    Re: Motegi....

    incredible race. also watched the moto2 race later in the day yesterday which was very impressive as well. I really really don't want to see lorenzo win this championship but since pedrosa is out not looking like any other option, he flat out dominated this season.

    Re: Motegi....

    You don't see paint swapping too often in the premier class, but if there were ever two guys that were down for duking it out, you know its these two. So many epic race finishes between 46 and 99 over the last couple of seasons. The Doctor is really making Lorenzo work for his first Championship...think Rossi was sending a message for next year?

    Big ups to Dovi too, he's got to be the most understated guy in GP.

    Hello yeahh!! That was an Epic Race. It is been said over and over...Rossi will certainly get the best of his adversaries when the bikes are on par. Relentless.

    Re: Motegi....

    I just saw this posted in an FB status update and figured id share. I agree those last few laps were a ton of fun to watch and I loved the reaction of the crew chief or whomever he was for the team when they asked him if there would be a "chat" after the race about racing a teammate that hard and after a few seconds of thinking he said "no there wont be any chats" lol

    scuse' scuse' comin' through, thank you

    Roger that. I loved the "there won't be chat" commentary as well. Guess Lorenzo worked hard for to bring the bike back in one piece as requested by his team.

    I guess I have to watch that last lap again, but I could've sworn the first contact was Lorenzo pushing off trying to go for a deep inside pass. I remember thinking he was gonna take Vale's leg off. I got the impression Rossi's move was returning the favor, although he did obviously push a lot wider out to the edge of the track.

    I can't say I'm a Lorenzo fan, but I've respected the kid. He's fast as hell, and got the skills to be champion. But sometimes, like here, he can sound like a real whiner (this wasn't exactly Pedrosa and Hayden at Estoril '06). He sounds like he thinks Rossi's supposed to lay down and let him by from now on...sorry bud, I don't see it happening.

    Re: Motegi....

    It was more than close, they hit each other a couple times and at least one looked to be a pretty big bike to bike hit in my opinion. But it was definitely fun to watch Its like Nascar or bikes or something :p

    I recorded it and I've already watched the last two laps more than once. Just plain fun to see. Anybody remember the video game Road Rash? Just amazing that neither of them went down.

    I still have all 3 games and the sega still works. Lot's of fun during the long cold winter. Wonder what MotoGP would be like if they could use clubs and chains.

    I have to keep replaying the vid so I can catch all the commentary..They speak so fast it drives me crazy...but yes they touched a few times but its nice to see the battle in the GP again..and personally I like them both,but Jorge can win this year..I do wanna know whats up with Nicky.I thought he was coming around.
