for sure rossi is having sum trouble late into the season, reasons well it just could be a bit of front end chatter, its a track that he likes so he will be tryin to sort it and will be giving it lots of effort so if he stays on track then hes gunna b close...
little loris is ona high or wot...
 
I would like to see rossi win the championship tomorrow, if its not this race, it will be the next, so i'd say: let's take the win!
love seeing capirossi on his ducati, it's like he's wrestling with it! he's so LITTLE!!I realy admire him for his drivingsstyle, he is one of the best..
don't think hayden will do good tomorrow, I think it looks like the asian tracks are not his favorites. but as a fan, I hope he'll end on in the top 3.
maybe hopkins will give us a suprise?? I hope he rides good in malesia.
by the way, did you all saw the lizard on the track

rossi will win the championship on sunday for sure. max has to beat him by 14 points. max would have to win & rossi finish 6th or worse, i don't see this happening. max is 12th on the grid, rossi 7th. i don't think the dr. is going to crash out this time. 1. caparossi win #2, 2. rossi, 3. hopkins( this is a long shot, but possible ) givin the nod to bridgestone.

Turned out to be a pretty exciting race. Too bad Nicky's tire chunked on him. I was impressed with how long he was on Vale's tail. Checa was absolutely flying.

Big Congrats to Loris and to my man Vale...
 
and rossi has won the championship so well done to Valentino, 7 world titles not bad eh,and Mr Caporossi has some one stuck a rocket up his ass, 2 wins in a row well done to him,must not forget contract time so,that could explain alot

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE <div class='quotemain'>Too bad Nicky's tire chunked on him. I was impressed with how long he was on Vale's tail.

what?? I was totaly not impressed... he makes his turnings HUGE, he's sliding all over the place!!! rossi could just pass him and if vale wasn't busy fighting with capirossi, vale could easily drive away. but it was nice seeing him up front, where he belongs. and maybe it was his tires that didn't last that long..
me and my dad had an huge discussion about hayden. I think it looks like nick is very easily satisfide with a 4th/5th place, while he could get a 3th or better.

I know I'm not the one who should critize nicky, I don't even know how to drive but I thought he could do much better and he was so close with a podium place, closer then usual. hopefully he will get one in qatar
 
I think the problem we are seeing with Nicky is he knows that if he doesn't stick with the leaders in the opening laps he has no chance at catching them later on in the race so we see him cooking his tires rather early. Sepang was a bit of a different story as his tire chunked but I am sure his tires weren't in good shape after 13 of 15 laps as he fell off Capirossi, Rossi and Checa's pace rather quickly. He's just missing that tenth of a second consistantly on race tires, once he finds that I think he will be a consistant challenger. And not just for third, race wins will roll his way.
 
as a rossi fan i must watch how i write this but well done to loris who didnt seem to make a mistake unlike motegi, but vale ride was good, for sum reason the front end seems to b playing up a bit at present and with doha next week unless they sort it soon much of the same nex week too. edwards 10th says it all to me, any veiws?
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE <div class='quotemain'>dont u think all nickys sliding aint doing him any favours? its all slide with him .. any veiws?

well it's sure not helping him... he leaves a small space everytime he turns in to a corner, an when he goes a bit out his line, he goes realy wide so the people behind him can just pass him.it's like he's trying to make the turnings longer and straighter, instead of making the turns.

some people on other forums (like the one on nickyhayden.com) are talking about what nicky is going to do when he has won the motogp chamionship: if he goes back to the ama or that he will try to win the sbk too. for sure I am a fan of him, I love to see him ride, but these people got to get realistic. nicky has talent, just like all the other riders. he's young, and he has got potential to win several gp and MAYBE if he develops more (i.e. adapt his drivingsstyle a little bit), he could have a change to win the championship. but I don't see him win the championship jet, nor the sbk

can't say this on nicky-forums

The reason I am impressed with Nicky is because Usually after he runs in the front and gets passed he just fades away...kinda what happened after Checa passed him. But he was really in Vale's mirrors for a good chunk of the race.
 
For sure the sliding isn't helping him at the moment but it is the way he comfortably rides the bike, that's what you get when you grow up racing in the dirt. For the moment I think it would be more valuable for him to continue the way he is riding rather than trying to smoothen out his style. I firmly believe there is still more to come from Nicky and no point in changing the way he rides, which can be a hindrance to a rider's results, when sooner or later he will be a clear cut no. one rider who can have a bike developed around his style. At that point his loose style will work together with whatever bike he is riding.

Marijke I know what you mean with the Nicky forum, I don't check it out much anymore as there aren't many knowledgable posters anymore. Apart from our buddy General.
