:rofl::thumbup:

All said in joust :rolleyes:

It wouldn't be the same without him. There was never this much talk about MotoGP before Lance's comments started:thumbup:.

All

I'm sure we all agree that a bit of banter and debate is good fun and more interesting that us all just nodding in agreement.:cool:

But please all remember that I've been right for two years running now and therefore far more educated in Motorcycle Racing than those that have debated my facts with all your opinions.:P

Lance

On 1 occasion, "being right" meant that 2 racers lost to an accountant who's not looked like winning a title since, and on the other Michelin themselves admitted publically that they could have done a better job.

Won't argue with that, BUT most of my facts have been mainly based on the excellent Eurosport coverage. And at the end of the day those boys are serious anoraks AND have all the insider information, that can & can't be published ;):thumbup:

Stoner does look like a cracked man this year. Great to seen Marco back up the front end :)

Yawn:cool:

Hopefuly Jeremy Burgess's comments saying that they've managed to make the Yamaha now work with the Bridgetsones, will prove me right in what i've been saying all along......

that the guy has won 7 (Thats SEVEN!!!!) World Championships. He aint a Mug so i dont think he'd make any decisions without thinking he could make it work.

Update on Lorenzo's ankle injuries

Having flown straight back to Spain on Sunday night following his stunning ride to fourth place in Shanghai last weekend, Fiat Yamaha Team rider Jorge Lorenzo visited the Dexeus Institue in Barcelona on Monday morning for further examination by world-renowned specialist Dr. Xavier Mir.

Dr. Mir, who had only operated on Lorenzo two weeks ago to relieve compartmental syndrome in his right forearm, was keen to carry out his own diagnosis on the injuries sustained during free practice for the Grand Prix of China, which the Clinica Mobile had treated to great effect in Shanghai in order to allow Lorenzo to ride.

The injuries were confirmed to be slightly worse than first thought, especially to the right ankle, which was originally thought to have escaped fracture. A 3D CAT scan of both ankles revealed the following further injuries:

- Fracture of the Astragalus in the right ankle (no displacement)

- Torn lateral internal ligament in the left ankle

Treatment now consists of a solid cast for Lorenzo’s right ankle and an elastic support for his left, temporarily confining him to a wheelchair. "Next Monday we will carry out more tests and make a detailed evaluation of the injuries suffered to both ankles,” commented Doctor Mir.

Lorenzo lies second in the MotoGP World Championship after taking a victory, a second place, a third and a fourth from the opening four rounds. He now faces a battle to be fit for the next chapter of his incredible rookie story - the Grand Prix of France at Le Mans on 18th May.

Steve Parish talks a load of B0ll0x, Watch the races on Eurosport, at least they have a clue..... Go Rossi for the rest of the season!!!!

I've no idea what all that means, however it don't sound too good..........The man has done brilliantly in his debut races in MotoGP, lets hope he makes a full & quick recovery.

He really deserves a fair crack at the title:thumbup:

These guys are certainly no wuzzes - mere mortals would be laid up for weeks with some of their injuries and they get up and carry on batting away - often on the next day (as with Lorenzo) :thumbup:

This is exactly why it always makes me laugh when footballers roll around after a little bump. Now they are wuzzes.....strange word to spell that one?

I like Stavros partly because he sometimes talks ballcocks, but funny ballcocks! :D

Best wishes to Jorge for a speedy recovery!

And I agree totally with you about Chavballers rolling about in agony after spraining their haircuts Lance! ;) BTW, I think the word is spelt "wusses".

I'm sorry I didna ken that one.

I just saw a headline on the MotoGP web site stating 'Rossi's triumph in China'.

Why has he changed teams?:o

Now it's certain he won't win again!!
