Is T3 the one where there is the now-annual photo of him going through the turn completely sideways on a trajectory that defies physics?  Google says it is.

It is. A fast, sweeping left hander that leads into a hairpin right. Stellar scenery too, with the Bass Straight just on the other side of it.

if you don't have a motogp.com sub they're selling a 2 for 1 deal for viewing both PI and Valencia.  15 euro, i think

That just reminds me that the end of the year is coming and my sub will expire yet again.   boo

In PI? Only if he was paralyzed from the neck down.

I hope he laps all the riders!  And we find out after the race that his traction control was accidentally turned off.


and Jorge has to pit in because he can't see through his tears.  I wonder if that's a legitimate reason to call a race?


Set that track on fire Casey!

I hope he DESTROYS the entire field at PI, as a fitting F'you goodbye to the whole MotoGP circus.
Had it not been for his injury he would have walked away with the championship this year!

While I never was a big Casey fan, I have always recognised his talent, all the more so after watching Vale pedal the Duc around the track for the last 2 years. He deserves to go out on a high note.

GO CASEY!
