Default MotoGP

MotoGP 2012 starts this weekend, and with it the new 250 class, Moto3. I should be able to catch the later at some pub, but the main event will be after closing time, and way past my bed time.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the Moto3 class goes.

Casey Stoner is looking well set to defend his title on the new 1,000cc Honda, which is good for 220 mph (over 350 clicks). It will be interesting to see if Ducati have managed to sort Rossi's machine enough to be in with the front runners. There will be a few more on the grid this year, so should be a good one.

The new softer Bridgestone tyres should be interesting too.

Ya, I hope Ducati get it sorted out, I always enjoyed watching Rossi and Stoner duke it out.

It makes me sick that it's hard to distinguish,
An honest leader who preaches a cause,
That's not made and not based,
On the profit they'll receive from telling the world.

What line divides you from the seeders,
Who sow without growing believers,
You point and you judge,
Forgetting that their faith is molded by your lead.

You can, for a fee, but looks like it could be quite a good way to do it. Try this link:

motogp.com · Welcome to a new era in MotoGP™

I don't have an internet connection that is fast or reliable enough, so its the pub for me.

Looks reasonable.

It's on TV here, the Speedchannel. Usually meet at a bar but I usually record them and watch them at home a couple times......I'm a wanna-be Rossi (in my dreams).

Up late (1.45am)Watching it now.

Crutchlow is surprising, as is Bradl.

GO LORENZO!
