    Moto GP 7/19/09

    So it looks like the regular dudes in the top 4 again.
    1. Rossi
    2. Lorenzo
    3. Pedrosa
    4. Stoner

    And Nicky even had a good weekend, coming in at number 8.
    He might even make it to the podium before the season is over.

    Yeah, it's gotten pretty predictable. Marco Melandri is making decent strides on the Kawi though.
    AND, I think Pedrosa cracked a smile in the post race interview. A rarity indeed.

    This has been a very injury laden season with lots of water thrown in.

    8 races to go and Dani is up on Nicky by 2.5 full races.....I'm looking for a walk off at the end of Round 14. Laguna was just the icing on the cake. Nothing but love for all of the haters and doubters.



    Gotta love that 3

    I deleted that last post....you are absolutely right, nothing wrong with a former World Champion thinking that 2 top tens is a good result. My Bad. Come on Drew, this is only a little ribbing amongst good friends.

    That would be alright with me if they gave him points for sticking the landing.

    As long as he lands on Pedrosa; I'll take it

    By the way, had a track day yesterday in New Jersey and who do I meet in the local Wawa? Rodger Lee Hayden!

    Nice kid, AMA races/ practice were the next day.
