Nice of you to give Tissot a shout out.


 


Prediction: A factory Honda or Yamaha to win. Most likely the factory Honda.
 
Marquez will win the title here. Hopefully the weather will be nice for the benefit of the fans.


 


Prediction: Me getting a hard on watching some slides through Turn 3.
 
I predict (pie in the sky hope more than anything), Bradl to be medically unfit & Stoner to wildcard for his old team.


 


 
 
The Kentucky Squid to finish behind a CRT, hopefully 2 or more...... not talking about crashing out either, but I guess I wouldn't mind if he did, so long as he doesn't get hurt.  See, I'm not THAT mean.  :smile3:
 
Marc will eat .... multipule times at high speed this weekend.  This track is so flowy and fast, he will cook more than a few corners.  And if deemed fit to ride, he will still take home the title.

By Christ, Hayshed's the most fearsome and awe inspiring turn of the year.


 


Best circuit on the calendar IMO.

Somebody needs to update that track graphic and include Stoner's corner.

So who's sponsoring this shindig anyway?


 


I predict Marky Mark won't win the championship.


 


 


 


 


 


....at Philip Island.


 


I also predict a lot of people are going to fall off. Hope they're ok.
 
Tissot... more like Tossoff... Over Marc when he wins the title on Sunday.


 


Which commentator will blow his load first?

Julian Ryder. Listening to that gimp commentating is like being trapped in a room with a teenage girl bubbling in the gusset for a new boy band.

He is about that way for every rider who wins. You guys across the pond are spoiled. If you had to listen to what we have for bike racing commentators, you would beg for Julian Rider.. Luckily, we get the Euro feed. If we didnt,, i would watch the race muted.

LOL!


 


Aren't you thinking of Toby Moody?  :)

Ryder is the braying ..., Moody is the one the causes whales to beach themselves and dogs to run in circles.

Well, that would make sense, as you already "watch" with your eyes closed.


 


 


jk, you're right.  Scott Russell, I like him but FFS, learn some English.  (I'm not even gonna talk about the other clowns, as I don't want to ruin my day.)
 
First impressions: .... Phillip Island is beautiful!



Second impression: .... Phillip Island is beautiful.


I particularly enjoyed the on board laps. Dudes on the gas all around, big balls. I wish all the riders had a factory RCV or M1 at their disposal. All these riders deserve for their talents to be on display at this special circuit. Sadly only four got the tools, really lamentable.
 
As i expected, lap times have already dipped well below last year, and are close to track record set with q tires in 08.
