MUGELLO Italian GP (Predictions & Practice/Qual)
- Thread starter Jumkie
- Start date
Best wishes for Rossi on a speedy and complete recovery. Let's hope this is not a career-ender.
All we can hope for now is that Stoner or Pedrosa step and and give us a championship race.
PS: let's also hope the rider Rossi slowed down to let past doesn't get blamed for this.

I sincerely hope alex briggs knows more than we do right now when he said "believe only half of what you read"
it's a good tweet:
"In this game you have good days and bad days. Today is a bad day. I'm not going to waste your time with telling you about the rider's leg. You will be being bombarded with it. This is the side of racing we all live with and fear. Its always hard to see your rider and friend in pain. But don't despair it a broken leg. They heal and when it does we will race. I will read all your tweets tonight. Thankyou for your wishes. Talk to you later. PS belive only half of what you read! AB"

Oh well, it’s racing, the risk is always there. Hope Rossi heals soon!
He (we, as in supporting him) only needs 18 more wins and a Championship, so to Rossi this could be a ‘walk in the park’… Of course all hopes so he can ride to the best of his abilities very soon!

F that! Rossi didnt deserve his crown last year, it should have been Lorenzo's. This year, he'll take back what was supposed to be his.

Well good on you for putting your hand up as the first ....., but there will be many more like yourself who might "get the picture" finally.
Rog. will still missTom's point no doubt.
Hard fall for Rossi not nice to see such pain. Lets hope he heals well.
Yes, that is what I meant... Did not remember how to say or spell it though! Sorry, must have been a block out in my mind!

Holy Crap! What this season lacks in race action - it kinda makes up in the drama department.
This year is turning out be a bigger soap opera than The Sopranos.

While not a "Rossi Fan" I admire the hell out of him. This actually saddens me. I have been looking forward to the historical
moment when he reaches his goal of beating Ago's record. Someone here was predicting that Rossi or another rider would
crash out (during the race) and I have to admit I was thinking it too. But I wouldn't put my thoughts into words because I'd
never wish that on a rider. But I remember thinking - while reading that post - that it was amazing that Rossi could go so many
years without ever incurring an injury bad enough to make him miss a race. Looks like he's going to have to do "A Doohan".

Just to be sure you know Compa - I wasn't taking the piss out of you. I just didn't understand.
Funny... I googled your spelling and found a lot of people for whom English is a first language
who had spelled it exactly the same way.

There goes that Doohan like legendary status. The question has been asked many times how Rossi would react to serious injury, now we know. Doohan would have taped his leg back on and went out and won the championship. Rossi to miss half a season with sore leg.
In all seriousness, this sucks. Im not his biggest fan but i dont ever wish injury on any rider. Well, maybe except for that time back in 2006

All this aside.... it's good to see that Ayoama is finally getting his bike sorted out
and that he's starting to show a bit of the kind of competitiveness he had last year.
It's been depressing seeing such a spirited rider all the time at the back of the pack.
And Edwards seems to be coming out of his slump.
I missed qualifying this morning - had to go out and run before the heat got too bad.
I came home at the end to hear announcers saying that Elias had run into all kinds
of drama in practices. What happened with him?
