Rossi after his Valencia fall, 2006: "When you fall, is always a mistake..."
Stoner after his Misano fall, 2008: "The tyre just let go"

No matter how much I want to like Stoner, I just cannot. He doesn't help at all.

Yeah, Lorenzo could maintain Rossi's pace all along the race without faultering. I believe that Michelin aren't quite as bad as Pedrosa&Puig's propaganda might imply, it's just that they fumbled two races in a row (and in Laguna a bit justified since temperatures were nowhere near last year's) in a crucial point of the championship.

Jimmy don't bother. If some Stoner fans need to resort to this kind of stuff then they only admit utter defeat.

Yesterday, the greek TV commentator said that he conveyed information about Dani's switch to Bridgestone from some Dunlop guys (!) while adding that Dunlop follow very closely what is currently happening in MotoGP. Interesting methinks...

Michelin don't need any sympathy. They had a full year and the some to adapt themselves to the new rules. From a wider perspective, bar Laguna and Brno, Michelin didn't actually fare that bad this year. Pedrosa and Lorenzo were actually very competitive and it was mostly their injuries that ruled them out of the game. What I see is some HRC officials in a dark office being very angry they are no more at the top of the game. They are desperate and feel like tearing down everything possible in order to regain their crown. They will try to stir things as much as needed until the game gets to their liking again, so that's why we see so much behind-the-scenes activity regarding new rules.

wak- I don't think Ducati will sack him, they know he is still young and inexperienced and they surely know his potential which indeed is great. Maybe they'll just give him a good talking to. Besides that, they don't really have many other alternatives to a really competitive rider. The only ones I see is Rossi-already signed to Yamaha, Lorenzo-signed to Yamaha at least for next year, Pedrosa- A Honda child, and maybe Dovizioso- probably in HRC for the next 2 years. Given the above, Ducati would be absolute fools to sack their best hope for titles.

Yeah, Puig in particular is like the neurotic over-protective mother that pushes her kid to greater acheivements only to satisfy her own ambitions. The most ridiculous thing he's asked is for separate pit-boxes with HRC's other bike, if Dovizioso rides it!

Don't worry, a month ago the front chain sprocket nut got loos on my Suzuki and I got a heavy squirt of hot engine oil all over the rear wheel. Thank god a mate of mine was behind me and saw the blue smoke cloud that erupted...

Oscar- yes, this would be the perfect time to fire-up to life Ago's 33-year old bike now. Pity that the time I'm writing this TV broadcast has stopped and I didn't get to see any of it nor do I know if it really happened.

Yeah, it's good that Lorenzo was somewhere behind him, maybe he learned something :)
