Default MotoGP finale

Anyone else saw?


*spoiler*



























Too bad for Rossi. I was when he low sided. I started jumping in the air and then eventually feeling sorry for the guy because he is just a nice guy. There's no doubt he is still the best in the business. Period. Yamaha simply sucked a donkey's azz (should have never left Honda ).

But for now, HONDA ownz and Hayden rocks.

Yeah, i saw it.....I couldn't believe it when Rossi went down, particularly given what happened at Estoril a few weeks back.....man.....talk about irony. I was happy for Nicky but a but bummed by the fact that there was so little drama in the race after that point. Looks like it could've been a great finish to the season if he hadn't gone down.

I read somewhere else that Elias' pass at the wire two weeks before cost Rossi 5 points...the same amount he lost the championship by!

Yup the minute Rossi went down, the race went from exciting to blah in a hurry. Hayden was in good contention to win regardless. If there's one thing Rossi's not good at, it would be his starts.

Elias did steal 1st from Rossi by a hair at the last race. That certainly helped Nicky, if not in morale at the very least.

What a season.

Next year will be very interesting. 800c, the new Ilmor bike, etc. I can't wait!

Back to the subject.

Ah... Rossi is showing chinks in his armor. Good for Nicky he deserves it. He's ridden the damn spokes off of that bike.

^^^I have no cute intern, I only have Mad Matt. Today is raining hard, so Mad Matt is now wearing a bright yellow long sleeve shirt. Banana Boy looks ridiculous, but it's worth a good laugh.
