Nice sig line g...

The first possibility seems the most likely...

[duccarlos]

I'm not sure if he can count on Pedrosa for this weekend. The Turd might still be bitter about the punting that he might either win the race or let Lorenzo finish second just to piss off the kid.

I think #93 is going to look a lot like #27, lurid slides disappearing into the distance.

Where is the "Like" button when you need it?

- Marquez wins and Lorenzo finishes third or lower

i don't think this is that far fetched.  georgina will try to clear off, but barring that
 - dani no doubt feels like he needs to finish 2013 the way he did 2012 and
 - while i grant you that it's much less likely these days, valentino really likes PI. 

you never know.

or lorenzo crashes.  that's rare, but you know he's gonna arrive already pissed off.

Or, Lorenzo in a fit of pique, pushes too hard in order to keep MM at bay and takes them both out.

At this point, with the way Lorenzo is acting... I dont see that as too far of a possibility.  He always says he rides with a good margin or error... but I think he's starting to rethink that margin.  Watching this kid ignore him would make me think "Well, fine, lets play it his way"

Lorenzo can't afford another DNF. He needs to win.

If Dani accidentally takes out Marc, will Repsol let Dani go and/or will the booing be too overwhelming for Dani that he is forced to leave Motogp and starts a new career modeling boys clothing?

The Turd is signed for another year.

Wasn't it HRC that proved that contracts are not as good as the paper they're written on?

If another Marquez came along Dani would be gone.

and a good lawyer can hold HRC at bay in terms of a well written one...that's how/why they fielded a 3 bike Repsol team in Dovi's situation....

personally...I think it should be a Jorge/Dani/MM finish in that order for PI so that MM can cinch the crown at Motegi with all the Honda brass there....be a good way to shut Puig up....
