Espargaro could still win this season pretty easily, he just needs to start beating Redding. Nakagami on the other hand really deserves a GP seat next year as well. That guy is easily the fastest moto2 rider this year, just lacking in consistency.

Agreed, I know he is good for business, but he is meant to be winning races, and where is this sponsor he was bringing on board.

He won at Assen, been on the podium several times this season as well... Can't win them all. Probably has some tobacco sponsor behind the scenes, can't plaster tobacco company logos on the bike anymore though, Ducati still has Marlboro as a sponsorship for example.
This race for me was very good but the camera direction was very bad. Marc and Jorge are very close and they cut to Bradl riding by himself, then they show Dovi and Hayden and Smith battling it out and then they cut to the grandstands. I see some others here feel the same way about this and it[s very frustrating. I bet they are doing it on purpose so people by the multi-screen pack on motogp.com, but they aren't getting my money!
Jorge rode the wheels off of that M1. After Marquez passed him I thought ...., it's over. Then Marc went like 1cm too wide and Jorge put his wheels on the rumble strips and somehow got the bike to stick and turn and Marquez's jaw probably dropped to the floor after that incredible move.

How the fucc is that being selective? He compared your clown hero to another rider on the same bike.

However you spin it Rossi has won a Motogp race, had several podiums and has always been top four-five in 2013, his 18th year in the top classes of world motorcycle racing.
At Assen he beat the field, including Marc who is currently the championship leader. The last time I checked winning a Motogp race is a big ....... deal, so you were being selective, simple.

It has been my observation that the virtues of a race win seem to vary with the identity of the winner.
I would actually agree that Rossi is still worth his place btw, and obviously that nothing can detract from his past achievements. Yamaha except for when Rossi and Lorenzo were team mates seem to have difficulties with providing equipment for their 2nd factory rider, and the current situation does perhaps partly illustrate why Rossi wanted to be in charge of development. I can't see anyone else doing better than Rossi on that bike currently, other than perhaps Dani and MM, and the bike might even suit the former more than the latter.
