Man.... I hope Lorenzo and Stoner is able to race tomorrow.

And what is up with Casey Stoner? He had bike trouble, but did he really need to stand up on his bike and made a point for the cameras to catch it? No wonder people say he is a complainer... he almost got hit by another rider by slowing down and standing up on his bike, putting on a theatrical show.
 
How many bikes went down this weekend? Suzuki x 3, Yamha x 2 and Ducati...lots of dough.

Agree - but remember Marco, who astonishingly got on the podium with a sprained ankle after Kurtis took him out, to secure the Ducati ride for the following year (bet he wished he'd never bothered)

Not content with the infamous high five, you've managed to do the same thing this year from 5,000 miles away

Well that was some bad craziness, at least Stoner was on his feet at the end there.

You get the award for dumbest post on this thread by far.

First of all, how the hell is he making the camera man show him looking at his front end?? Second of all he was off the race line and Melandri wasn't even close to him.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (roger-m @ Jul 4 2009, 11:42 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>jumkies just text me from the heli medi vac. lorenzo hurt bad. flying him out. FUCKAh ...., thanks to Jumkie for the update.
 
BTW I think that Lorenzo's shoulder was in bad shape. When they took him out of the ambulance and dropped the stretcher down he grabbed for his right shoulder. That is the shoulder that he came down on and slid across the gravel on. It looked pretty limp. Sorry to say that I think it will be one hell of a showing if he can lne up tomorrow.

But hey, I'm only sitting here in front of my computer. If I was trackside I might have been able to see his shoulder dislocate and hear it pop back into place. It's amazing what you can catch trackside.

Are you blind? He basically stood up on his bike and started to pound the front end of it, as if to purposely show the cameras that he's having trouble on his bike. In the process of doing that he WAS in the racing line, thus almost got sideswiped by another rider.... it was close. He should of known to get out of other people's way and stay out of the racing line during qualifying, heck he was the one who complained last time out about how riders were impeding his qualifying run!!!

As he consistently tends to do in the absence of either Tom or Pinky.

Actually Sacky, sometimes there are several - I thought you were referring to this one

That's crappy news about Lorenzo, I hope he's okay & recovers quickly.

I don't know. Considering how touchy Stoner are about other riders I found his behavior very strange or more correctly more of the same frustrated Stoner we saw at Assen. First of all, it certainly looked like a show. What the heck did he hope to find out? And even if he's off line it was quite different from an ordinary slow down lap with him going very slowly and at the replay it certainly looked like the worst move during the qualification, not counting the crashes.

yeah, with Stoner unwell, Lorenzo was probably the best chance of there being some really close racing tomorrow.

I wonder when all the haters are going to get on here and talk about Casey's fake highside that he planned becasue he new he couldn't get pole
<
Casey loves drama right
