MotoGP Rnd 3: Jerez (Yup...thar be spoilers here laddies.)

[gm2]

I don't see a "payback" from JLo either.

nah.  he already conceded that he made a mistake.  and he's grown up a lot since the 250 days.  he'll just go out there and be fast.


and so will pedro.

MM has replaced Stoner in my heart

[BastrdHK]

I understand the debate, put anyone who says that Marquez is not the infusion of talent, attitude and SHEER WILL TO WIN GP has needed for years.  He combines the same abilities Stoner had on the bike with a determination to beat you for 2nd or 7th of Bayliss or Foggy....this kid is the real deal! 

I don't care, everybody at the top has been too chummy over the last 3 years.....now MM is stirring the pot and getting people fired up.....this is racing!

I hope Lorenzo rolls his sleeves up, I think he has another level, MM might just bring it out of both he and Pedrosa.  I want to see real emotion, real pressure that forces mistakes and makes every decision count from free practice through Sunday.

It was awesome. He gets around the corner the same way Casey used to -- sliding the rear right at the apex--but the way MM does it, it shows up on camera more obviously.  Well, it was really obvious when Casey did it on the Ducati (it looked like he was going to crash every turn right between apex and exit), and little less so on the Honda.  But MM really lets the rear loose, and doesn't seen to give a fack.  It's soooo much fun to watch.  It's really obvious during the on-board shots.  They have me wincing the entire time cuz I'm CERTAIN he's going down.  But he's not.  I'm a fan.  

+1 to that

It was awesome watching their riding styles contrast with each other

[koko64]

MMs style certainly reminded me of Stoner in some ways (from the couch anyway). It was a good race from the point of view of seeing how each rider with their individual styles also had to ride the different bikes in a certain way at that track

I have never seen the Yams which normally turn so well, struggle to keep a line and run wide on the exit

Same corner, different day:

Jorge Lorenzo VS Joan Olive Copa Aprilia il passato che ritorna

[Raux]

Confused me.  which one was lorenzo

[Triple J]

Confused me.  which one was lorenzo

The one who did the knocking down.

[Spidey]

Confused me.  which one was lorenzo

Lorenzo was Marquez.   

[Raux]

The one who did the knocking down.

so everyones' talk about Karma is backward... Lorenzo got his 

[koko64]

True.

How many fathers have advised their sons :

"don't drink too much"
"dont speed"
"avoid fights"
"respect the law"
"treat her right"
 

Spose Jorge grew up.

[Jester]

Confused me.  which one was lorenzo

Remember that Jorge used to be 48.

[gm2]

go watch, ehh.. ALL of his 250 races.

[ZLTFUL]

go watch, ehh.. ALL of his 250 races.

Yup. Pretty much why I put him in the same dickbag category as Marquez. Stonkin' fast or not...doesn't change the dickbag factor.

Second to last sentence made me LOL --
