Wasn't sure Brad could bridge the gap to the lead 3...but brilliant ride.
Always nice to guys get their first win
 
I had to google peter heater. Thank you for building my new vocabulary.
I use one to keep my brush warm.

I suspect this troll is heating mdub's Peter.

My first thought was JKD but I get the impression he might of read a few books without pictures so I'm nominating dub.

I'm 90% sure I'm arguing with willski.

They're waiting for the fog to clear at the circuit. Will probably be delays in warm ups.

Rossi's ....... spaceship!
 
I think the idea that he cracked has merit, and is the theory J4rn0, the most sensible, knowledgeable and rational Rossi fan on here...

...Rossi attempted his career long practice of attempting to intimidate other riders/turn...

...it involved a race MM actually won...

I can't see any valid arguments there sorry. Ad hominem remarks won't get us anywhere. "Mind games" accusations sound vague and implausible in this case. I'm yet to hear a fully developed theory about that. What, specifically, was the "game" about this time?

The fact that MM (just) managed to win the race can be used both as evidence that he was or that he wasn't "playing".

The ad hominem logical fallacy in debate refers to attacking your opponent rather than his argument, not to the subject of the debate, and I am happy to exempt you from the category of those who have praised Valentino over the length of his career for the subtlety, strength and success of his "mind games", a real rather than imaginary category of people as you can't deny, if you don't belong to it.


If I have made an ad hominem attack on VR in any case, what exactly did Valentino do in regard to MM at those pre-Sepang press conferences? You asked for a possible explanation for why Valentino made those accusations, I gave my opinion, which I fully realise is my opinion only and unprovable, unlike you in accepting those accusations, and it would seem likely unlike Valentino in making the accusations.

What is at all open to argument about it being preposterous to maintain a rider tanked a race that he won, btw?

Iannone and Crutchlow running together.... I wonder who will crash first.

Edit: Dovi having some kind of tyre issue and didn't feel safe out there. Are people still going to say that Michelin quality control isn't a problem?
 
Obviously an unequivocal great dry win by Valentino, far too good on the day.

He may well be too good for Jorge this year, particularly in races where tyre wear is a factor.

Impressed by MM's new headier approach once again.

BORING....

Rossi was very JLo like in his 113th Win...
MM couldn't bring himself to attack Jorge...
Ducati looked awful at this Yamaha track...Jorge has a lot of work to do at team red...

Its seems easy to win when everything is perfect....but when things arent that is where Jorge suffers....much like his mentor Biaggi used to struggle unless everything was perfect...

It is never easy to win a GP race against current opposition, and any such wins whatever the margin should not be dismissed imo, but I don't dispute like pretty much everyone he has probably never been as good as Rossi at preserving tyres or riding on worn tyres
 
Boy, Rossi laid the snack down... No one else even had a shot. Like one of the announcers said, gave JLo a bit of his own Medicine.
