Hayden and Edwards need to do something.

Nicky has 1 year on the bike already, and Colin, well, you are better than this. They need to get something going or it's going to be a disappointing season for both.

[Heavy-Dee]

Nicky actually had a good race last round I thought. Considering he hardly has any experience in the wet. He made one mistake a lost a bunch of positions then got a bunch back for a 5th(?). Not bad. There were others behind him that are "better" riders.

They'll come around. I too thought that Nicky had a good ride at Jerez. Although testing went well for both of them, actually racing is another. The data collected from a given track during testing can become largely useless for the actual race because of new arriving parts that weren't available for testing, weather, yata, yata, yata......

[asiliat]

I only caught the end of Jerez, and I thought Nicky did decent.

Colin may have a harder time adjusting, due to age and lack of experience w/ the machinery. I'm sure he'll come around soon enough. If not, he'll just be another MotoGP tradgedy.

Le Mans could be wet

Yeah that sounds like him knowing

Sounds like he is dead on, if either rider doesn't podium this weekend, they can start kissing the championship goodbye. Looks like it will be Rossi, Gibernau, and Biaatchi at this point, same as last year. Maybe next year for Hayden right?

You keep flip flopping on Hayden. First you hate him, then you say you might have underestimated him, now you are laughing at him even having a chance. Make up your mind dude.

Good, they both need it man. What I said wasn't bs, they need to perform if either wants a shot at the title. Good show
