You should really consider turning down the dickishness.

Hey Dave,
-and I say this with great respect as I believe you are in touch with the top players in our sport-
I'm more interested in who you think will be winners.
Any predictions you care to make and if so what's the inside scoop?

JimC, NOPE, I just want to work on my manners. There are a few top persons in the championship, and it is still wide open for those to take.

It is interesting what has continued with the Ducati's, though. They were supposed to get a giant leap right out of the abyss with Dovi coming on board, and was supposed to put them right back on top, but, they still manage to hover around the 8th to 10th finisher positions every race, and now, they won't have Nicky to blame and brow beat any longer. Word is, Ducati had better get with the program, or Spies will not be happy. If I know Tom Houseworth, and I do, he won't stand for all the Ducati mumbo-jumbo, and neither will Ben. Should be very, very interesting to watch, for sure.

Bridgestone tyres have proven that you can get a contract to scare the living daylights right out of just about every rider in the paddocks, while still advertizing they arrogantly insist they build the best tyres in the world. In the World Super-Bike Championship series, Pirelli have proven the exact same is absolutely true. Anyone realize it was my old friend, Steve Whitelock, WSBK chief tech inspector, that proposed, and pushed for a one tyre supplier rule for those series. He has always been an effluence disturber, super sized.

There are still a few checkered flags to get waved, it ain't over, just yet.

Agreed. Our problem child, Stoner, actually came up with a good idea, instead of just whining and moaning, he said he'd like to come back to MotoGP, ONLY IF THE BIKES WENT BACK TO BEING 500CC, OR LARGER TWO STROKES.

The only sane thing he has said in many years.

I TOTALLY Refute the allegation Stoner was a whinger. If He said something, He backed it up in the only way that counts - by beating everyone else!! The best example (of many) was when he said he was sick - the Media (Those bastions of Integrity) got stuck into him unmercilessly, until they were, of course, proven wrong, yet again. When he made a statement, the Media and the REAL whingers attacked him, He just went out onto the track, and proved his point! How many times did he take .5/1.0 sec. off the best qualifying times, just after a big High-side, that takes guts! And who else could ride the straightlining Ducati - to a Championship, no less! You can pick on his Aussie accent if you like, (fine, Hayden sounds "funny") or you can just not like him, fine, but he was never a whinger....!! :banghead :D

I really miss Stoner. He was a stunning rider to watch, and regularly put my jaw on the floor. People continually calling him a winger is tiresome and perpetuates a feeble myth. Its become a mob mentality with people jumping on the wagon unfortunately.
