| Re: Pod-bot hurt! Huge deal here. "If" Repsol was playing and trying to get Nicky out.... It just backfired. HRC needs the championship more then Repsol needed Pod-Bot to win. Hayden has 35 points on Rossi, two solid podiums and Hayden has the championship. I don't think the plot thickens, I think it becomes clearer.
Sucks that Dani got hurt, but I'd be smiling under my visor a little more if I were Nicky. |

| Re: Pod-bot hurt! He stubbed his toe and got a couple stitches. I bet he races. Though he will not be at 100% So Hayden should lengthen the lead over him and Rossi

| Re: Pod-bot hurt! He'll race and he'll be fast. Malaysia is a very vegetable-friendly environment.
Maybe his crew won't think about screwing around with Team Kentucky's transporter this week, though. |

He's removed the skin and some muscle from his right knee and has some fractured toes on his right foot. Because they stitched his knee by pulling skin and using four stitches he cannot bend it for now.
That must have hurt like a mofo. Scary.  |

| Re: Pod-bot hurt! This is a similar injury to what Melandri had last year after a tangle with Rossi. It took him 4 rounds with a three week break in between to fully recover. |

| Re: Pod-bot hurt! So now if Hayden wins the championship it gives the euro weenies something to blame it on. |

| Re: Pod-bot hurt! I'm just hoping that Pedrosa's injury doesn't spoil his normally upbeat and friendly demeanor. |

| Re: Pod-bot hurt! That does not mean that I don't want Pedro to come back and put a worthy fight to the end though. I just hope the Mafia doesn't take advantage of this and spanks everybody. |

I've done that too (except I had 5 stitches  ). a week later the stitches were out and I was walking. albeit with a limp cause I hadn't bent me knee in a week. but I had no reason to risk pulling the stitches like he does. He had a championship to contend for, I had 3 days of hardcore and metal to go see with my own college graduation sandwiched in between.
He'll be out there mixing it up with the rest of them tomorrow and sunday. He'll still finish in mid-lowpack top 10.
