[BUSGO]

Hi Pommie,
Thanks for the update but we don't post up results here till the day after racing so that others can watch later telecasts.

Congrads Pommie on your 125 winner (a little bit over due but well done) man some of rides (kids) are young
Well put my tips in though it would be a wet one (bugger)
went for Stoner Rossi & Vermeulin, hopefully now with Vermeulin up on the first row may help, well go for suzuki
125 race was good, 250 a bit quiet ( thank god for foxtell )

[Rev004]

Well fellars Stoner has finally broken through in fine fashion with a 1/2 second win.

Pommie your right on the money, Simmo maybe Pommie is the one for advise on your tipping.

Whoops sorry about that, Get a bit excitable if a Brit wins anything as its such a rare event.

Avoided this thread until now when I could watch the race (downloaded).

Tosland is still way behind the eightball when it comes to moto gp,maybe next year . I think the Uk press hype is building him up better than he is at this point in time.As seen before ,fantastic superbike riders don't automaticaly become fantastic moto gp riders.Go Rossi & Stoner

I attended the final round of the '06 motogp championship in Valencia. I remember watching Troy Bayliss fill in for Sete Gibernau on the Ducati and kick all their arses. Bayliss had just finished winning the Superbike championship.

Was the only Australian motogp win of the season. Completely over-shadowed by Rossi's championship loss and Hayden becoming world champ, but was still a great race.

And yet at the very next race, Qatar 2007, I think very few people really saw it coming when Stoner jumped on the Ducati for the first time...

Loved Stoner's wheelie at the end - phattest wheelie since Vermeulen's at Le Mans last year (in the wet, no less)
