Here we are slagging him in the other thread & he got pole :spank:

Don't worry he won't dissapoint us...he will fade steadily through the race and finish about 6th! As soon as someone passes him, he is stuffed!

Not one alcoholic drink has touched my lips tonight! I ride to work on Saturday nights...so no drinky's for me!

You will see how much sense I make tomorrow! Either that, or I will be eating humble pie again, posting avatar's that show me drowning in my own hype!!!

Think 2 Fiats will fight out for victory, with Lorenzo doing the job. Casey a closer 3rd than ever before @ Jerez.

Fingers crossed Ben gets another top 5 place and fighting for the podium :thumbup:

When i got home from work this morning i watched Qualifying properly....Lorenzo looks the goods, your right....but i still reckon Rossi is going to struggle!

But i reckon Casey is the hungriest!

I think Pedrosa will disappear into the distance when the lights go out, with Lorenzo in hot pursuit. Two Spaniards at Jerez? It can only end in tears.

"Stacey" Stoner will try and spoil it of course and probably get baled by one of them for his trouble. Vale will watch the carnage and take the victory, with Hayden second and Spies third.

Stoner FTW !!!!!! & i see a podium for Randy D :D

LOL! Did your crystal ball come with the Parasol??? But i reckon your right about Stoner, and De Puniet is a definite chance for a podium, if he stays with them from the start, rather than fall back, then fight back...

Talk about determination, Sandro Cortese in the 125's, fights his way to the lead pack, only to have his rear suspension mount disintegrate, but still manages to do another 12 laps with no rear shocker and finish in 11th!!!

Just saw the highlights of Moto2 practice and qualifying, see those guys power-sliding around Jerez... Sweet!!!

Okay well my crystal ball needs recalibrating but that was some race!

Great Moto2 race too, after that mass crash the restart was thrilling, 250s on steroids!

it was a good race. only the second one i've ever seen. but i've figured out that i need to stop cheering for people. first race i decided i was going to go for hayden part way through. then i saw him get passed. since that race i've watched video of spies and read a few things and really like what i read and saw. decided i'd root for him. we saw what happened there. maybe i need to start pulling for rossi.

Good choices Dean. Hayden is a nice guy, Spies a future champion but you need to go for Rossi :D
