Actually, you're right. I remember Rossi gave Biaggi the finger after passing him the lap after Biaggi tried to elbow him off the track at Suzuka.

Racers a prima donnas?
That's something new to you guys?
LOL
Personally, I can't think of many champion racers that aren't.
This season should be another Stoner season. I don't count Lorenzo out as the "red 5" nor do I think there won't be any competition from Mr. Glass but I don't think anyone has the ride to give them the edge over Honda.
Not yet anyway.
Rossi knew the Duc would be slow and he is doing whatever he can to win but they need to find an edge just like every other team.
Just hope it will be a better season for actual racing. The drama is somewhat entertaining but good on track battles and close finishes beat politi-drama any day.
Fingers crossed.

It's funny you mentioned that. I guess Stoner dosen't have a shred of common sense by saying things like, " your ambition outweighed your talent" to Rossi's face while being filmed.
Was that on 250's........how old was he then???????
1998 Argentina Qualifying Rossi kicked another rider for slowing him down on his fast lap. They've all had their moments.

That was hilarious and Rossi deserved it. He had no chance of making that corner.
I don't know what Casey was thinking at the time but it's my opinion that if you allow yourself to think that someone is better than you, they've already beaten you.

Hah! that was a good race - Rossi & Biaggi ended up throwing a few punches at each other on the way up to the podium too..
I don't think Stoner is a whiner. He is just playing the game like any other rider that is contending for the championship. It often seems to me that the only guy out there who is just having fun with it all is Edwards. He's a good rider and often seems happy regardless of the events. I really appreciate his spirit.
rumours of a new team for Rossi...

On speed channel, at 2pm is moto2 and at 3 is MotoGP, not sure of times but it is either what I said or an hr later.
lol, speed channel really needs to update their website with recent information
No wonder they don't show any of the qualifiers or training sessions, they don't have a clue

I actually prefer to download the BBC coverage of the races. The quality of the video and the reporting on the grid prior to the race is excellent. The show is typically 90 minutes long since they provide so much more covereage.

The BBC has excellent pre-race coverage but the Eurosport commentary is better.
