Thanks for the link.

The article had me cracking up.

Rossi on Lorenzo:

“Jorge is a great because everybody agrees about him in the sense that everybody thinks he is unpleasant. He is strong, he deserves 9.5. I won't say he is intelligent because that's a strong word. Let's say he is crafty.”

Great link, but when did Rossi ever get "socked" by someone?

Figures, I got that altercation backwards max should bring a length of pipe next time

I remember Max delivering the mosquito comment in the post-race interview. Did Rossi back it up?

I'm gonna pick Stoner, though I'd really like to see Rossi or Spies take it. It's only Spies' second year, and maybe he's got what it takes, but I'm just not convinced that Rossi can overcome both injury and the cantankerous Ducati. (Or maybe the shoulder is all good, and it's all down to the Ducati at this point.)

He gets to test this weekend at Losail? Wonder what the BSB buyout agreement would be if Alvaro Albailso and gets injured?

HRC RC212V - The Empire Strikes Back! Rossi complaining about his shoulder over long stints, never put on his softs and is back on the time sheets. Spies in 3rd but says he wasnt pushing it.

This weekend should be fun!

Heh you notice the shoulder was good last week when he was closer to the top. All of a sudden it hurts again when he's in the back
