That last one is fantastic.

I couldn't watch the first as the sound made me rip my ears off.

It is almost as if the guy lets them through just to overtake them again. I think for the Jerez one, he would have put himself and Sete off if needed as he vowed to never let him win another race again!

Honda RC211V - 990cc V5 - 145kg - 240+ hp!!

that Jerez race was the first race of last season, i remember watching it at the time - Gibernau (along with thousands of spanish fans) was NOT happy with that last corner maneuver - excellent stuff

BTW the yellow Camel Bike is the Yamaha M1 and its an inline 4 not a V5.

I look forward to seeing Rossi in F1 the sport needs some characters.

well i for 1 hope he doesnt go to F1,its bland to watch,more about pit stops and launch control than actual ability, Moto Gp however is edge of your seat racing most of the time and Rossi makes it even more interesting as you dont know how hard he is pushing and if hes just messing with the other riders etc.

Don't like to kick a man when he is down but Biaggi was on a Repsol Honda in '05

The M1 although an in-line 4 sounds the way it does because its a twin pulse (pairs of cylinders fire at the same time)
