WSBK » WSBK Assen: Haslam confirmed with fractured leg


@Dare to Live “tetley, quite a hectic statement you make, but then most seem to agree with you, hope you are not saying this because you happen to be a fan of another brand.“ I’m not a fan (or a hater) of any brand in particular. I’m stating my opinion based on the age of the Fireblade design and the number of times the Ten Kate bike has ejected it’s riders in recent seasons. Trev - Unregistered “Looks to me like the same anti-Fireblade person is posting here again and again under different identities.” Most Registered users don’t feel the need for cloak-and-dagger postings. The ones with multiple identitties are invariably Unregistered posters who can use a different “handle” for each post. It is equally likely that there are pro-Fireblade posters using multiple identitties.

MOTOGP » Austin MotoGP: Crutchlow close to Lorenzo


@Roman "A lot of brits talk him up but it's no different than the yanks talking up Hayden." And what is wrong with supporting fellow countrymen? With a name like "Roman" can you honestly say you don't support Italian riders? British Boxing Champion Henry Cooper summed it up when he said " When you fight in Italy you have to knock 'em out to get a draw." Ciao, baby.

@shamarone April 22, 2013 7:50 PM re: "Yam improvements on the way the T3 seat may be his preferred option, providing that they guarantee him up-to-date factory equipment. This would effectively make YamGP a 3-rider factory team" wait, and who's paying for this...? " Yamaha will have to foot the bill for Cal's signature. If they don't stump up the cash then other teams will take Cal from them. Cal would be such an asset to any team- I just hope Ducaudi don't win the auction.

On a works Yam Cal would be as fast as JLo. Cal fights harder than JLo, so beating JLo would be inevitable, and a win for Cal would be highly probable. Rossi is the key. If 2013 is good to him he will stay at YamGP- their partnership is mutually beneficial to their status and profile. If VR doesn't have a good year Yam may "transfer" VR46, maybe to WSBK? VR may be happy with that, or he may retire. Either scenario is possible. If VR46 goes, Cal deserves his seat. If a works seat doesn't happen at Yam, a Honda works ride is a possibility. But Honda already have MM93, their new Messiah, so they need someone to support, not challenge him, so maybe DP26's seat is safe after all. A satellite Honda may be an option for Cal, but with Yam improvements on the way the T3 seat may be his preferred option, providing that they guarantee him up-to-date factory equipment. This would effectively make YamGP a 3-rider factory team, just as Honda and Ducati are now effectively 4-rider factory teams.

MOTOGP » HAVE YOUR SAY: Name your Austin maestro!


MM93 was phenomenal. “They” said Marc might not have the stamina, but after the race it was Dani who said his arms were sagging. Marc may be a comparative novice, but he made a better tyre choice than Dani. In the early stages when Dani's soft rear tyre had better grip than Marc’s hard rear tyre, Marc had no difficulty keeping up. When Dani had used up his grip, Marc left him in the dust. Great decision. Phenomenal ride. Cal's performance was amazing, bringing his satellite bike home in front of so many works bikes. And without any testing at COTA. Yamaha need to get Cal’s name on a contract and his h**** on a factory bike as swiftly as they can. Honda would sign him just to keep his talent away from Yamaha. Dani must be realising that his works Honda days are running out.

MOTOGP » Austin MotoGP: Rossi set to go second on-time start list


G.O.A.T means Greatest Of ALL TIME. Those posters who limit their references to pre-2010, or just 2011 and 2012, or any other band of time cannot, by definition, be discussing the greatest of ALL TIME, therefore their opinions are irrelevant to the topic of G.O.A.T. When Colin Edwards christened VR46 the G.O.A.T he was in a far better position to make that declaration than any of the Rossi-knockers here. The most effective way to lose the Rossi-knockers is simply to ignore them and not rise to their bait. (Spot the subtle fishing analogy there?). Logical debate is wasted on those whose opinions are pre-formed and set in stone(r).

WSBK » WSBK Aragon 2013: Brake woes hamper Haslam progress


While JRea keeps believing Honda's promises for "speed tomorrow" his career is ebbing away. I don't know how much he's paid but it isn't enough. Right now he should be talking to other teams for his 2014 ride. BMW would be ideal, but it looks like they aleady have a keen team. Leon Haslam is a top bloke and very fast on his day, but is he just too "nice" , too comfortable with his life ? It's sad, but I'm doubting that he has a Championship left in him.

BSB » BSB Thruxton 2013: Jacobsen in front row coup


" Brookes, meanwhile, was bullish in his assessment of his chances, declaring he could 'beat anyone around here from anywhere on the grid'. Earlier I posed the question "Brookes- is he becoming a bit too gobby this year?" I now know the answer- "Yes he is". I hope his outbursts do not signal a return to the days when he broke Guintolis legs, and took out Rutter at Cadwell. Josh has everthing going for him right now- successful established team, NW200 and TT entries- I hope he doesn't pee on his own chips.
