Don't forget folks, it's the Dutch TT this weekend, so the racing takes place TODAY.
Toseland qualified a piss-poor 13th !

Valentino Rossi - What a Tosser !
Fancy falling off on the first lap !
This would've been another race where I could have turned up on my rattly old Guzzi, trundled around at the back, and picked up some points !

Careful MG, you'll have "peteyam" after you, remember your toenails aren't big enough, or some other drivvel he'll be whinging on about!  I'm afraid after Toeslands splendid performance last week the great race he had today puts him in the same category as Melandri. A team mate that gets his act together and cracks on yet the great Toeman rumbles round at the end with all the rest of the mediocre boys. He should have stuck to Superbikes!!! Rossi was a tosser to fall like that, but at least he got going and showed the crowd what they wanted. He does deserve his salary, mind, he doesn't play the piano!!!;)

Interesting article, maybe they'll sign up Ryder and Moody to replace that fat Aussie git!  However one thing the Cole guy said in his interview is slightly inaccurate: "With James Toseland making a very promising start to his MotoGP career", Hmm, if that's "promising" I'd hate to see a "bad start"!!!!!! :?

Well, he did make a very promising start.
It's all gone pear shaped since !

how cares about anyone but the world champion Aussie Casey Stoner who has just smashed the lap record at the German GP. He has started to pick up the pace and with the amount of rounds left l will put money on (now that the bikes working)that he will win his second championship in a row.:D

Dream on Aussie! Believe me nothing would please me more than seeing Ducati give the Japs the bird 2 years in succession, BUT, Rossi is always there, Pedrosa is always there, if Casey wins all the races from now 'til the end of the season, and Rossi just cruises round to 2nd, Stoner isn't going to pull back the points he's already lost!! Casey said this himself!! Rossi & Pedrosa have got to DNF a few times and Stoner win everything before we're going to see another Ducati championship. Would be nice if he had a team mate to make matters more difficult for the others as well!!! ;)

Well, Stoner's on Pole, and still whingeing !!!

Colin Edwards on 3rd and happier than a bag of monkeys !

Toseland 11th.

Melandri is apparently considering sodding off to Kawasaki mid-season, with possibly Sete Gibernau joining Ducati.
And the D'Antin Ducati team have lost their team owner !
Luis D'Antin has made a sudden exit.

Interesting to see Rossi perched on the pit wall waiting to watch the 125 race !
The guy is obviously a race fan  !

Another good race by young Bradders - 4th - shame he couldn't manage a podium but fair play to the lad for attempting a last corner overtake on the reigning World Champion !
Not a bad result for Scott Redding either - 8th.

And They're Off - In the pouring rain - could be interesting.

Oh - Great on bike footage of Pederosa binning it !

Cracking race by Chris Vermeulen - Nice to see a cheerful Aussie on the podium !
Guintoli did alright on the Pramac Ducati too.
Another less than impressive performance by Toseland.
And once again, I'd have scored points on my rattly old Guzzi.

Not a bad ride again by the Aussie boys, Stoner  only 4 point behind Pedrosa who might find it hard to race next week?  But l do think 20 points behind Rossi is to much to catch up , hey l don't think any minds if he wins another title. l think if Chris Vermeulen had a better bike you would see him on the podium more often to.

Yup, good steady rides from down under, Pedrosa pushed too hard, but he knew if he didn't he'd have Stoner up his chuff and he rarely wins if he has to fight for it. Splendid performance by Toeman, he'd be better back in Superbike.

Watching the Laguna Seca race live now.

Lorenzo's just gone flying again !

'kin 'ell ! Stoner and Rossi are really going at it hammer and tongs - they'll be lucky to both finish the way they are going !

Well, they both finished, but only after Stoner had run off the road and fell over at walking pace !
He still finished 2nd though.
Vermeulen 3rd again, so there'll be a cheerful Aussie on the podium again !

I don't really follow MotoGP but enjoyed watching it this evening.  Felt sorry for Stoner until I heard him speak - very ungracious, I thought.  Cracking race:)

I wouldn't call one of the two best riders in GP a "twat".  Nobody goes to race Rossi except Stoner, he's deeply involved in his racing, but lacking a little experience, ok, he has the charisma of a stale donut, but hell, he is Australian, so cut him some slack. I'm not interested in "people" stuff, or clowning antics, I want to see good racing, and if it wasn't for Stoner it would be pretty boring. He nearly got run off the road by Rossi, but how could he know were Rossi had come from? I'm sure once he sees the vid of the race he'll re-consider. The spectator always sees more of the game! Actually, I've seen some very nice "twats" in my time, and have nothing against them!!!!!!!;)
