Pod-bot hurt!

MOTOGP: Updated: Pedrosa in doubt after deep cut.

And, Hayden doesn't seem to be on pace.

Seamus must've taken out the "other" black choppers and the tables might turn here.

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.

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

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.

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.

So now if Hayden wins the championship it gives the euro weenies something to blame it on.

We'll talk about that when NH is standing on the highest step on the podium , which is something I am rooting for believe it or not, even though I am "Euro peeing".

I'm just hoping that Pedrosa's injury doesn't spoil his normally upbeat and friendly demeanor.

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.

That must have hurt like a mofo. Scary.

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.
