Interesting that there's no mention of the Stoner incident...

Here's two other articles talking about GP racing, and how "rubbin's racing" :D

"Roadracing Is A Contact Sport," Pt. I

“Roadracing Is A Contact Sport,” Pt. II

I kinda agree with Vale...You think Rainey, Lawson, Gardner, Roberts, Doohan, Schwantz were just gonna wag tongues about rude passes? Nope, they were gonna do the same rough stuff right back. Usually at the next corner...

azoomm 05-12-2011 12:26 PM

I completely agree with Rossi.

KSGregman 05-12-2011 12:35 PM

Drama queens....with Stacey Moaner being the worst of the lot....he goes on and on about how Mick Doohan is his idol....I'm sure Doohan is like, "would you PLEASE keep that to yourself you whiney little cunt? You piss and moan more in a single race week-end than I did in my entire fucking racing career."

Funny, I don't remember him using the term "wimps" in the version I read last week. :D

What word did he use? I'm curious - as in the article they inset the word... (wimps).

On motomatters.com, the quote was:

Quote:

The problem, Rossi avowed, lay elsewhere: "For me, the problem is that big part of MotoGP riders now are pussies," Rossi declared. "In the past, this is normal, the riders were more like real men. Now it is more like they are children."

The teenagers racing AMA Supercross are tougher acting than these guys.

I know there is aggressive and then there is intentional. But really the GP guys should check out Moto2 or WSBK...How many riders got pushed literally off track at Monza? I counted 4 among the leaders and you know there were more than that back in the field that didnt get TV time.

The fans are worse than the riders...

Rossi is already in Stoner's head, IMO. I wouldn't be completely shocked if Stoner got another mystery illness before the season is over.
It appears to me that Sic is starting to get to Lorenzo as well.

It's a toss up sometimes...

Dave 05-12-2011 11:39 PM

while vale is out there tossing stones i wonder how that bleeding vagina shoulder of his is doing?

101lifts2 05-13-2011 02:03 AM

I think Vale is correct as well....it's fucking racing.....get over your bitchin Stoner.

It was no mystery....he had a nervous breakdown. Everyone knows it.

It's all good for the newspaper and magazine writers....but....none of the MotoGP riders seem to be aware of the fact their show is BORING...the number of riders on the grid is minimal....embarrassing even.....the outcome of their races largely determined before the lights go out....and the on track "action" is a long, spread out parade.

MotoGP has almost become a parody of itself....like NASCAR....no one is talking about the quality of the races....just the petty little off track snipe-fests. Whatever....I'm rapidly losing interest and focusing more and more on Moto2 and WSB RACING....REAL grids....with REAL on track racing. :idk:

I get the torrents...just haven't committed myself to watching regularly....getting familiar with the teams and riders and all of that.

Dave 05-13-2011 10:17 AM

At the very least check out superbike. The fight between hopkins, shakey, kiyo, and hill is getting banannas and croft is only gonna be moreso

Other than the number of riders on the grid, there's not a single difference in the groups you listed...

I watch as much racing as possible (some say I have an addiction), and every race, regardless of which racing group you follow, will have the same leaders waaaaay out front and winning...Some races will have 2, 3, maybe 4 fighting for the win, but not often...

GP is the top racers in the world, which means big egos trying to out-do each other, taking chances you don't see too much in the other classes...That's what draws me to watch...
