Not this year though!

Motegi was a great example of the change in Casey's attitude... ride to win when possible & if not, keep it rubber side down & get as many points as you can = World Championship.

A wonderful formula that he discovered really... it's worked really well in the past for hmmm, let's see... Hayden, Rossi, Roberts Jnr, Criville, Doohan, Schwantz, Rainey, Lawson, Gardner, Spencer, Roberts Snr, Sheen etc, etc, etc.

The flip side of that is that Dani has scored more points than Hayden in the time they have shared in motogp, and you cant argue with that.


Yes, well, there has to be some consolation prize.

But I need to give credit where credit is due.


All hail the greatest rider since Nicky Hayden.

Scoring more points is not a consolation, its a victory.

ahh come on, did you really expect Dani's crash to go without comment? they revel in the fact Dani, occasionally, makes mistakes. because no other riders do of course
<
any excuse for a dig...


Dani's mistake was not coming into the pits (and that goes for all of the top 4 INCLUDING stoner) it was a stupid move on everyone's behalf, not that it mattered to casey in the end mind, but as dani says in his interview its all well and good looking at it with hindsight but being there at the time is different. they all wait for each other.

i wonder if dani had a tc problem because he got highsided, very unusual these days.

Yeah I wondered if the thing siezed!!??? .... just looked like the back suddenly had its own mind!!


Bummer .... just when things were looking good for him.

Hopefully he'll be ready for PI.
 
didn't look like a tc problem that caused the crash. he seemd to highside going into the corner not out of it, maybe he touched a white line or as someone said up there, the thing may have seized

TC does NOT stop highsides. Look at Melandri at Misano. TC does what you "program" it to do - it is not a panacea. Oh, and it makes the racing less about the rider and more about the calibrator. Ban it.

agreed, that would sort the men out from the boys...


oh, and because its relevant here (what the thread being about him and all) i thought id mention that Dani thinks he may have broken a bone in his left foot during the crash. bummer.

exactly. it does'nt stop highsides, but it's very helpfull on this matter.

We can't have it banned because Rossi will win all the races and all the youth will highside. Which is gonna be boring.
