siebenbürgen süße heimat!
Good call??? he deliberately slammed him at speed,if heaven forbid someone looses there life with a move like that where does moto gp go then?? yes crt's are to slow to be on track with the prototypes but a move like that by any rider should be the end of there season full stop,just because his bike is slow and Stoner disagrees with the concept of crt thats no excuse to put his life at risk ,the move by Sofuoglu and this one by Stoner could so easily prove fatal at these speeds,Stoner is a complete disgrace.

These CRP Machines should run there own sessions no way should they be on the same track at the same time as motogp bikes thats where your going to get trouble
the dumb fecks that came up with this CRP idea have caused this.(lol lets make motogp 1000cc and run them with wsbk's WTF)
IF they love the CRP Format so be it but get them there own sessions its not like a motogp weekend is short of hours to get the CRP There own sessions

Hectors quick lap was on his own and impressive Hayden only bettered it with a tow,is Rossi sure Audi need him? and i heard today that Ducati do not want Cal and Rossi has asked for Nicky to stay.

Rossi talks out of his Arse lol Sounds like Shaggy (It Wasn't Me)
Valentino Rossi has denied he is trying to influence Ducati to re-sign current factory team-mate Nicky Hayden over British rider Cal Crutchlow for next year’s MotoGP world championship.
The 33-year-old, who kicked off practice for his home race at Mugello with the ninth fastest time, denied he had said that his preference would be to partner Hayden in 2013, should he agree to remain with the Bologna factory next season.
Rossi hasn’t yet decided where his own future lies but Ducati has been negotiating with Crutchlow for a two-year contract.
Crutchlow was anticipating getting a written contract to mull over at Ducati’s home race in Mugello this weekend but that is not going to happen.
Hayden’s future remains unclear while Ducati negotiates with Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Team rider Crutchlow but Rossi has an excellent relationship with the Kentucky rider.
Rossi was Hayden’s team-mate when the American first came to MotoGP at Repsol Honda in 2003 and they have been together at Ducati for the last two years.
Rossi told MCN: “No, this is not true (that he endorses Hayden). I said that I like Cal very much and I have a very good relationship with him. He is one of the funniest guys in the paddock.
"But I also very much like Nicky and I know him better because we share time together and a team for longer. He is a good guy and very fast. But I don't give real advice to Ducati. For me Crutchlow or Hayden is the same."
Rossi denied Italian media reports that he had made his mind up what and where he will be riding in 2013. "No, it's not true," he added.
But with Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa confirmed at HRC and Ben Spies appearing favourite to keep his factory Yamaha rider, Rossi was asked whether he felt his options for 2013 were vanishing fast.
Rossi had positive meetings with senior Audi executives during last weekend’s German Grand Prix.
Audi is in the process of finalising its takeover of Ducati in a deal rumoured to be worth over £700m and Rossi said: “I have to speak more with guys from Ducati and Audi about the future.
"I spoke in Germany with the Audi guys and they have lot of enthusiasm for this project. We have to speak more deeply but it can be an option for the future."
Rossi said the issue is that he would put his faith in Audi to spark a dramatic turnaround in his on-track fortunes with no assurance of success.
The nine-times world champion has only scored two podiums in 25 races for Ducati and he said staying would clearly be a big gamble.
“The problem is I have to trust that the situation will improve in the future with the help of Audi to fix the problem of the bike.
"But it is just a bet. I don't have any insurance about if we are able to fix the problem of the bike because in one and half years we have not been able to do it. It depends on a lot of things," said Rossi.
He would say that,personally i dont believe a word he says anymore weve had many years of his ........ and mind games.If he told me it was raining id look out the window.

In the study
Crutchlow is way to hungry for Rossi's liking and Rossi has a long history of having an American donkey to help him with his set up work. Hayden just want to be there (MotoGP) where as Crutchlow wants to win. Big difference.
Also if Rossi has had to deny it in the media then you know 100% it is true.
