MOTOGP » Hayden: Home fifth as hard as a win

Hayden did a very good qualifying, but has only really moved up 2 positions, having trouble holding off Elias on the horrible honda leased bike....

Goes to show how the electronics rule and how much about Hayden using less electronics, likes it"loose" & bla bla is utter BS.

The fact is Hayden has only won at LS and has not come close to wiffing the podium out of 12 riders... 5th is not a bad result, but...

The ring should be another "boost" as it is lefties..we shall see if LS was just a home result or not.I dont think Hayden will best a 5th for the rest of the season..more like 8th-10th,which was I predicted at the start of the season (never thought he would be running 12th)..

Well done Nicky! You look like Captain America or some other DC comic super hero.

Credit to Hayden, he totally exceeded my expectations...but as the poet said 'one swallow does not make a summer' and as Kenlucky quite rightly points out maybe something similar at Indy then it's business as usual, ie. playing tail end Charlie.

On a positive note to my American buddy's, now I am no tennis fan but I was mightily impressed with Andy Roddick's performance at Wimbledon. The guy was immense, a true credit to his country. Hayden could learn a lot from this man.

Kenlucky kid, get your facts straight before you make claims. Nicky also won at Assen in 2006.

GreenEnvy 22 get your facts right Flukey was gifted the win at Assen 2006

You just make me sick!
Assen 2006- Nicky makes move on Colin, then Colin stayed on the road just because the asphalted run-off area. So please tell me:
who the fu** had more luck in that race? Colin should be off a lap before and Nicky takes clear win. So gtfo.

Kenlucky Kid- tell me, whats the biggest achievement of your life?? Your parents buying You computer that allowes You trolling here?

well desmofan you beat me to it i to would like to come clean i'm gay too! want to hook up?
and does anyone know how to get into the rental market if you get my drift

Mmmm he's pleased with 5th and yet the best part of 10 seconds off a guy who is as sick as a dog and falling back. There was now way he was gonna catch the leading group, Keep dreaming Nicky

"having trouble holding off Elias on the horrible honda leased bike.... "

Well, Elias gets factory support, and a factory Honda won, so it is neither a pure-customer/lease bike, nor horrible. But as the least objective person on the whole bloody site, I'd not expect anything more reasonable from you. What a ****er.

bukalaki you are so utterly clueless it is just plain pathetic. Edwards was leading and Hayden did a desperado pass on Edwards and went, of course wide..in fact OFF the track. Edwards seeing his first evar did a PS2 mistake cutting the corner so hard he ran into the grass and turning it in! Of course crashing into what is perhaps the biggest bonehead move EVER in GP racing history. While Hayden actually motored through the light gravel in the most comical style.

Aside from the fact, that out of LS Hayden NEVER EVER battled for the lead-before or after (or Edwards for that matter)- after all half field was injured.Watch it in youtube moroon.
