not_scooter_Scura! Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Watch out for Craig Jones on the Petronas in WSB. Every time I have watched him race he is spectacular- backs it into the corners, is always sideways on the brakes and always gets lightening starts. Doesn't take any prisoners either. Maybe he is the guy to help move Petronas up a notch this year- even if not it will be a treat watching him. Guy 74078[/snapback] that's what I was thinking, I noticed during a WSS round 'this guy on an n-gage Honda' just nailing it around wild style....it was Mr Jones! good luck to him & Petronas this year. I ike my n-gage too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nogbad Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Despite all the articles to the contrary, the imminent death of MotoGP would seem to have been exaggerated. Looks like a decent size field to me and enough to ensure some good racing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducati will be gone, Honda will be owning the serie again and it will be back to business as usual.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted February 1, 2006 Author Share Posted February 1, 2006 Looks like Rossi is doing OK driving the F1 Ferrari but Max doesn't think so!! Rossi's drive - Max's comments!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jihem Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Rossi's drive - Max's comments!! 76816[/snapback] max !!! he's becoming a running joke... pffrrrr. i like him a lot but he's getting very ridiculous.. that time posted by Valentino Rossi is AMAZING. How can he drive a 2004 car only 1 sec slower than Ol' Schumi in the 2006 Ferrari ? Even if the track was wet, or whatever conditions, it's nothing short of incredible. i'm afraid this year we'll be seing the last of Rossi on two wheels before he goes to F1 and becomes World Champion in 2008...

v50man Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Max is testing for Jordan -- err, Midland -- again. But, at 34 years of age, it is extremely doubtful as to whether they would gample on him. In fact, there's probably a better chance of resurrecting Gerhard Berger. In other words, no way. Sad to see him fade away like this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time is running out on him. Sir John Surtees made the switch at age 26, Vale's current age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
