Since when did f1 not have traction control?

I reckon they need to not tell the riders when the race is ending...
Like tell them it will between 5 and 25 laps. Then the bastards will be puttin moves on every corner to be in front

Haha

he's an Aussie. That makes a big difference to me.

Not only that - he is probably the last aussie that will be competitive in the GP class for a long time.....there is nobody on the horizon to take his place and that will eventually result in less aussies giving a toss about the supposed 'premier' class.

And as Steve Parrish said in the Parrish Report, they miss him in the paddock already. There's no one there telling it like it is, or saying anything controversial. Those that Stoner has left behind are simply smiling and saying whatever it is their sponsors want them to say.

motogp has been boring for ages since kawasaki and suzuki pulled out and with 2 competitive factories running round with ducati showing the occasional glimmer of mixig it up for third spot. It just doesnt compare to what wsbk is providing with majority of the factories racing. Motogp and its lesser categories to me are more just a spanish championship, and the joke that is CRT is hideous to make numbers up.
agree with dropping the aids and letting talent shine through get back to how the 2 bangers were

my 2 cents :kuda:

I think you will find that the person holding the spear is Lyn Jarvis or some other high up in Yamaha. No way that one bike can have that many mechanical problems in the one season whilst the other charges off into the sunset


Oh an F1 is closer due to the tyres, no one can get a handle on them and the passing aids like DRS
