It does seem that the Bridgestone wets are the best at the moment. But even so ...Stoner just amazes me...he is awesome at the moment....we are looking at domination here that far surpasses Doohan...we have the great Rossi out there ...and he's whooping his arse every week..brilliant.

True
what Ducati need is another good rider up the top taking point of Rossi ect,
but 5 points or so each race will soon get him up there.
considering my man Lorenzo has now had 3 non scores hes done well to hang on to 4th in championship

Dont get me wrong..I'm a stoner fan..always have been ..I tipped him
along while ago...but Lorenzo.....well, he's going places...but I tell you what...my second man ..Dovi...will whoop his arse in 3 years time...Dovi is awesome...just needs a competitive bike..he may get that next year...but in the mean time I just love watching Stoner..just watch him...he is fantastic on a bike....the best I have ever seen...I am getting on 50...Ihave not seen anyone better..not even my previous hero ...Freddie.
I mean we are talking about a really wet race...A Rossi definate...on the same tyres...Stoner is a top notch guy, and he is not getting the acclaim he deserves...he is better than Rossi...Rossi, the media machine..is second best to this bloke....and his missus is gorgeous.....

i remember someone tipping melandri this time last year.....now where is he? dovi showing promise cant be called much more.....
rossi is the greatest racer there is, not always the fastest but it isnt just about that, he knows how to play the technical game and the mind game and the media game better than any other...ok his mind wasnt on the game last year but id like to see anyone do better when spending every minute outside the saddle fending off millions in taxes and your home government.......freddie was fast but was petulant and got up his own arse...then he found god 
stoner is also fast but has about as much charisma as doohan....
pedrosa was 1.5s per lap quicker than anyone.....and they were calling him mr consistent, the most consistent rider this year.....yet he fell off...despite looking ten times smoother than stoner or anyone else......maybe suzi hexed him just like she did toseland at donno
or maybe it just wasnt his race and its always too complex to call.....we will know at the end of the year.....anything in between is just opinion and BS....

What are you on about....????? Your mister fantastic Rossi has now been thrashed in 3 consecutive races....hes become an also ran...do you think for one minute the Ducati boys are not drumming into caseys head...stop on you tart or I'll spank your arse... Oh come on..we are talking sh*t hot guys here both in the paddock and on the bikes. As far as that is concerned..Caseys got him beat....fair play to the guy...why do so many Brits not like Casey.....sit in front of your telly and watch the guy..he's riding a bucking foooking bronco compared to the great man..and still whooping him...and still stopping on.....I loved those fast laps mid race...hehehe...come Vale if you think your good enough....and what did Vale do...OK I'll stop here ..lets finish this one...!!! come on guys apprecate someone good......I agree mr Rossi is a nice guy and does alot for the sports image...but Jesus...the last thing he needed was Casey on the pace again.
Do you know what..Valentino acknowledges it...why cant you..???
PS. PEDROSA HAS HIS HEAD UP HIS ARSE..he would be quick if Hecould just forget he beat Stoner in the 250's....hope he dont read this..he might get better.
By the way.....WHAT THE FOOK HAS CHARISMA GOT TO DO WITH IT....FFS GO AND BUY AN IPHONE...If thats too hard for you to understand...get a credit card....if thats too hard...try doing a bit yourself... 
Best Brit in my era GP's ..Niall Mckenzie..by a country mile...why...because he came from 250's. He is still the fastest bloke I ever saw go into Gerrards (250 Armstrong)....best race I ever saw was Juan Garriga winning a 250 race..I have never seen anything like it..unbelievable. Best MotoGP...Stoner beating Valentino last year at Catalunya. I knew then..!! I had allready tipped him before the season started..but after that race I just knew.
Toseland...deary deary me....who the foook is telling him what to do...????? whats wrong with asking Edwards,,,he's a nice guy..I'm sure he'd help him out.
Dont you think its weird that poor old Hayden always gets a problem in these horible races...????
Oh yeah..I dunno who tipped Melandri...but it weren't me. I tipped Casey even before last year began.....do a search....!!!
Sorry about the massive post..but I just came in from the pub and its work tomorrow...I dont want to go to bed..!!!

I think some Brits don't like Casey because hes an aussie... pure and simple.
I also think that a lot of them were saying it was all the bike and Casey was just a passenger. I don't think they are quite ready to eat all that humble pie yet.
I rate Melandri, and I rate Capirossi. But neither of them have been even close do doing what Casey is doing on the Ducati. How can you say its all bike?
Obviously technically, Casey is also top notch.
I still like Rossi too, but you just can't deny he is currently being outclassed.

Its gonna get interesting...its going to be like Hayden's championship year. Stoner and Pedrosa have to come from behind...chipping away...Rossi has obviously allready eyed up the situation and is making sure he has no more DNF's. He is not chucking it away like he may have done a few years ago.
He's got competition now...he's got to think about it...he should win it...but I dont know...I can see frustration at not winning races getting the better of him and his ego..another DNF...then its game on. I dont think Rossi would be that happy winning the championship if he keeps on comming second every week. Thats all he's basically got to do for a while....frustrate them...make it take ages for them to catch up.
I'm looking forward to seeing what Stoner does....bad start...Rossi/Dani must not be in front of me....oops....arrgh sheeet. Or ...I'm OK with this...certainly more OK than sitting on my arse. They might have a problem and I wont benefit if I'm playing sandcastles in the gravel trap.
