Is a MUGELLO RACE THREAD being boycotted too?

Great ride from Bradl. Very impressive stuff. With Cortese doing well and hopefully Folger someday realizing some of his potential, I'd 'Ze Germans are coming!'



Great rides from Lorenzo and Dovizioso too. Pedro doing his bridesmaid thing.



Hayden has been a nice sparring-partner for Bradl this season. He isn't an easy guy to pass and Bradl has been becoming more and more cheeky. Starting to pay off.



Nice to see that Rossi finally got his thumb out. Would be even better if he'd be doing that the other 17 rounds.



Weekend to forget for Stoner. Hope the new chassis brings improvement. Dumb move on Bautista, shouldn't have tried that sort of manouvre if he knew he had braking/entry issues. Apology to Bautista would be in order.



Pity about Barbera, I was hoping he could keep some of that momentum.

Stacey Moaner "His ambition out weighs his talent" What a ....!! Good riddance at the end of the season.

Not sure thats a sensible conclusion, I mean he actually made the pass and nobody got knocked off ........... thats talent.

True but it was funny.

Agree about stoner. Feasible move if he didn't have issues and a mistake rather than malicious, bone head move if he had issues as you say, and I wouldn't necessarily argue against karma for his past attitude particularly to petruccio, and fortunate there was no worse outcome. A week of bad decisions, including the tyre gamble.



Nicky is cursed, could have had a podium.



Rossi rode well, was close to a podium on merit.



Lorenzo was in a world of his own this weekend and was always going to win.



I wouldn't criticise pedro, no amount of effort or courage could have got him a win.



Dovi keeps on keeping on.



Roger, I give up . You win, if that is what you want.

Why does it appear that Casey has gone to Marquez school of race craft? You know a ..... is so close to an ......., sometimes its hard to tell the difference.

Is that why your breath is so foul?

Wasn't crazy for that pass - but must point out that fans of Simoncelli were all clapping and going whoo hooo and passing it off as trading paint when he did the same thing.

......... That line was covered so never was feasible. He got all hot headed because i had tried to pass Bautisa several times and not got it to stick. It was a desperate move for ....... 9th place

Wow. That desperate for an argument?

If it was Simoncelli instead of Stoner you'd have been the first one to tell everyone to stop moaning.

 

[Goatboy]

Can you say karma? Can you say humble pie?



No, I didn't think you could.

OK, stupid move whatever he was trying to do.



Not being drawn further roger. I will leave the keyboard bullying to you licensed guys in future.

 

[Keshav]

Speaking of "desperate" I sent an email to the ever gracious Nick Harris suggesting just once in a blue moon he might substitute the word "determined" in place of the over-used "desperate" and he said he'd try. Turns out he didn't use the word desperate even once in either Moto 2 or MGP.

But it wasn't the Simo fans who told the world he NEVER makes dangerous moves during a race, was it !

So then, that's your way of conceding what Stoner did (and I don't approve) was no different or worse than

stuff Simoncelli was lauded for by you and Pete etc?

Again?

Spies' season is embarassing, it is totally unacceptable. I don't really want to say this as I'm a Crutchlow fan but I don't understand how Yamaha can justify not putting Dovi in the factory team next year... Unless the weight of Yamaha USA can swing it in Bens favour.



Lorenzo rode incredibly today, he was in a class of his own.



Stoner vs Bautista is sure to cause a stir, I'm looking forward to both of their comments. As i watched it I thought it looked a bit like Dani vs Marco at LeMans but a bit 'softer'. Luckily nobody came off their bike, the thing that confused me the most was how Casey could have such a significant speed advantage over Alvaro but be unable to make a decisive move on him, bad bad day for Mr Stoner.

 

[thedeal]

An excuse every week but i bet he keeps that ride,i think Dovi genuinely deserves it now.

I was wrong, you were right. Anything else?
