MOTOGP » Austin MotoGP: Rossi defensive sixth, 'lost part of a disc'


@ Vicarious I disagree. I believe that fairness and objectivity comes down to the individual intelligence level of the person/people doing the critiquing. Many people here are both fair and objective, but most are not (..and those are the people that we largely disregard or don’t take serious). Looking at it objectively, Pedrosa and Lorenzo (..and Marquez as he begins his ascent in the premier class) have also been “afforded the same benefits” by landing factory rides out of the box. They’ve also put in work in the lower classes to deserve what they’ve been given. P.S. LOL @ the snake oil comment. No kidding right!?

MOTOGP » Austin MotoGP: Crutchlow close to Lorenzo


@ 99 I think Rossi running out of fuel was the less common of the two situations (..as we can see that Lorenzo did not). It might have been the level at which he was pushing, or it could have been a team strategy. Who knows?!! I guess my only point was to settle the "debate" about his engine being the same. I do agree with your assessment that the engine management may affect performance in some circumstances, but as illustrated again at COTA, Crutchlow has the package to do the business.

MOTOGP » Austin MotoGP: Dovizioso edges Bautista showdown


@ jambop Before you guys flame jambop (..because I know the Rossi haters will), take the time to listen to the question that he's asking. He makes a point. I'd bet that the bike feels better to Dovi because certain aspects of it have been made more comfortable by Rossi's involvement (..not to be confused with "sorted out", "fixed", "made into a championship contender", etc.). It is merely a bit easier for a front-end rider to ride now.

MOTOGP » 2013 MotoGP World Championship standings


@ Paradox It's a long, long season. I just choose not to speak out of turn. Nobody would have predicted Pedrosa's phenomenal run the last 8 or so races of last season, but it happened. To write off somebody like Rossi (or any of the top 4) is just really, really premature, ESPECIALLY when it is rather obvious that he can run the pace. People calling Qatar a fluke are just being silly. @ Sete You'll likely eat the "never win another race" words come the end of the season. We shall see.
