A gentle reminder of the "Spoiler" rule...

THIS IS A SPOILER Do NOT read, if you don't want to know.

Look out, boys, here come the Ducs: While one Duc went out, they were 1,2 on the grid. 4 banger beats 5 banger. Amazing.

I also predict Roberts is going to be a force to contend with. Roberts chassis is their "older" set-up. Two races from now, I bet the field is saying, "oh sh!t, here comes King and Prince Kenny, AGAIN."

Caparossi on the Duc. Pedrosa 2nd. Hayden 3rd. Roberts 8th.

Sorry, typo because of little sleep and watching Caparossi slide that bike around at 120 mph.

even a typo is still incorrect. What 2 banger? The Ducati's are all V4s . . .

OK, I see you fixed it

Re: SPOILER: 2006 Jerez Results
Anyone else glad Rossi got "de-throned"? IMO it'll serve as an ego-check for the season...at least I hope. Way to go Pedrosa. I'm glad Nicky didn't have the win-it or bin-it attitude, but a few more laps and he would've been lapped. Boy's gotta keep up.

And, considering the rough time Nicky seemed to be having during testing, I'm glad he hung on for third. Pedrosa, well, what can you say? He rode great. I hope Nicky can step it up, but a good first result, nonetheless.

Great race...while I wanted one of the Repsol guys to win, I'm pretty happy for Loris...

The last 250 champ to win his MotoGP debut was Max Biaggi. I wouldn't put all my eggs in the Pedrosa basket just yet.

Damn. Tony Soprano gets shot in the first episode, Rossi hits the deck in the first corner.

Looks like the payback machine is kickin' in.


Way to go, Pedrosa and Stoner. And Elias gets on a honda and the kid's got some chops.

This is going to be an excellent season.
