MotoGP round 7 Catalunya 07/04/10 *SPOILER THREAD*

L8 Braker · 07-01-2010, 09:05 PM

OK, we had some small success with the last weeks GP thread...Let's see if it keeps going...

What a weird week...MCN is trying to confirm the rumors that Rossi has a done deal with Ducati, Spies will take his Yami, and Stoner is headed to Honda...It's all specualation, but I think we all know there's a little truth to every rumor, right?

So, here we go..

--Rossi..Still out

--Zo..Clearly the one to beat right now
--Ben..Going forward the last few races
--Nicky..Going backwards the last few races
--Pedro..Still strong, but still inconsistent
--Dovi..Looking good on the Honda lateley
--Stoner..Got his 1st podium of 2010 last week..Will he continue the trend?

Your thoughts?

The race is on Speed Sunday TWICE!!

L8 Braker · 07-01-2010, 09:08 PM

So far this year...

Oh yeah...This is Zo's home track!

Lorenzo was on pole last year, finished 2nd to Rossi. his Home GP, Give it to him.

2nd and 3rd are a toss up with Pedro, who owns fast lap honors, and Stoner who has 4 consecutivepodiums there.

Who relies on Speed for MotoGP coverage when you get a high res season pass to MotoGP.com for like $120?! And listen to expert commentary before, during and after the race rather than those fucktards on Speed?

In any event...here's my prediction.

1) Lorenzo...home track...most dialed in bike...great confidence...barring him getting taken off by someone at the start I think he runs away with this one.

2) Pedrosa...home track...HIGHLY motivated to not be upstaged in Spain by Lorenzo.

3) Hayden...on the cusp of a podium all season long...he's coming to terms with the Duc and it's time to put in on the podium.

Hayden off the pace...and the Suzuki's are sucking hind tit...again. They have an absolutely SHAMEFUL bike this year....it's worse than last years bike. :/
