally



I'm very curious to see what is going to happen to the wall in Yamaha's garage next year, and also if Nicky will be under the same assault as Jorge was this year in his garage

Very few team have treated both rider's equally even when there is no wall, You hayden fans should be aware of this more than others there has always been #1 and #2 rider status. I doubt many if any teams could afford to give both #1 status unless the rider is bringing in lots of sponsor money to the team. I think the wall at least lets the garage run as its own team without interference.

Maybe some riders should ask, what i can do for the team instead of what the team can do for me. In other words if you want preference then bring in sponsor money to pay for it.

Jorge's guest at Valencia anyone ?

Well done indeed Horhay.

He will win more titles imo. and with Rossi and Stoner and Spies changing their team, Lorenzo is the first possible candidate at this moment.

Congratulations Jorge!! Lets hope you can defend your title against a full field for the whole of next season.
