Another ....... Poor Simoncelli??????? What is wrong with you ....... boppers.

yes i feel sorry for Simonclli, as he could have scored a podium very easily, but again with his temper throw it away, though i blamed him for the accident and i,m not happy at all for what is done to Pedrosa, but forgive me if i can't keep bitching about him for the rest of this year.

Maybe not everybody care about the safety of All riders as you do, or simply that we aren't saints like yourself.



Simoncelli did a mistake or fault and he recieved a penalty for it, imo even more due to the cercomstances and those guys who blamed and accused him for their own mistakes, and that made it look as if he is regularly riding agressive arround other riders.

Remember when we were all saying this in 2006?

i do cos it was correct? but i wont take away from stoners epic skills taking the machine there as he is clearly one of the best motogp riders, yamaha come out with a better machine in 2008 and now its hondas turn from the beginning of last season... 2010 till now, just this year honda have raised the bar to ridiculous levels and yamaha better take a good look if they want to keep there championship



i dont understand if you are being sarcastic or not? lol



this has nothing to do with stoners dominance btw i was saying about the honda before stoner was even known to be moving there



but i believe my comments are correct?

It really doesn't matter whether Pedrosa was going to make the corner or not..

Ofcourse it does as simoncelli had put his nose infront and if pedrosa was going too fast for the corner he would be partly to blame, personaly I dont think he was as I said he imo would have made the corner.

 

[rossiofsky]

Exactly. Was my thoughts. Oh a drive thru will help Rossi.



Bloody good ride by Rossi though. Masterpiece by Stoner. I did predict a 10+ second win by Stoner!!!

So you keep bitching about Simoncelli being at fault and at the same time you ..... that he was punished for it? piss off

 

[Jumkie]

In terms of actually comprehending how racing works - it is experientially like the difference between

having real ... and internet .....



When I read your comments on racing I find myself wincing.

It's like listening to a 12 year-old virgin lecture adults about the finer points of ........

i luv my ifone.

I rewatched today the BSB Superstock 600 at Oulton Park and saw a very bad crash which it took out the first leading 3 riders. But i dont know what they decided about that one.

Nice one,

I haven't rewatched the race yet, but from one angle (behind Pedrosa) it looked to me as if Pedrosa wasn't sure to go for it or not, before he got to corner and Maybe that has also to do a bit with Simonc's fault. Dont forget i,m not trying to put the blame on Pedrosa, or to excuse Simonceli's fault.

It makes no difference what Dani was doing b/c the crash was caused by a mental error--an inability to process information about time and space in real time. Dani did not make any mental errors. The mental errors were made by Simoncelli, but luckily for everyone in MotoGP, poor decision-making can be solved with fines, penalties, and a good kicking.

fucken ......! what about pedrosa... tool

JOI if you dont like it.

My comments were not in reference to any particular rider. I just remember everyone in 2006 kept saying how great the RC212V would be considering the RC211V was the greatest race bike ever built. And then they got it wrong. That was my only point.

Dani Pedrosa said it was "very unfair" that Marco Simoncelli only received a ride-through penalty for the Le Mans incident that left the Spaniard with a broken collarbone.

...

"We only just recovered from the nightmare of the last operation and now I'm hurt again," he said. "It is very unfair, I don't deserve it."

I think Autosport twisted Pedrosa's words there. I think he was saying life is unfair, not that Simoncelli's penalty was unfair.



I think he knows no amount of penalties will unbreak his collarbone.

 

[rossiofsky]

I don't think you and Ren understand first lap racing very well. Rossi did this and took a rider out and nothing was ever said. I bet you didn't know this did you. Its because dicing for position in the first three turns or so is much different than 10-20 laps in.

Then i think Stoner has forgotten this, since he wasn't happy with the Simoncelli's move in the first few corners of Jerez.

Sometimes i do enjoy your posts.

So its ok in your opinion to recklessly tear into corners that you may not be able to make and hope other riders get out of the way?



Am sure Rossi was berated for that very thing at the first corner at qutar, but hey its only our opinions so i'll just agree to disagree.

1. Potentially dangerous

Then do you consider Lorenzo's move today potentially dangerous?

Not the same. Dov did not end up on the ground as a result of the pass.

Do you mean if JL made the pass once the race is set (say after the first lap), then you wouls consider it dangerous? If the other rider not ending up on the ground is your criteria for dangerous riding, I remember you raising a lot of cries about Rossi's riding in Motegi 2010. There also, no one hit the ground. Then why the hue and cry?

Re: Your last comment - this is one of the most confused and absurdist bits of non-linear thinking you've come up with.

You really need to get some protein in your diet. Your brain will thank you.

I think my analogy is every bit as valid as your virgin analogy. I don't know what you mean by non-linear thinking there.



With all due respect, I am not sure I want to believe your claim to be the apostle of racing since you did what - Participate in some club racing?. You claimed to be a photographer and got even the basics wrong. So I will take your self-proclaimed status as a racer also with a pinch of salt.

a pretty good race...poor pedrosa though. i hope he can fully recover and ride the bike again as he's used to.



stoner in a dominant win...but pedbot/furball had his race pace..so if they stayed up right (and pedrosa not fade with that shoulder) would have been a show!



great podium for rossi..with some help from the unfortunate crash/ride through

Exactly. Dani said that it is unfair that he is so unlucky.....he could get a 3rd place finish today, but instead he got another bone broken...too much bad luck.
