The 2008 Fantasy MotoGP Thread

[Charlesbusa]

While BA Busa and I were watching the China race, we noticed Pedrosa never used Rossi's slipstream. Definitely odd...


After reading superbikeplanet, I found out Pedrosa and Hayden, ran out of gear down the big straight and would red line if they used the slipstream

There was a big tailwind during the race nobody expected.

Oh Yeah

, well I think it was that SUCKING vortex that Rossi  

made ripping up the track

We'll have the 2nd 6 and the 3rd 6 fantasies you can join in if you feel too far behind in the year fantasy. And you can pick an entirely new team if you picked a lousy year team.  But keep in mind, we're only 4 races in

Pedrosa is looking strong, what's going on with Nicky

 

[Charlesbusa]

Rossi is a god  

 

 

That was awesome with him riding with Angel Nieto, the 2 of them combining to 180 wins on one bike!!

Anyone know what happened to Stoners Bike  

. And not only did Rossi  

look Great, but what a race for Lorenzo  

. Coming from 16th to 2nd

. And the top THREE are all Yamaha's, when did that happen before (any historian here) with one make taking the Top Three in MotoGp  

. Now that was a race, compaired to the AMA this weekend, they (AMA boys) looked and acted like Club Racers or maybe just Track Day Racers  

Even SBK is hands and fist a better racing series and their riders are more interesting to listen too. The AMA guys seem to not know what to say when interviewed. So, where are their coaches. It's Bucks and Salesmanship that will save that series, not just one bike running off from his team mate while the others play for 3rd through 8th

All they have said about Stoner's bike was "engine difficulty".

Lorenzo did awesome considering how hurt he was. Though I'm thinking he hammed it up a little on the podium

The mental games...

I definately agree that Ben and Matt interview very badly, almost like its a hassle for them...

And the camera action from Speed really blows. They need to take some lessons from MotoGP cameramen.

Speed also needs to answer questions that they ask during the race. For example, the announcers go "I wonder why Disalvo is out, did the bike break or he make a mistake and break the bike". They never came back and told the viewers the answer...

Just watched the race...it was another good one. Lorenzo was riding well. Stoner needs to get his issues settled quick if he wants to stay in the run for 1st.

Geezzzzzzzzzz

, if I had TWO broken ankles and came from 16th to 2nd

. I wouldn't be hamming it up

, I WOULD BE THE TOTAL HAM

Yeah I know, its broken bones.

But when he stood up from the chair without crutches to shake some dudes hand, he didn't wince or anything.  Just had a big o'l smile on his face.


I think he playing mind games with Rossi, he was trying to let Rossi know, if I didn't have broken ankles I would have kicked your arse!  

 

[saygbye]

rossi's "happy" with the bike and the tyres(for now). so good luck to the rest of the field from here on out.

 

[Charlesbusa]

Mugello starts tomorrow, don't forget to send in those teams!

 

[Charlesbusa]

I'm a retard

Its the 6th race, so teams are set.

I'm tired, I'm going to bed now
