Does he know you're coming jumkie?

Hahaha. Well if the weee man is tough enough to race with a broken finger (probably the one he uses to finger you know who), well then I'll accept his entry with not much ranker.

But I'm still wearing my Dani Sucks T-shirt.

Dani's gone home.
Quote from LINKY
Alla fine il Dani Pedrosa ha dovuto arrendersi e darla vinta ad un fisico ancora segnato dalla botta rimediata al Sachsenring. Lo spagnolo saluta tutti e sale in macchina verso San Francisco per tornare a casa, ma prima dichiara: "Forse avrei potuta farcela grazie ai trattamenti del dott.Costa, ma a parte il male, non sono messo bene nemmeno con le gomme. Soprattutto per quanto riguarda la seconda parte di gara".


He basically says "Maybe I could have done it with Dr. Costa's treatments, but apart from the pain I'm not ok with they tyres either. Especially for the second half of the race"

OUCH. That's gotta hurt for Michelin.

Dani's out.

Oh dear!

He's lucky he won't be around for race day when 50,000 people show up with the <strike>26</strike> t-shirts.

Pedro is out too bad, but is an unecessary risk to try and race since his times in the practice yesterday, he need to recover in this break until brno

Yep, I reckon Rossi would have raced, even for a couple of points, But that is a tough track. I think there's too much preasure on riders these days to get back on to quick, anyone who's had a broken bonewill know how painfull it can be, no mater how advanced medical science has come it can't speed up the healing process of the human body.
It takes six weeks to heal a broken bone, it can't be done quicker, unless any of you out there know different.

Dani tried, but was in too much pain, and didn't look like he would get many points.

Didn't Rossi retire from a race a couple of years ago when he was in too much pain (and down the order), after a crash. Probably his disastrous 2006 season.

To fly to the USA and give it a try is admirable. To pull out is a shame. Stay on your bike in future please. How petty is this place when people are speulating about Pedrosa and Rossi's respective pain thresholds..
