| MotoGP 2005: Who will take 2nd? With three to go...the question is who will take 2nd.... Rider - Points - Victories - 2nds - 3rds
Biaggi --- 159 - 0 - 2 - 2
Melandri - 157 - 0 - 2 - 3
Edwards - 152 - 0 - 1 - 2
Hayden -- 150 - 1 - 0 - 2
Capirossi - 148 - 2 - 1 - 1
UPDATE:
Now with 2 races to go...
Rossi ---- 331
Hayden -- 170
Melandri - 170
Edwards - 162
Biaggi ---- 159
Capirossi - 148
Gibbernau - 137
Pretty interesting that this poll had Hayden & Melandri tied going into PI, and that's how they came out...

| Re: MotoGP 2005: Who will take 2nd? Voted Hayden only because I don't want Melandri to get it. Nothing would make Ratboy happier than seeing his buddy get second.

| Re: MotoGP 2005: Who will take 2nd? I voted for Melandri. He is riding the tires off of that Honda. I wish that Edwards would perform better but it does not look like that will happen. It looks like he is satisfied with coming in 4th or 5th place all the time. |

| Re: MotoGP 2005: Who will take 2nd? gonna have to dig up our thread from the beginning of the year and see if anyone got the order right for the top three at the end of the year.

Those are really his only choices. | Unless Rossi decides to give him another podium...ala Laguna...it's a very real possibility now that he has locked the championship...
