Biatchi is finished. Maybe a WSB ride, but if you thought he was a whiny little bitch in GP, wait until he gets to a "lesser" series.

Re: Tobacco sponsor eess...I do not liieekk...
This is such a strange outcome.. Galoises ( admittedly the crappiest cig made outside of the eastern bloc) is owned by Altadis, who have successfully sued a rider ( Barros? Laconi? I forget) over the very same breach of contract issues. Also, if Rossi's reported involvement with Ferrari is anything but a publicity stunt, Marlboro would be less than thrilled with his association with a very competitive brand.


On the other hand, he does like yellow.

So Phobe's comments about the guy that painted his Kawi to look like a Yamaha will now apply to his own bike. Sweet.

Re: Tobacco sponsor eess...I do not liieekk...
I figured the dumping of Galouisswadfes (sp?) by Yamaha was a baganning
tactic to see who else might step up and provide some cash in sponsorship money.
