Sorry....is the special kid trying to take the piss????????





Aw bless, sorry but I'm getting bard, board, bored with your attempts at humour, Do you like it when lady boys chok, chalk, choke you?





ok next time dont try correct people acting all smart and .... if you dunno simple grammer yourself

Ha ha you really don't get it you thick .......! I won't correct your grammer again. Even though the word is grammar.



This is shooting fish in a barrel.



Is your name meant to be Panties but you got confused?



Ha Ha, you are tops for comedy!



Show us more Hong Kong lady boy sites girlfriend!

"Dunno simple 'grammer"'. Haha it never fails.





Anyway, I think we're gonna hav a battle between the Yamahas. Lorenzo may be friendly with Spies now, but he may sing a diff tune if he trades with Spies.



I dont mind Pedro refusing to shake Stuper Suc's hand. I think it took a bit of balls. He may remember Nicky refused to shake his hand too...
 
According to a poster on crash.net (so in other words don't read it as gospel) Alex Hoffman apparently stated Rossi did a best time of 1:48.5 on the GP12 at the recent Mugello test - so he still would have been around half a second off the leader in FP3 and Stoners pole time.



Rossis time was also set in hotter conditions.
Looks like he should have waited before he went and did all the talking about the bike being his and faster than Casey on the 1000's. I think they can still fix it but somebody needs to tell Filippo to .... or get off the pot, Kropo said the bike was designed by Filippo before VR and JB arrived so maybe it can get better, I'll keep my fingers crossed. In the latest interview that I read on gpone, Rossi admits that the GP12 also has front end problems. Maybe somebody at Ducati is doing all these rain dances

It's not about speed.



The intention of seamless transmission is to conserve fuel which was HRC's main concern, but this has seemingly exacerbated the existing stability problems of the RCV in corner entry and under braking. Like I say it wasn't developed around speed or to derive a faster lap time - and confers perhaps a tenth max.



As I said earlier, certain members were oblivious to this fact at the start of the season when they maintained that the system was good for a second a lap and accounted for Casey's immediate superiority in lap times. One of these fanatical yellow zealots has completely disappeared after pledging to be at Silverstone, and another seems to have been permanently silenced - exhausted by Keshav's intransigence. The rest should largely evaporate or switch to Sic in a couple of seasons time.





All more than a little pre-mature Arrab from you, seems as if you are genuinely happy with the state of affairs, not surprising, and are blowing early on the eventuality........we all know you love to take it to Rossi fans at a whim, what I continually find disappointing is your inconsistency in applying this to at the very least equal rabid fan of other riders.....? In most cases more rabid.



Making your usually insightful POV seem less relevant and more like one of the typical haters. Whilst its easy to point the finger at some who have disappeared from here, the reasons for their lack of interest here are probably more relevant to my statements above.





As for Mugello, being optimistic its looking potentially interesting for the win, in saying that I don't believe anyone actually thinks we will get a race anywhere near the level of what this place has produced in the past. Hondas are fast, not surprising, Yamaha's are improved which is good, Ducati need to re-evaluate everything, and the weather isn't helping anything!!

Even the nut behind the wheel? Isn't that why they introduced the GP11.1?

You have a talent for transforming reasonable people into what you perceive to be "haters" talpa. Whilst a large percentage of your posts concern your hatred for stoner and contentions that any success he has is only due to "advantages", I would suggest that you shouldn't be too shocked by replies in kind.
 
Michael - in some 3,900 posts that's the first time I've seen an expletive in one of your posts my friend. .... - it must be bad!

I have edited appropriately to what I really meant, risking my reputation by making a grammatically incorrect statement in that it is now tautological.
 
what a tosser, stoner is like giggling school kid in that vid

What a bunch of ......s the current grid is.



Hey Rog why don't you post up a vid of you looking like a fat school bully

On a side note Rog I have to say you and I do seem have a lot in common. We both drive wrx's, are anti-isreal, climate change sceptics, and both of us are ...... I'm videoing Lord Monckton tomorrow night here in Perth and can post the vid to youtube if you're interested?

Try not to get your camera taken, his speeches are closed to any form of media.

The weather is causing Ducati all sorts of problems at the moment with a lack of testing time in the dry really hampering their efforts to sort this most recalcitrant of bikes. I think the extremely hot conditions in which they tested the GP12 in Mugello recently may have also masked some of the front end problems they are again experiencing with the new chassis. We have seen evidence of this during qualifying and free practice....Suzuki, like Ducati, have also traditionally had problems getting heat into the tires and one of the few tracks they often go well at is Sepang where track temperatures are usually extremely high. I would suggest the recent inclement weather and cooler track temps at Mugello is why the Ducs front end problems have again resurfaced.



Rossi's move to team red is so far proving to be a nightmare.....his reputation has suffered in terms of not only his riding abilities but also his development skills. Both his and JB's statements pre-season reagarding Stoners riding and the ease of fixing the bike were in hindsight ill judged and have come back to haunt them.



I for one, however, feel far too many people give Valentino too much credit for the development of the bikes he pilots. I am sure he is no doubt a "genius" in terms of giving feedback but to develop a winning bike so many other factors also come into play....you need the right support personell (engineers, designers, technicians, mechanics etc) a decent budget to work with and communication between factory and rider has to be a two way street. I am sure Rossi has not lost his ability to give precise feedback but do Ducati have the ability to translate this information into correcting the current problems with the bike? The recent past would suggest otherwise.....



The fact of the matter is they have long been receiving the exact same feedback (vague front end, rear pumping etc) from many of their other riders but they chose to ignore it....however, now that the 9x world champ is shouting from the rooftops about it all of a sudden these complaints are deemed valid and they are now throwing everything but the kitchen sink at these issues in a panic striken attempt to rectify the problems....not a very smart development strategy and this along with their relience on unique and unproven technologies seem to me the main reasons why their bikes have not really progressed much in the last few years and have seemingly reach a performance plateau.



So far ALL of their riders (bar a certain buck toothed Australian) have stuggled....and this includes multiple world champions. No one else has had the balls or the ability to push past this seemingly impossible envelope....the Chuck Yeager analogy with respect to Casey Stoner, suddenly seems very appropriate.
 
if it wasnt for stoner, ducati prob would be like kawasaki, out the back door already.... but look what hes done for them, he has sigle handedly kept them relvant for 4 year and have made ducati the most populated bike in the field, and have bascially paved a path for rossi to be on the ducati. Ducati have a lot to thank stoner for, yet people still hate.

Wear that "hater" badge with pride my friend...coming from Talpa, who is without doubt the least insightful and objective poster on this forum, you can logically conclude that the posts you do make here have a high degree of validity. If you posess views that are diametrically opposed to Talpas it is usually a good indicator of logical thinking and factual accuracy...not only that but they are more often that not highly entertaining

Fully agree with you 'Mr Squiggle' VR’s & JB’s philosophy was, and they bragged about how Stoner is not a developer like they are blah blah blah…well where is the development??? In the past when they were with Honda and Yamaha they had like you said top engineers, developers, designers technitians, mechanics etc…but Val like you say and I agree gets far too many accolades for his genius??? I’ll believe it now if he can fix and start to win races on the Duk like Stoner did (straight out of the box) otherwise he will be remembered as the court jester of motogp!!! And further more what Stoner said about Val is coming to be more and more to the fore…if it aint got 'abs tc or auto pilot' then Val can’t ride it and the Duk needs a man on a horse to ride it not a monkey on a stick like Val seems to be…heee







Have a look at what CS did at Mugello yesterday in qualifying, this is a perfect example, no theatrics no ........ just pure balls and riding ability to push the envelope to its limit no matter what the conditions are!!! That is why he is where he is and will succeed on whatever unit he’s riding…bring on Suzuki next!!!

G'day lad, I'm in Perth too.



The stats will tell the story of the 800cc era, and will certainly show that Stoner won more races than any other rider.

The only rider who can leave the era with more race wins than Casey is Rossi, and to do so he needs to win 7 of the remaining 11 races if Casey doesn't win again. Stoner has won just under 35% of the races in the 800cc era, and he didn't even start in some of them.

In all likleyhood, the era will end with 2 championships apiece for for Stoner and Rossi, but Stoner the only one to win races and championships for 2 different manufacturers, barring bad luck or injury.

It really looks like the end of a career, and a new guru taking over.

Fully agree and most definitely, Stoner is the new guru and I'm certain that he will even be greater than Doohan as a Honda pilot, Stoner reminds me very much of Rainey with his ability and his determination and Lorenzo, Pedro, Simo and Val are ending up looking like the Schwantz’s of this era, in comparison to CS…hehee

Rossi is having trouble cuz Uccio doesn't like to wear red. Now Valentino can't concentrate on racing if Uccio is always mad at him.







Rossi, them pearl necklaces ain't gonna work this time buddy.
