Without the "spoiler" indication, you guys shouldn't be giving out any details to spoil someone else's day!
Ya know, I agree with you. But yours and my opinions will fall on completely deaf ears. No matter how many times was say it, no matter how many times we complain, no matter how many times we warn them ahead of time, its going to happen EVERY WEEK.
Once, shame on them.
Again and again and again, shame on us for looking.
I do not read this forum on friday, saturday or sunday before the race because of this. I need to watch it on Speed TV before I see all the hype. Now, if the race is shown on a Tuesday, well, shame on Speed TV.....
I will agree that all is "normal" with the world but I can't use the word right. Right would indicate I am happy with the outcome. I just pray that I don't have to watch Nicky look that slow all year long. He and that bike just don't get along.

I am really, really happy that Colin got on the box. I hope this is his year to win a race.
Not quite sure what is going on with Loris. I know he said that he had a bad race, but Stoner ran rings around him.
Props to Hopper. I haven't seen the race, but from what I've read (and what I could discern from watching live timing), he didn't quit after falling off and almost...almost caught up with the tail-enders before the end of the race.

I can tell you this...if the rest of the season is like the last race, MotoGP is going to lose viewers. I like Rossi as much as the next guy, but that was one of the most boring races in recent history. Say what you will about last season, at least it was interesting.

Yea, Rossi's dominance has clearly lead to a diminished market share for motogp. The world is clamoring for new champ every year.

says you.
I personally found it thrilling to watch Rossi lead for two reasons.
One, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time staring at the Yamaha sayin' "don't break down, don't break down, don't break down you p.o.s.!"
And for two, I frankly enjoy watching Rossi wipe the floor with everyone. It never gets old!
Anyone whose complained about something like this has obviously never raced before, and has no idea how difficult it actually is to lead a race and keep it.

Here, here! If you are a motorcyclists or a fan of racing you are fortunate to be living in the Rossi era. We are living in the time of a Michael Jordan, Lance Armstrong, or Dan Gable. Hell yes that's exciting. Yea he dominates, as did Ago, and Doohan.
Rossi's skill is in large part responsible for the success of motogp in Europe now. Given the current problem with sponsorship, you can damn well bet Dorna is really scared of what will happen in 2009 with his retirement. Unless Dani or Casey, or maybe Jorge, steps up in a big, big way, market share and public interest in Europe will fall way off.
