It rained again! Jeez.

Who is surprised by how well Jorge and Dovi are doing?
RdP is for real.
Hopkins, Melandri and Vermeulen need to get going.

Go Nicky!

Where do you guys get your info?
Or is MotoGP getting their info wrong?

This is like the second time their site shows dry when you guys say wet/rain.

The Official MotoGP Website


Ole washed up, talentless Hicky Nayden set a new record it seems.......not too shabby.

My bad...

I thought it was damp.
The headline on the motogp.com story said "Light rain and cool temperatures for final Jerez morning" I just glanced at that and at the top 10.

Hayden is far from talentless, he's already won 3 races in only 5 years! Wait 'til he learns the tracks.

He beat the race (tire) record by 1.6 seconds.
He beat the qualifying record from last year by .6 seconds.
Good, but not 2 seconds.

WOW!!!! What great lengths some ppl will go through to justify something to themselves. He said 'ALMOST' bro........get over it already, 1.6 is almost.

Im just glad to see the Stones are doing so well for Rossi this testing season.

Wait a second. He was saying Nicky beat the track record by almost 2 seconds, but apples to apples (Q to Q) he beat last years qualifying record by .6 second.

The "record" he beat by 1.6 was the race record on race tires. It's you guy's job to get over-heated by Nicky's acomplishments, it's my job to hose you down.

Actually, today Hayden matched his time from the previous test in November. Pedrosa managed to go a couple of tenths quicker. Rossi's time at the IRTA tests in 2007 was 1:38.394. So Hayden does not have the record. However, today's time was set in cool conditions on a relatively green track that had been rained on for two and a half days straight. It was also windy so overall conditions were less than ideal and inferior to those during the November test as well as last year's test at this time.

When listing his wins and trying to discount the number (that you have been spouting for months now) Nicky is at the top on THIS chart. You also forgot to add a world championship in MOTOGP when speaking of his 3 wins in 5 years.

Play with your numbers all you want, but when he goes home, he is looking at a MOTOGP World Championship trophy and your little waif is looking at nothing.

Like I said, wait until Nick learns the tracks, he's gonna dominate.

Who is my waif? You are!
