I can't believe this isn't up yet, as the GOD is supposed to make his miraculous comeback.

I sure hope the Germans aren't still all butthurt by the beatdown we gave them in the WC and sabotage Lorenzo's bike. Would't put it past them.

There's no way I would bet against Rossi being leaving us all dumbstruck. I hope he does well and has an exciting battle with Lorenzo, only to come up short in the end for a riveting 2.

I hope Rossi punts that smug little jerk off the racetrack

I think Rossi rides up front and towards the end of the race falls back of the pace. I wouldn't put it past him to podium, but I doubt he'll win. If he does, then he is truly Superman.

[Jester]

Since Germany is mostly nascar turns, I think he has a shot at a podium if he doesn't fall off the pace due to not being fully fit ( in general, not because of the leg ).

Let's hope he doesn't hurt his leg in the process

Laguna the week after might be tougher.

if you can't see this.. yes, he's using those crutches.  sorta.  he can also stand and walk without them.

and he's going to make a 2011 announcement after Brno.

[Speeddog]

What version of *walk* was he doing?

Normal or hurts like a sumpregnant dog?
