MOTO GP

After all the controversy concerning his drive through penalty at the last race I see Marco Simoncelli is on pole for MotoGP .

I've got to work today unfortunately-with the hirsute loon going from the front this could be an interesting race!

i got to admit i do like watching marco because other riders are scared of him and hes got the speed but all depends if he cant finish a race, but as they say you can stop a fast rider from crashing but you cant make a slow rider fast . btw cant wait to watch it live next weekend at silverstone

all i can say is that was a dull race and not worth watching, moto gp is getting quite boring and now that simo has been intimidated by the big boys i cant see anything coming along to improve matters. well fone boys soon we shall be as dull as f1.

When it gets dull, I just fast forward it to the crashes...

Yea Noz your right, there contracts wouldnt allow them too, plus Darmember they are worlds apart from each others in riding styles, a lot of road racers generally find short circuit racing boring lap after lap, i only know this as thats what a lot off them have told me over the years, they do bsb etc etc as it pays well compaired to road racing...and dont forget the isle of man tt was part of the motogp calender years ago. But like ive always said every racer is an hero in my book risking there lives week in and week out so heres a big to all you guys and gals who take part

This is no criticism of ya mate, but if only you knew what work goes into setting a MotoGp bike up then you would understand, if the setups not right then racing becomes dull trust me, so stick with it mate and look forward to next year when they go back to 1000ccs they need to get rid of the electronics on these machines then racing would be interesting most riders dont like em anyway. Setup is everything mate, still cant beat watching live though.

I find BSB and SKK are way more entertaining than MotoGP but I still watch it - mostly to see if Stoner falls off again (oh how that makes me laugh). I used to skip thru the Superstock classes too but there's some kick ass racing and mahusive crashes in them, so watch them a bit more now. There a days when I'm glued to the box watching catch up on sky+
