MOTOGP » Michelin considers one tyre bid.

Well Michelin can supply Tires to "Tour De France" for all I care. It was Michelin that was Responsible for VR loss 2007 at least. But realistically One tire rules look like Rider skills is the one that us fans want to see instead of the riders spending too much time in the set up. At least it evens out the playing field a little. Do Fans really know what shoes Usain Bolt was wearing or just want to see him Dash. Tell you what I do if I am the CEO of Michelin I will sell off all my shares, Go over to japan and buy over Bridgestone Company and I will supply tires to MotoGp "BRIDGELINS" or "Michestones" jokes over Unfortunately Tires seem to be the critical part of Bike development

MOTOGP » MotoGP 2009 - confirmed signings.

Unless they are willing to get their A S S whooped on TV by losing regularly and be regular backmarkers. They are not flexible enough from their mind sets to Design and Development. At least the Japanese Honda is trying in the F1. Harley Davidson's engine looks the same to me from eons ago and they are more interested in promoting the Hippie Culture instead and supplying the same engines. Yawn. Triumph has some good sports bikes. Maybe the new 600cc will bring in more involvment. Don't understand why Aprila is not into it.

MOTOGP » Lorenzo: I am riding so fast!

Jorge Lorenzo is Awesome. There is a very good possibility for him to be 2nd in the Championship too if either CS or DP make a mistake. Yes Heir apparent to Valentino Rossi. Its either him or Marco Simoncelli. Goooooooo Laorenzo

MOTOGP » Official: Dovizioso to Repsol Honda.

Here is the story on Giveupnau = unemployment Ducati just used him to develop for CS after season started they were going backwards with CS's development New twist in Sete Gibernau’s comeback saga Matthew Birt, 24 September 2008 09:24 Sete Gibernau’s planned shock return to MotoGP action in 2009 has taken another twist, with Kawasaki now suddenly rumoured to be back in the frame for the Spaniard’s signature. Gibernau had seemed a cast iron certainty to make his comeback with a new Ducati squad backed by Onde 2000 and run by Spanish legend Angel Nieto and his sons.

MOTOGP » Motegi - Free practice times (2).

Sorry Negative, Will try. But the guy has been biatching about the bike was built for Dani Pedrosa when it is actually not. In 2007 it was decided that they will drop it to 800cc from the 990cc. Realistically all the bigger riders should go on a diet and lose weight instead of complaining that the bike was built for a dwarf. I dont see anything wrong with the bike at INDY and at the Motegi Practice. Why keep complaining when you are a world champion. Ride it out. If you Dare change Tires. Or change bikes. Don't keep complaining and still stick to Honda. we dont hear Ant West complaining about bike or tires. The pneumatic Honda seems to run fine even for Nakano. Such a woose

MOTOGP » Motegi - Free practice times (1).

yamalossy a neat idea will be to have both the windows open side by side during qualifying . Sometimes the green and red arrows are easier to digest as the full version has too much data in it. and the green version's clock runs earlier. the full version lets you analiye who went back to the pit for adjustments or Qualifying tire change/ crashed out as the lap times becomes longer

MOTOGP » Motegi - Free practice times (2).

FP2 looks like its back to normal. Looks like NH spring Boarded backwards to his normal position. All things fine nothing to report here. Hope JL will spring back up in Contention HEY GUYS STOP DOING THAT TOP LINE BOTTOM LINE. Now see what you have done Dani is up on top. Can you all do a top line on Vale on race day.

MOTOGP » Motegi - Free practice times (1).

@Yammalossy There is a Black strip below that says "Live Timing Full Version". You click on that and that shows all the lap times and all the riders. Try to get on that earlier as towards the Qualifying you will not be able to log on as the server gets busy.

MOTOGP » Japanese Grand Prix - Preview.

Its Michelins company practices that don't allow sharing of knowledge/Choice of tires among riders must be the reason of poor development and feedback that they have ended up crapping on themselves. whereas Bridgestones allows knowledge/choice of tires to riders during practice and race. While they are at the One Tire Control they should also do away with the "Stupid" Qualifying Tires to allow the Qualifying Grid and Race Pace to be similar. And the other rule of deciding the Race tires on a Thursday(I think) for a sunday race is ridiculous. Dorna must have had a meeting in a Tapas Bar at the wee hours of the morning to come up with that one.The Michelins were cut in LS 4 poor Tire choice

MOTOGP » Ducati heads for 'special circuit'.

@Dr. David Kelly You the new kid on the block. Maybe not. You probably go by a different name. See you after the race. And just who do you support for the Motegi Race win. CASEY STOBERNAU. "You call that Racing, We'll see racing" Hahaha
