I like Bradley ,but he has not built this year sadly. Another Brit who appears to have peaked and is now on the down curve.

Who's getting his seat,not heard that mentioned anywhere ?

Can you do that fake foreign accent thing?

You put in loads of pause's and a stupid foreign twang as demonstrated by cal this year.
Good to hear redding and bradders still with a good west country accent.

Where else to go? Though I do like Lorenzo, he's calmed down a bit and can sure ride a bike and he shouldn't be discounted as a contender. No secret I'm a big fan of Rossi but think he dealt Jorge a bit of a rough hand. BIG thing for me besides his abilities is the fact that despite his spats with Simoncelli, he did make the effort to attend the funeral. [many didn't which I find difficult to understand]

Very common for racers not to attend funerals, isn't it? I'd always understood that it is almost a psychological defence mechanism of not facing the reality of what could happen to them if it goes wrong. Equally, it could just be that they weren't friends and they didn't feel it was appropriate to turn up at the funeral. Personally I'd never judge someone for attending or not attending a funeral. It's a personal choice.

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't of called lorenzo and simonchelli friends however lorenzo did the decent thing at the funeral and payed his respects.

Now way Lorenzo's a contender this season however you'd be a fool to count him out in 2015.

Sad day.

From a racing point of view he needs to move on.

From the paddock entertainment point of view and off the bike its another blow to entertainment. The kids have the speed, sponsor friendly faces and quotes but two dimensional personalities.
