stupra Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Moto GP's on tomorrow people, the most awsome motor sport in the world, an Rossi is on a steamer after having a crap start to his title defence. If you've never watched it before, give it a look, you wont be dissapointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Got to love it eh, just a tad more interesting than F1. Absolute nut cases the lot of them! Did you see the 250cc race at Turkey(I think) when three of them had a coming together at 150mph, sideways on the grass and out of the seat, balls of steel!

andrew7 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 After folowing F1 as a kid in the 60-70's, I find todays F1 an absolute joke in comparison. Moto GP however...classssss.......more excitement in one lap than a whole F1 GP.... Watched a few TT races on M&M..awesome...makes F1 drivers look like pussys.....

rik Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Absolutely the best form of motorsport there is. Proper racing where the riders ride their own race without a multitude of engineers and team managers telling them what to do over a radio. When the flag drops, the Bull s**t stops. I for one will be watching tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Never really got into bike racing. Grew up on F1, but the last few years have been boring as hell.. I think since Senna's been gone I've lost interest. I'll watch it if it's on, but it's not the must watch that it used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethr Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Watched a few TT races on M&M..awesome... The TT is just mind-boggling. Bruce Anstey was clocked at 206 mph on the Sulby Straight this year. This is part of the Sulby Straight....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobgoblin Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Flat out sideways, the only way to live. Went to Silverstone last weekend, the occasion was great, with all the support races and air displays etc, but the race itself was lousy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitesupraboy2 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 ok it was good and more overtaking then F1 but not by much, at some points it was like F1 following each other round You still get your groups of riders together following each other as well. The bit that makes it more interesting is fact they can do show boating at the end. F1 you cant as they need engines for next race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 i loved that, but was talking to my dad when he got it well sideways used to have a good video of Garry Mcoy sideways, but lost it when my Hard disc died Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stupra Posted June 18, 2006 Author Share Posted June 18, 2006 It wasn't as good as it usually is WSB2, the crash at the start stopped the race being as good as the last one. Melandri, Capparossi an Gibernau would of been up the front, which would of meant alot more overtaking, an Pedrosa would probably of gone better on his No.1 bike. The result would of been the same though, even without the guys binning it, a Rossi win, the man dominated, and his rear wheel steering at the end was awsome !. Cant wait till next weekend for the next round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Prawn Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 FYI. Capirossi is ok. Melandri dislocated shoulder. Gibernau broken collarbone and the ambulance crashed on the way to hospital!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
