He needs to be beat for that alone.  No more awesome replica helmets from Rossi. :'(

Let's hope his hat stays the correct size.

It just says that his helmets will now incorporate the Monster logo.  I think we'll still be seeing some fun stuff on Rossi's melon.   [thumbsup]

That version is not so bad. I could live with that.  But not the hopper atrocity.
Thanks for the pics Derby, I was looking for some but couldn't find any.

3.25 million for wearing the logo. +650k if he wins championship. :o    I'll drink that crap for a whole lot less and wear their stuff too. [laugh]

I also have to derby myself as I just saw the other thread you started about this. ;D

but another energy drink is a long time MAJOR sponsor of just about anything motorized, "extreme", etc..  i don't get it.  the monster claw is somehow much more offensive than a pair of red bulls?

Ummm. I think so... No wait!
Uh. Yes, yes it is! Yes Monster energy is more offensive than Redbull, Torro Rosso, McDonalds, sausages & Gatorade.

That is what we are saying!

It's not, and you can measure it by how mis-sized each company's hats are:
