oh and who said pedro was out? what source?

quik99 · 07-17-2008, 07:57 PM

Ben speis to take it all!

svhunter · 07-17-2008, 08:02 PM

Stoner

The ducati is all mighty!

End of topic

Stoner.

Stoner had a DNF, and while Rossi had a 'bad day', he still got points. For Casey to have that mechanical and still be so close is amazing. His ride is set up right finally. Look to see him dominate like he did last season.

E36M3K6GSXR · 07-17-2008, 08:29 PM

I would like Rossi to win, however, MotoGP has become a precision game and they are both on Bridgestones so I really don't know.

gsxr75020 · 07-17-2008, 08:29 PM

Rossi FTMFW!!!!

fastfoodfred · 07-17-2008, 08:48 PM

You didn't specify for this weekend or the Championship. I think Pedrosa never had a chance at Laguna, too many people showing up with local track knowledge. If Hayden pulled his head out of his ass and the tampon out of his great, big pussy, he could win this weekend.

My favorite for Laguna is Colin Edwards, though. He knows his way around this track and is on a good team, this year.

I think the Championship will go to Stoner. Damn, I hate saying that.

1balisong · 07-17-2008, 08:55 PM

I choose to pick any this riders and I wouldn't count any of them out because they have talents

Hayden, Edwards, Spies, Hacking

late apex · 07-17-2008, 09:07 PM

For this weekend, Colin.

For the championship, Pedrosa.

Any but Hacking has a chance at finishing the race.

How so? Because his girl is hot and he can ride better than you can even comprehend?

Yup! Thats why I think he sux!!!!!

KCander · 07-18-2008, 08:24 AM

Rooting for Rossi, but Stoner has been on a frickin mission, not sure I'd bet against him. So if you're asking who I want to win, Rossi, if you're asking who I think will win...mmmmm...shit I think I'd have to go with Stoner. He's got some points still to make up, but Ducati really has their shit together lately.

KCander · 07-18-2008, 08:28 AM

As far as this weekend goes, I agree with a couple of you guys that this is gonna be Colin's 1st GP win. He's come close at Seca before, and that Tech 3 Yami is looking pretty legit this year. Pulling for him bigtime, he's definitely my favorite racer these days just because of his attitude and sense of humor. Go Texas Tornado!

xrdotimcr · 07-18-2008, 12:51 PM

Sorry about the confusion, I did mean for the championship. As for Pedrosa being "out", I am just saying that I personally believe his chances at the championship are slim to none as of right now, I mean look at what happend to Lorenzo after he went down a couple times, granted he is a rookie and all, but I just don't see Pedrosa being a major threat anymore. As for this race, I'd love to see Stoner or Edwards win, hell if Rossi didn't podium I'd be happy with Stoner in second and Edwards getting his first win.

Ciao998 · 07-18-2008, 01:02 PM

Stoners style suits this track better than anyone. Combined with the roll he and Ducati are on and his domination at seca last year, I can only see Rossi riding in damage control mode. Hell the podium last year I think was Stoner, Melandri, Vermuelen?? Correct me if I'm wrong. Melandri may have gone out, can't remember........

Essvar · 07-18-2008, 01:04 PM

Its going to be a tie. (because they are both on Bridgestones)

smurfhell · 07-18-2008, 01:57 PM

If Rossi wears his face helmet, then he will win.

ApexHack · 07-18-2008, 08:04 PM

Stoner's hissy fits during practice and qualifying are ridiculous. He's a wanker. A wanker who can ride, but a wanker nonetheless.

It would be great to see Colin win Laguna. He deserves it so much.

I'm really pulling for Vale. He's my hero.

Bloody wanker!!!!!!!

Viva ROSSI!!!!!!!!

KCander · 07-20-2008, 04:26 PM

Hmmmm...I was a little off on my Colin Edwards pick. Like somewhere in the neighborhood of, oh 13 positions, give or take.

Blame the french people with the hard tires.

I'm American... I have no problem blaming french people.

Though I have french tires on my bike

gixxerjeff · 07-20-2008, 05:01 PM

rossi was pumped after the win today. not to mention he rode like a mad man early in the race. hot damn!

cee-jay · 07-20-2008, 09:29 PM

Casey came across like a whiney-a$*-bi*&^ post-race. Check out the interviews. Can't shake Rossi's hand?!?

Jeez, there is a HUGE gap between who is running at the front, and the rest of the class. I don't see that closing anytime this season.

gixxerjeff · 07-20-2008, 09:33 PM

how about a cheer for vermuelen finishing 3rd. only his 2nd podium finish in the dry!

fastfoodfred · 07-20-2008, 09:44 PM

It's pretty clear that Casey has something that belongs to Valentino, and he wants it back!

SloRida:) · 07-20-2008, 09:54 PM

I am very impressed with Rossi and Stoner! Hats off to Rossi!! What a madman to fight every time he had too to win!!!!!!!! WTF Hayden??

Ciao998 · 07-20-2008, 09:58 PM

gaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Too bad Stoner went off. Would have been a GREAT race!. Kudos to Rossi for pushing himself.

Hayden is not at this level. He never was. Honda needs to either fire him or put him back in the AMA. At least then Honda may be able to beat Suzuki.
