Let's talk facts not emotion ok I'd love to see the answers. Who has
most victories
Most poles
Most front row starts least front rows
Fastest sectors
Top speed
Laps lead
I know the answer to most of them. Answer them honestly. Let's see how many rossi leads.
When you come up with the answer tell me how you think a guy that leads in none of them should be considered the best this year.
Pesky facts really do suck unless they prove your point

right. so in 2006, the championship was clearly awarded to the wrong person, based upon these pesky facts.

I'm not so sure Lorenzo's "safe" pace will be enough to stay in front of Marquez, Dani, and Iannone going all out with nothing to lose. Lorenzo could be fourth depending on how much he's willing to risk. Who knows... maybe it will rain? :D

Lorenzo will be even more cautious if it rains; he clearly hasn't forgotten that in a downpour at Sepang, his second title literally almost slipped out from under him.

And if he conservatively rides to a 4th place finish whilst Marquez, Pedrosa, and Iannone fight it out for podium spots, Rossi can slowly work his way up to 9th and quietly take the championship.

Looks like its going to rain on Saturday the 7th and good chance for the Nov 8th lol..
 
No captain people are saying he's the best rider right now but now he may not win. if he wins do to consistency then so be it but If he loses then not only was he not the fastest he wouldn't be most consistent either. Nicky was the most consistent that year so he won. rossi may be ahead in points today but it's not over. Doesn't matter if you're in first at the all star break it matters where you finish. If rossi doesn't win it's his own fault for doing something stupid. Also if he didn't do that thing in misano that cost him a point he would start where ever he qualified. So if this was his only incident it wouldn't have mattered. Obviously he did something else.

Mark, all this means nothing. The Champion is who has the most points at the end of the day. That means the Champ has been the most consistent rider and finishes races. All those other misc. things you mentioned above mean nothing in the end. Well, maybe most wins in the event of a tie.
 
Yea lj I know and we shall see after the last race. I'm saying he leads in none of those categorys as of now he is first but it's not over. On a side note I hear you are doing really well racing good to hear.
Spj I know all about the ignore list best feature on here
 
VR has been praised by many in this forum for getting in the head of his contenders. this time, someone else (this is MM) got into his head and made him lose his nerves on Thursday. During the race MM made him pay for his attacks by actually toying with him and making him lose his temper in front of the world. and all this happening while the biggest ....... on earth (Lorenzo) is laughing his ass off, while Dani, the nicest, most unappreciated racer in the paddock and a true sportman, won the race but was ignored as usual. And for the rest of us, a piss off contest between the unconditionals of VR and the rest of the world.
MM: grow up and use your talent for what God intended it to be used.
Lorenzo: even if you win, VR is better than you
Dani: you are a champion at every level
VR: pathetic display of weakness. you should apologize and cut the crap.
the VR unconditionals: I am ready for the punches!

Michael and Eugene Laverty are not only good riders, they're far more objective voices and both have a history of good on-track manners.

Quoting Casey Stoner's opinion on this subject? You'd get less biased statements out of Max Biaggi. Here's a guy with remarkable riding talent that rises to the top, beats Rossi in 2007...only to get taken down again, and all the love and adulation of the world's bike fans never materializes - they all still love Rossi. So yeah, he's a little bitter.

You know, I realized that winning and talent is only a part of the equation of determining fandom, and a minor one at that. I like Rossi because he's smart, and if I were to ride the canyons one day with someone, I'd pick Rossi. Pedrosa wouldn't be as jovial and fun but he's a good guy; he'd be fun to ride with too.

Stoner? A day riding with Stoner. Well, whining about gas, whining about his gear not fitting right, whining about the weather, whining about traffic, whining about where we're going to eat, ad nauseum.

Or the best, Lorenzo. You get to listen to him talk about how awesome he is all freaking day long, how he nailed every curve perfectly, how he got so far ahead of you then had to wait for you.

It's no mystery why there are so many rabid Rossi fans. He's LIKEABLE as a person.

Great post, and I agree lol, especially about Stoner. But I was left unsatisfied without knowing what you think it would be like to ride with Marc??
