MOTOGP » Melandri suffers 'demanding' debut

it may not be easy to predict how melandri will do: he is built similar to capirossi ( height, weight ), but they do have different riding styles; and again probably melandri's style more similar to capirossi's then stoners. On the other hand - fresher to the switch from the 250's melandri may adapt much faster;
if we see capirossi's riding during the last season: he was definitely producing some really good results as the season was approaching the end - first half not so good, but the last few races it almost looked like he was getting to adapt to the bike then and was becoming more consistent and better and better.

I love reading all your comments they can be informative as well as at the same time be good for a laugh but I have a question for JETFX whats HorHay?

Jorge Lorenzo

Thanks Gina. I would never have guessed that and I had been trying to before asking, I dont get it though, HorHay = Jorge Lorenzo how??? I am more confused now than I was before.

spanish language partially. "hay " should be "gay"...

Thanks Gina Hee Hee. Im not sure if I like Lorenzo or not yet but all the bad stuff written about him is putting me right off so gay is he.

have to say ..me too, not sure how is he going to form and what is he going to turn into next year; have a feeling he'll lose lots of his conquered lorenzolands. remembering pedrosa in the 250's - him ( and stoner with the worse bike ) were in pedrosa's shadow most of the time..so not sure if he is that good and how will he combine with the bike and tyres . kind of confusing. a bit like his name...

M- HorHay is how the correct english translation of Jorge sort of 'sounds' when spoken.....
I like him cause Rossi dosen't, hmmm means hes obviously insecure around the bloke for some reason??? the whole seperate pits and gay thing has me wondering though

Aint the 08 season going to be a riot

Lorenzo - has personality. not sure if he sees racing bigger than himself which is a great strength, ...but at least he's honest when expressing his emotions.

2008 is going to be huge. Look at the factory Yamaha team with 2 of the biggest egos ever seen in sport.

I will predict fireworks next year, and I think Jorge will come out on top. I dont think Rossi will be trying the same stunts behind closed doors as he did with Biaggi. Rumour has it the boy is quiet handy with his fists.
