MOTOGP » Crutchlow: I could have been fastest


@ jjthekid46 Yes, he was beaten by Dovi, but it wasn't as COMPREHENSIVELY as you put it. You make it sound like Dovi wiped the floor with him. You seem to forget that Crutchlow and Dovi had some CRACKING battles last year, and Crutchlow JUST couldn't get passed (And that against the BEST braker on the grid, BAR NONE!). You're also comparing someone in their SECOND year in MotoGP to someone in their FIFTH year, big difference there mate. Experience means a LOT in this game.

MOTOGP » Crutchlow: I could have been fastest


@ Realist Apparently, so does the Ducati... Dovi has cut the deficit to the front from 2.3sec to 1.08sec... That looks like improvement from where I'm standing?! CAL IS SUPER TALENT! Nice to see some people getting behind him at last (as, last year, all you could read about him was hate on this sight (Kinda like Sykes...)) Good luck Cal, without Casey there, will be my number one this year.

WSBK » Baz exceeds expectations on Phillip Island debut


Yeah, that's what everyone said at the beginning of last year, said there's NO WAY he'd beat Checa (Tyres just for Ducati) or Marco, he's just too good... Bla bla bla... We'll check in mid season mate. You can't compare just off the first round, the season is 15 rounds long and you're basing your entire year's prediction off the first round, which is Kwak's WORST track, with an injured rider.. Seems premature to me...

WSBK » Baz exceeds expectations on Phillip Island debut


@ prof-x I agree that control tyres suck, but I'm afraid you're ill-informed. At Brno last year Tom fought Marco ALL the way to the end. In the first race, both him and Baz were right up at the front with only the first 4/5 laps being damp. Tom's win at Russia was also dry (with the first few laps DAMP). Tom would also have been on the podium in the dry at Aragon had Badovini not taken him out. Ad to that his double dry podiums at Imola and double podiums in a dry Donnington with the dry podium at PI, we might see that the Kawasaki can well run at the front in the dry.

WSBK » Sykes: I was 80 per cent certain I wouldn't ride...


@ The Bad Guy You may be right, but from what I remember last year, Tom was struggling more with the front tyres. I also think he's had a lot of pressure on him for the last 3years. Not easy having the start he did, then having to basically lead the Kawasaki attack in 2010 (after CV's accident), then being effectively dropped by Kawasaki only for PB to extend a lifeline, then almost dropped again, all while getting good results. I think he's relatively relaxed this year in comparison. Aragon is where they have done most of their testing and where Tom is almost always on the pace. Coupled with some time to recover, we should get a good show.
