It's the before and after bits that piss people off. Maybe he should take a leaf from the Stigs book and just ride. Stay anonymous and keep the trap shut.
I don't think I've ever heard him talking.

To those of you asking why there is a thumbs down, the answer is blatantly obvious

The OP clearly has a dislike for the whining knob jockey
How can you here him whining when he is riding a GP bike? Seriously, those things are loud.

Or people could ignore the hype and bullst and stop treating racing like a fking soap opera.

And where is the fun in that??
This is BB, and if there's no reason for a pitch fork wielding mob mentality, there's no point being here at all biggrin

True.

I despise punditry. I usually tune in to sports events about 30 seconds before they start.

Racing is a soap opera I'm sure it went on way before but from just what I've watched from Rossi punching biaggi right up to where he killed Ian beales kid.

Nothing but good for the endurance racing though. A lot more eyes and ears will take note this year

Will CS learn sufficient Japanese so that the crowd understands his whinging clearly ?

However all pi$$ taking aside I look forward to seeing him try his hand on a proddy based bike.

The Suzuka 8hr is as hardcore as it comes.

Was it Johnny Rae who was having ice baths between sessions? Or McGuiness?? Can't remember, but it's certainly not for the limp wristed

Three hours at our leisurely pace was knackering at Oulton last year. The six hour at Donny will hurt this year, 8 hours at Suzuka at their pace? Kin ell

Have you any idea of which endurance rounds you are doing Loon? Wouldn't mind coming along to one.

Why's that a thumbs down? He's one of the most talented bike riders around and the sport will be better off for having him racing again.
No idea why the thumbs down. I can only put it down to the fact that early morning posting on an iPad and a half asleep me don't mix. Definitely not a 'thumbs down' piece of news from my perspective.

Seems CS wanted to ride Dani's bike this weekend . He said it would've been an honour to ride to replace Dani.
Bummer I'm not racing, no prep was needed as I wasn't planning on winning, just replacing a good friend he said.

Wonder why things didn't work out?
