The MotoGP is Saturday night

[Rossi]

Linda was none too pleased with Rossi's passing move on the last lap......BUT I have to applaud the man.....Pass & Block the oldest trick in the racing fraternity .....watched Roberts Snr and Sheen not to mention Mick Grant do it to perfection.
When the machinery is so closely matched then it's time to resort to tactics !
My hat goes off to Sete though, I don't think I'd have been as calm as he was at the interview

[icebreaker]

I was waiting for him to cry like a baby...


He almost went from Sete, to Sooke

[Bluefly]

he might be the best rider ever, but he like playing mind games like a bitch.

Here's a quote from Rossi directly after last weeks Assen TT:

"After the tyre started sliding it was not easy. It made for a great, great battle. I lot a bit of time with Barros, and with two or three laps to go I made a mistake in the long straight after my foot slipped off the peg, and Sete got away. I tried not to give up and had a hard battle of braking with Sete as I tried to overtake. After I got by him, at the next corner I almost lost the front and I thought I would crash. It was a fantastic race for everybody. I think Sete will be a little bit angry but it was a great race between us."


And here's a quote from Val yesterday where he basically says he lied in the last one.....


“All the wins are hard but the first one in South Africa was the most beautiful one, as I was on the limit all the way through. As the bike gets more familiar it also gets a little easier to race for the win.”
