MOTOGP » Simoncelli tests WSBK Aprilia.

Hope he rides Yamaha with Rossi and Lorenzo and replace Colin Edwards. Yes his riding style reminds me of Rossi's riding style as well. At any point he will get a Haircut as he grows older. I hope. I guess. And if Aprilla were to get into the Grid as well.

If you guys think that JT is gonna be claw back better positions next year you guys are in for a big surprise. The other guys will be better as well. And with some new kids in the block like Kallio, and retiree Gibernau its not going to be easy. Age is a factor. The English should reserve their enthusiasm for Bradley Smith, Scott Redding and Danny Webb to enter MotoGP. I believe riding up from 125 and 250 is better strategy than SBK.

faster and LW1 yes the english would have voted JT and Hamilton much higher than their actual results except for the rest of the world would have brought it back down a little. Yes it is JT's first year in GP but 11 th is nowhere near enough. Rossi first year was 2nd. Lorenzo fisrt year is fourth. Troy Baylis first year was 7th and 3rd 2nd year. The fans who kid themselves that he was riding on new circuits will not see it get better as those excuses not allowed next year. Those are the same excuses that Edwards not won a single GP. On the other hand while Lorenzo was competing in the Synchronised Gymnastics he did win a race and multiple pole, Podiums and finished 4th in the WC

MOTOGP » Jerez MotoGP test times - Wednesday.

@GreenEnvy 22 "Looks like Ducati has a bit of work to do, all their riders near the bottom. Nicky is at the quicker end of the Ducatis, which is good to see." No Nicky is not at the quicker end of the Ducati's. Niccolo Canepa is at the Quicker end. Lucky for him Stoner was sidelined. 2.573 secs behind Pedrosa is not really quicker. Keep Hoping. On the other hand Jorge lorenzo is not doing too bad. @Patrice Race time is difficult to compare with lap time. Your new Lap record says the top ten GP guys still ahead of the time. And Mika Kallio was almost there.

when you say trounce - means to do it on a regular basis. Valencia 2006 ,That was a Flukey. Deal with it

MOTOGP » Top ten MotoGP stars: Colin Edwards [8].

hellboy 6th, 14th and 15th in MotoGp - if that means good to you than so be it. Rossi came in 2nd in 06 and 3rd in 07. They all insisted Rossi should retire. What do you make of that. Pedrosa was 2nd 07 and 3rd 08 and even he doesn't stand a chance or so thats what they claim. His wild card in 2006 - Rossi and Pedrosa were the only guys putting up a fight. Unfortunately Rossi fell and Pedrosa had to let Hayden thru due to his overtaking mistake in Estoril and team orders from Honda. Troy Baylis had his A S S kicked in MotoGp. Go read about it. He was smart enough to get back to SBK and win more Championships unlike Edwards still fumbling in his 6th year MotoGp

MOTOGP » Top ten MotoGP stars: Colin Edwards [8].

I can't understand how Try Bayliss's one win in 2006 motogp gets him so highly rated when in actual fact Troy Bayliss was riding in Motogp and as usual was also a "also ran". 2000 : 6th World Superbike Championship - Ducati. 2001 : World Superbike Champion - Ducati. 2002 : 2nd World Superbike Championship - Ducati. 2003 : 6th MotoGP World Championship - Ducati. 2004 : 14th MotoGP World Championship - Ducati. 2005: 15th MotoGP World Championship - Honda. 2006: World Superbike Champion - Ducati. Wins Valencian Grand Prix for Ducati. 2007: 4th World Superbike Championship - Ducati. I don't see why he is so highly rated by some SBK fans thinking he will kick a s s on a regular basis

MOTOGP » Top ten MotoGP stars: Colin Edwards [8].

Mid Packer at best. You can't use his achievements of SBK or Imola 2002 to rate him currently. As soon as Yamaha endorsed him for 2009 he became Backwards. Nice guy or not has nothing to do with racing. 8th is lesser than his championship placing of 7th. I don't dislike him but this contest might see JT and NH rated higher than CS if it really is a popularity contest.

Dray if you think the english votes are gonna sway Toselands way wait till you see the rednecks sway the votes for Nicky Fayden....... Unless you are a yankee too. Here it is 3% . Thats good enough for some.

MOTOGP » Hayden leads wet Tuesday test.

Hey wolfpac Did I miss the 2009 motogp season or what. Listen its not over till its over . Infact its not even started yet. And only when the Fat Lady sings that we will know whether or not your Boy is good or a winner. So we will wait until october 2009 before I open the Champagne. About letting go of 2006. I did at the beginning of the Valencia Race in 06. Talk about 2007. Yes I have let that go too. To a guy who won 10 races with the Ducati who was 2nd year in MotoGp. And I have 10 folds respect to Casey Stoner than your 6 year veteran with 3 wins. Thats 3%. And you guys are jumping for joy. Quite an Ambitious lot. Certainly they took NH for the Marlboro sponsors. Nothing else
