faithfull fans eh - i salute you

vive rossi

I guess it's good for the sport we have a new champ. I'm really happy for Hayden. I think almost anyone expected Rossi to win the title. I did too..
In the end you can say Nicky deserves the title, cause a guy like Rossi shouldnt crack under pressure in this stage of the championship. He had the 8 point lead and he ws on pole. I really cant believe he made that mistake, but it happened and Hayden did what he had to..therefore the american deserves it.

Congrats Nicky!!!!!!!!

i second this!

well i must say that i would have never thought to see the day when valentino rossi let the pressure get to him! i was stunded when he fell off. just not what we are all are use to seeing. i must admit in all honesty i thought is was over after estoril but man if the term " it's racing & anything can happen" were ever truer than these last 2 rounds. it aint over till the fat lady sings! stellar peformance from troy bayliss. that was just awesom. bet richo is goin ape ....! loris cappirosi secures 3rd & gives ducati a 1-2 finish to end a great season. pedrosa did what he had to do, be the team player & set up to block for nicky. kudos to him my faith is restored in dani, i don't know about puig, but definatly dani. got to give it to rossi tho he is a gracious loser & when he stopped to congratulate nicky it was total class. he's still the best but it just was'nt his year. & finally congratulations to nicky hayden as 2006 motogp world champion! GOOD NIGHT IRENE THIS WAS A DAMN GOOD SEASON!!!!!!!!

Cant believe it but hey that is racing. It wasnt the show i was expecting. Congrats to Nicky.

I think we all were stunned to see Rossi make a mistake. I was really shocked. I guess Rossi is human after all

You're right..he's indeed a gracious loser. I think it was a great gesture of him to congratulate Nicky. That's the way it should be imo. You gotta take both the losses and the wins in a gracious way to be a great champ and we all know Rossi is a great champ.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE <div class='quotemain'>we all know Rossi is a great champ.

hopefully he will be next season

loyalty is a good thing!

Man I'mm gutted.

I knew somthing bad was going to happen, I could just see it happening.

But big congrats to Hayden. Even though he got kocked down last race he still managed to pull it of. But Baylis, What can i say but wow?

i had a bad feeling about this race for Rossi but im really glad Bayliss won and i wanted him to win anyway, but today he was just awesome!

Gotta say after today Nicky deserves it. He is probably the most dedicated guy out there so it's great to see him win a world title..

It was interesting to see what happened to Rossi today. The thing is he's never been in a champiosnhip fight thats gone down to the wire.. he's always won it 2 or 3 races before.. i guess the pressure just got to him

It'll be interesting to see how things pan out after this for Rossi and Hayden.. I'm not sure Rossi will ever be the same again, his confidence might just have taken a huge knock.. whereas for Hayden things can get better..

Just to add.. great win for Troy thats really been overshadowed.. although i think had it not been the last race of the season Capirossi and Hayden would have put more pressure on him..

On the downside.. what the hell do we do for the next 6 months?

I saw it coming...

Loris got 3rd in the championship
Baylis was fantastic.... a ducati 1-2... so nice too see

So Hayden is the World Champ... he settled with 3rd .... so safe and yet once again he didn't had to fight for the champ... everything got sorted out without hayden fighting for victory..... once more...

Hats off to him... and many congrats to him...and I think this is also a big luck for pedrosa... the estoril inccident will be forgoten and will not have to worry about a hayden's fan paid killer standing behind him anymore


HAYDEN
ROSSI
CAPIROSSI

Nice podium in the end of a spectacular season... huh to bad it is over

tbh I find it hard to beleive that it was his confidence what went.... He has won it 7 time already!!

But to me it looked like he wasn't botherd about winning and just wen't down cause he wasn't fully aware

wow, what a great round... in the 250.. the way Alex Debon defended Lorenzo was amazing... and I was hoping to see Dani protecting Nicky when Dani let Nicky passed..then Rossi crashed... I hated to see Rossi crashed, I also hated to see Nicky crashed but I guess it all even out.. A fantastic race win for Troy.. man he is on fire! Congrats to Honda, Nicky and Dani for being a great teammate when it mattered. Congrats to Jorge!! I can't wait to see him rough with Dani in 08!

I CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED IT

WELL DONE NICKY! I CANT EXPLAIN HOW GOOD IT FEELS

Believe it or not I had a feeling Rossi would fall off.

well done nicky

cant believe what happened to rossi.. did he have a problem or was it nerves???

and to those who vilified dani after estoril guess what... didnt make a damn bit of difference cos nicky still won!! like many said racing is racing and .... happens! who would have predicted rossi sliding off crashey style!!

speaking of crashey.. how many races has he finished this year?? bet ducati wished they'd waited till the end of the season to sign a new rider.. especially after bayliss' performance today! fantastic!! great ride from both the dukes!

i cant believe the season is over now! its been great to watch and great to discuss with you guys on here!

here's to 2007 being even better!
