Rooting for Rossi?
« on: November 05, 2015, 08:51:13 PM »
I'm actually really tense about this weekend's coming race. After the sepang shenanigans it's all coming down to nail-biting finsh that you really couldn't script.

And as for Danny Kent, I can see him losing the championship at the very last moment, our favourite Brit thumper racer has let the pressure get to him in the last few races. But, fingers crossed.

Aye GC,

Like the Moto Morini 250 World Championship in 1963, Italian flare but can't keep their act together at the crucial time.

Marcquez was riding around Rossi, as Rossi had in the 'manouvre' on Sete Gibernau all those years ago. "What goes around, comes around!"

Link: Rossi v Gibernau

As for Danny Kent, I would tend to agree, the "Old man" of the class has been out bullied by the loons.

However, if the skys clear I shall be out on Sally and watch the shenanigans after a day blowing the cobwebs away.

Ciao

I think I'll be glued to the screen on sunday afternoon.

Whichever way it goes, it's a superb end to a fantastic season

Aye GC,

Rooting for my 'local' man from Oban, John McPhee!

Lorenzo went well today, but tomorrow is another day. Watch out for the 'Joe 90' eyeballs tomorrow afternoon!  ;)

My regards, Bill

We'll be glued to the telly all day. Rooting for Danny Kent and Rossi. Danny seems to have lost his cool a little but hopefully he won't do anything rash! Rossi has a mammoth task ahead but, hey, this is bike racing!

All good stuff!... I think it just goes to prove (if proof is still required)... how bike racing & particularly MotoGP, knocks Formula Bore into a cocked hat for quality of racing and entertainment....

no stupid pit stops (lets face it, watching a Tesco's filling station is more entertaining than Formula Bum), no overpaid prima donna's invisible inside their carbon fibre boxes.... just balls out racing... wonderful... good luck to the lot of 'em
