Wow, look at the Kawi go...
CEII in 13th Looks like he is on fire.

[Heavy-Dee]

The pod hasn't sped up, where as Nicky has. Even Vale is slow to increase the pace...but we've seen that before.

[ReaperAZ]

Yeah Team Green is looking good for now.

[phobiaphobe]

Pedrosa seems to be sucking hind tit.

Fine by me.

Dude's probably still bleeding into his leathers. Too bad, because it'll cost him huge this weekend. Could take him out of the running.

What happen to Pedro? If he starts that low on the grid, good luck scoring points. If Rossi also starts that low, Nicky has a good chance to increase his point lead. I'm going out on a limb here, but i think Sete might finish on the podium.

He highsided last week and put a big hole in his knee. I think he broke some bones in his right foot as well.

If you keep feeding that stray dog he'll never go away.

Are you referring to the Jibs? Shame he's on such a nice machine... if he can't win on the Ducati, it's time to take a break. I'd rather have Biaggi back than have to watch Jibs fold so sadly every week. My bet is he runs at the front for a while, until the commentators utter the fatal words "could this mark Gibernau's return to the podium?", after which he will go motocrossing or run out of fuel.

Actually I was referring to the Prattling Rectum a few posts up.

They are reporting that it's actually his broken left big toe that is causing him more pain than the knee. Try to shift with a broken big toe...

Looks like Dr. Costa is going to have to make another great cocktail.

Go Nicky!!!

That actually brings up something that's been on my mind lately... what are the FIM's or MotoGPs rules regarding drug use and riding? Seems these guys go out jacked up on painkillers all the time... At what point are they deemed unsafe for the track? Are there "performance enhancing rules" so someone can be disqualified for using certain drugs?

I've never seen it done. Is it a total free-for-all?

Some dudes actually got busted for EPO in some endurance round this year.

Actually, someone was bounced in the past 2 years for testing positive for marijuana. Wasn't it one of the Goberts? I know this was AMA, but I believe the FIM does random testing. I also vaguely remember something about Scott Russell when he did his 30 day stint with Suzuki in the GPs.

[nhfirefighter13]

I always thought the "pain killers" in this sort of instance was some sort of local anesthesia?

[BIGSAPOTEER]

How much do pain killers affect a rider? I'm sure that halfway through the race, it wears off right? Is a rider able to keep the same concentration towards the end of the race?

What about Max Biaggi?
He tested positive for a banned substance that is in Benadryl. They threatened to bar him from the race. I'm not sure if he raced that weekend or not.

Go Nicky go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's hope for a nice little jump in the points lead this weekend......
