huh?  all i saw was good racing.

i don't know (/have never cared to look) exactly what the rules are for what you can do to the moto2 engine, but it's well known that his bike has a LOT more money and development in it than most.

other than one of his classic cut back douche moves it was a great race.

I'd still pay to see Crazy Joe take a poke at him. ;D

How do you guys see the Rea/Rossi "incident"? Everyone agreed that it was a race incident, but you can clearly see Rossi on the race line and Rea "rubbing" him. It was not a big deal considering the run-off.

I think it was a non incident.

The look Rae gave Rossi during qualy was a bigger deal IMO.

I think Rossi thought he could brake deep and pass on the outside.  It didn't work out and he ran off track.  Just a miscalculation in my opinion.

I saw it as Marquez not able to pass him unless he bumped him out of the way.  Otherwise known as "his classic cut back douche move."  (see credit below)

I guess I've just become accustom to the boredom or a hate the little D-Bag Jr. so much that when he sneezes it bothers me? 



Although, it didn't bother me when Jorge and Rossi were rubbing elbows?

i was gonna bring that up  ;)

it's certainly ok that you don't like him (because you need my approval.. lol), but i don't get it personally.  the guy is phenomenal and he wants to win.  there's way too many fast as shit riders out there who don't have the killer instinct.  getting to GP is one thing.  winning is another.

unfortunately i have to agree.  something happened to him after 2010.   :'(

also underscores how hard it is to win there.  seeing the aliens do a processional every weekend totally skews the viewer's perspective.  running an entire race in 1st place with zero mistakes is mind-blowingly difficult.

...what he said.^ ;)
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

That's how they earned the nickname.

All you can do is add whatever exhaust system you want, and fuel (maybe also spark) map to the Spec ECU.

Otherwise, it's a sealed Honda 600 lump from the engine provider, Geo Technology.
