I agree. Looks like they're going to have to catch him first though!

Not to mention that the big boys know how to swap paint too. It's just we so rarely get to see it because, well, you know.....

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

funny...someone else brought something else to mind that I wasn't thinking that will make a difference too...

Critics, of course, might be hearing the crisp voice of four time world champion Eddie Lawson in their head. Lawson said frequently the real test of a GP rider wasn't his ability to go fast initially, but to go fast after his first cloud-scraping highside—when the reality of what can go wrong is inside your psyche and won't ever leave.

Marquez has had a couple bad crashes. The one at the end of last season comes to mind. He'll be fine mentally I think.

Yup. Fully expect him to come top 3 next season and win a championship before Pedrobot.

And yes, he is a douche, but he's a fast little douche. Let's see how well he does after high siding like Lorenzo.

Fixed it for ya.

He's gonna make Bautista look like a surgeon.

Top 3 for Marquez this season is possible, but a long shot I'd say. I think he'd need Rossi to have a bad season. I expect JLo, Pedrobot, and Rossi the Whiner to round out the top 3.

I also think Pedrobot has a good chance at winning the championship. He looked very strong at the end of this season. Might be now or never for him, and he probably knows that.
