Not in another thread.

Barry, may be mad as a meat-axe but he is MY mad uncle Barry ......................, not yours.
In another lifetime, you would have lamented such pan-thread obsessiveness.
You don,t seem to be the same person as the past revered scribe

Dude we agree on something! Write this date down.


You know what screw the date thing. Its a different day for you than it is for me.

I believe Barbera is trying to improve his image, but Simoncelli ....................................?

Opps wrong thread.

Why does it seem so cagey on accessing times in these Sepang tests?

Anyone else found it a bit less advertised or written about?

No times that I have seen for day 1, and I don't think yamaha or ducati even ran their test riders.

It is only just after midday in malaysia, and there do not seem to be times anywhere as yet, not even at gpone.

If you have seen pictures of the wound from his recent surgery this is hardly surprising.

I think those buckets seem to be full of something other than talent at the moment!! 16th...good start!

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (chopperman @ Feb 25 2010, 05:56 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>I agree, i cant wait to see marco on the big boys bike Tp is just scared it will be yet another rider pushing stoner further down the championship ladder

Jumkie, bite me

Rog, scared of Simoncelli? Yeah shaken in my boots. After all 16th by more than .7 to 15th is so close to knocking Stoner off. But hey he beat JL!

I reckon he will do bugger all because when you take the best bike of an Italian or Spaniard who have had the best handed to them on a platter their whole career they don't know how to dig deep like the other nationalities do.

Aren't they all the same spec at this stage anyway. He is mighty impressive either way.

You got to give him a season to get on the pace, geez he is on a new bike/team ect with no data from previous seasons to work from.

Maybe you ought to try the same before you utter your "skid kid" type anti-Stoner remarks Rog.

Gee you are weird about Stoner

Probably one of the "markers" the bookmakers look at when they come up with next seasons odds ...... "how weird are the Boppers about competitor X .... ? "

go spies
