That boy needs to have a discussion with his boot provider.

It'd help if he stopped the Flying Wallenda auditions, but he's just not getting the protection he needs.

i'm not sure how much more protection you can get and still be able to use your foot..  the '100mph, 12ft fall' rating on those things is probably pretty limited

But then he fell off.  laughingdp

Up to then It was a great race!  applause

I think that with the Jorges hang time.... ride'n for Jordan would be a given. Nike's have great ankle support.

Rossi Quotes:

Quote
'On the podium he told me that he'd lost respect for me because he's been racing for many years and he doesn't remember ever having a race like that,' said the Italian.

'Well if he's been racing for many years, I've been racing for a lifetime and I don't know who he's been racing against but I remember all my races being like that and my rivals always fought that way.'


Quote
'He's used to the mentality of racing at the front with a four second advantage over the field but racing shoulder-to-shoulder brings other factors into play,' said Rossi.

i don't think any boots lorenzo uses is going to help...

almost nothing is going to help when you are being launched off the bike into low orbit providing a prime example on youtube of what a really, really, really, bad high side looks like on both ocassions...when you see him go flying in both accidents it looks like he was shot out of a circus cannon.

i'd say if nothing else he is lucky he wasn't injured even worse.. but he should maybe say, "guys make my boots out of solid titanium next time, i need it"

It's not like Rossi's move there is unprecedented -- Zanardi's will always be simply "The Pass"
