do we really have to go through this?

electronics failures, 2 engines, technical fkups, oh and an injury.

In his own words, its the first time all year he has felt fully fit and found a decent base setting.

Fair points, but considering his form against Dovi at Tech3, I doubt the results would have been any different. One result does not make a season.

Why does everyone remember the st years? After that year with dovi he really came on the next season.

I do think redding is our best hope but don't understand all the hating on crutchlow. He's had an awful year and the bike he's on isn't comparable to dovis.

But why is his bike without upgrades etc?

Cos he cant keep his trap shut and get on with it, that's why.

I like him, but he moans too much.

[Johno]

His bike doesn't have the upgrades because he's leaving for another manufacturer.

Like Iannone has the upgrades because he's joining the factory team.

Fair point.
At Tech 3 it was all about how only a Factory seat would do etc etc etc, then when he gets there, he bhes and moans IN PUBLIC, about the team. And then there's shock horror as to him not getting upgrades etc.
Yes, as LB has said, CC has always been very vocal, but this is the big leauges. Learning how to act as a professional is part of the deal and i think it's something Cal has damaged himself badly on.
Sometimes, it's better to keep your thoughts private and discuss it in house rather than go straight to Twitter and try to shame people publically.
Great rider, shyte PR team...

Yup

Millers in for a bit of a shock next year if he continues his petulant behaviour in with the big boys

Should also be very interesting to see how he and Crutchlow get on as team mates

Depends whose beating who..... But Miller seems very similar in demeanour to Stoner

Which only really works when you're winning,

In terms of moaning, he's definitely up there with Casey. In his defence, he also has a sense of humour, as witnessed on MotoGP Tonight when (can't remember the exact details) he made a crack to the British studio audience about being an ex-convict and wasn't sure if he was allowed back on home soil (or something).

I, for one, welcome our new aussie MotoGP Overlord.

The masterstroke for me is the fact Gabbarini will be his crew chief.... yup, Caseys genius crew chief...

Only a genius if he gets results and teaches the petulant little boy some manners

100% this.

What's with all the Millwr hating too. I hope he does well, the more potential winners we have the better the racing is likely to be.

Ohh, don't get me wrong.... He's a breath of fresh air, I really like him, he's a funny bright guy..... I'm also a massive stoner fan...

I also have a gut feeling that once jack gets to Grips with his MotoGP bike.....Crutchlow will be No 2 in the team

And then the moaning will really start.

Good to hear Rossi is ok.

Pleased for Jorge, after all the internal ste he has put up with from VR's side he has shown he really is the man to take it to Marquez long term.

+1 as a long time fan of Rossi, can't understand the bad feeling towards Jorge. After all, he was one of very few that made the effort to attend Simoncelli's funeral, which spoke volumes for me about his character.
He deserved the win. [and any other]

No word about Rossi? He goes down and doesn't move and then they carry on talking about the rest of the race

Good point. The fact that we were watching RossiGP and he crashed, means the race should be immediately stopped until he's fit to ride again. A minutes silence would've been appropriate too. Why did Yamaha not immediately protest the race continuation?

You'd think this was a race series and not just a showcase for Rossi and his PR machine.
