<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (roger-m @ Jul 1 2009, 01:48 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>wtf ?

guess you didnt see that particular shot then .

Easy there tiger, it was just a play on the Assen race thread and Jum and Bab going at it

I thought that I would one up them both by claiming to have a visual of the desmo electronics through the hole they drilled in the fairing to release heat that was causing engine problems. It was a little of topic, please commence...

I would have thought it was pretty damn obvious by now

Irrespective of how much you and the millions of other fans hate Stoner ...... he's a pretty amazing rider, prbably the best in the field at the moment, its hard for you to accept because of your blind idolisation of Rossi thats all

probably the best in the field at the moment, yes off course he is in whinging department not in riding buddy.I have never seen a rider whinging so much about other riders getting in the way or waiting for the toe, don't get me wrong i appreciate his riding talent but best in the field, no not yet.

I actually think the current situation is interesting, in that they seem to be trying to better adapt the ducati to other riders possibly to stoner's disadvantage. I have forgotten how long he is tied to ducati but have heard little or no talk about contract renewal lately and there still seems to be some conjecture about hrc's riders for next year. Realistically you would think he had burnt his bridges with honda after his comments in 2007 about his 2006 satellite honda ride, but more recent comments have focused blame on michelin rather than honda.

He actually did beat rossi one on one in several races in 2007 and in some in 2008, which most of the other ducati riders several of whom are not untalented would probably not be expected to do even on an (arguably) superior bike, so the possibility does exist that stoner is actually quite a fast rider

You have me thinking ....... HRC buy Stoner and JB ( the dream team ) = instant dominance for the next few years ..... maybe you have a point

not if they had the money i wouldn't but i think they would struggle to afford this now. Thing is honda will have to do something radical like this if they ever want to win another wc any time soon

exactly ..... and Stoner must be the best value for money rider out there. If Stoner went, I believe JB would do it to, JB wanted Stoner on Yam, maybe he could get him on Honda?

There is always another shot for DP (Deepthroatsa) next year right??
<
I mean Hayden did it in 4 but DP should be given infinite amount of time on the #1 bike. Funny how no one calls for his seat.

That's it, Stoner to Repsol Honda, DP to Ducati. Back with Hayden

DP (double penetration) is made of glass, there's no way his pathetic little body would stay in one piece riding the duke. I think honda getting rid of dani is quite possible despite what they say

2nd 3rd ect means .... all to the big H. he aint bought the #1 plate back to hrc and he aint likely to any time soon imo.

i dont think jb would leave rossi now. i also think jb will retire when rossi does. Now that really will be a great loss to our sport. The old aussie's a bit senile but he has more world championship than anyone else on this earth and is still coming up with the goods.

He's good he just hasn't found the consistency to put an entire season together. Once he does that, he will find himself challenging for the championship. Funny thing is I don't see him riding anything but the Honda. You think that he could swap with Lorenzo and be second rider to Rossi?

I think repsol will like that if like me they consider lorenzo to be a better chance of a wc whether on a honda or yamaha. I believe DP to be a very talented fast rider but not racer. like stoner , if you let him get away up front he will put some very fast laps in and gain a distance, altho the last time he did he threw it away
<

he just aint much of a fighter imo where as jorge is. Honda need a tougher rider imo.

I would be pretty wary on that though for Spies. When a bike is developed around a midget it might not suit Ben who is a little long and lankier than most in the GP paddock.

ahhhh..... but there in lies a contract stipulation... honda must change direction & develop a bike for regular sized folk. like they had to for rossi. the age of the the half man is at an end!
