Going to miss Casey on the bikes this season. Interesting that Valentino on his new Yamaha was out qualified by his shitty old Ducati !!!
What's up Doc.

Its the results that matter, 1st Lorenzo, Yamaha, 2nd Rossi, Yamaha, 3rd Markez, Honda, not a shitty ol Ducati in sight  ;D ;D

Just watched the Qatar race after recording it. Lorenzo is an alien for sure. Just checked out and left the building. The other Elvis's stayed in the building and we saw some excellent racing. Great for the sport to see the Doctor back in the house and Marc Marquez is going to get soooooo much better real fast I would say. Poor old Dani - never mind ;D - first Casey and now the new kid :D. Bit embarrassing how Rossi got far more reaction from the crowd for 2nd place than George did for braining them by 6 seconds to win it. Guess he is still the crowd favorite  ::) Looking forward to the Texas round in 2 weeks.

No coverage over here yet, not sure if we'll get to see it without forking out 100euro to watch online & then miss a lot of the races due to shiftwork  :'(

Use a proxy server(gives you a UK ip address) and watch evrything on the BBC website ot the Ch10 website has the race live or go to Lemonsport and watch live feeds from either Romania, Spain or UK which ever is on with annoying pop ups but it be free.

from FB....Just heard that Casey Stoner was awarded the A.M. in the Queens Birthday Honours, in the ABC report , it mentions Casey's many Dirt Track and Longtrack achievments before he went to Road Racing and two World Championships in MotoGP.
A great award for a top young fella and great recognition of the part our sport plays in the development of world class talent.

Same corner no doubt they would have been from Saturday but they appear that the photographer was in different positions. The lean angles got to 67deg .....................

Tyres they would have to be the best tyres ever produced.....................until the track temps rise to much and the front deforms under braking, ergo the number of front end looses in the race. Everything else must be up there with the tyre spec, not to mention the confidence and committment you would need to push that hard

I can't wait until I see Masatoshi Ohmori in action
His lean angles are 90 degrees and back up again.

I watched it Saturday night and last night, farken unbleivable......they showed Rossi doing a stoppy on the front wheel at one corner....the back wheel must have been 300mm off the ground and he didn't put it down until half way through the corner....bike was turned and leaning.....unbelievable skill. 8)

Will he beat Randy de Puniet's 0.77 off Lorenzo's time?  ;D Great result first up.
