Lorenzo: I understand the risks.

Damage to both ankles during the Spaniard's huge Friday practice highside will take months to fully heal, but with seven races in the next ten weeks Lorenzo - who has been confined to a wheelchair ever since his return from China - will be forced to brave the pain, and risk further injury, time and time again if he is to keep his title hopes alive.

Balls as big as Church bells!!

I give Lorenzo a lot of credit for riding injured but I believe he's exaggerated the extent of his injuries. Because if he was seriously injured he'd have a more difficult time transfering his weight (i.e. weighting pegs) from one side to other in turns. The pressure on his ankles and lower legs would be significant to diminish his ability to turn even with drugs. Based on the Shanghai race he didn't appear to have too much of problem turning the bike.

Yeyeyeyeh, Marc, can't believe you hate Lorenzo that much...

So did you already jump off the running van, knees and ankles first and next got on a GSXR 1000 and ran less than 7:30 on the Nürburgring?

No? Bet your still full throttle armchairing

Have a beer and relax in front of the China GP video where Lorenzo almost ran into Stoner and learn how a champ rides

(No heart feelings : just a joke)

I respect Lorenzo.

But risks? Talk to some Irish Road Racers, guys like Bruce Anstee, Cameron Donald or Ian Hutchinson. They will tell you what taking risks is all about.
