Rossi is a character. And, he ran away with his titles - even if he didn't run away with his races.

See, I'm one of those that would rather see someone win the title by WINNING the fucking title, and maybe even dominate, rather than win because they consistently stayed upright.

MotoGP is a cast of characters. I mean, the reason Pedrosa got such a bad rap early was because he was SO serious (and continues to be). It's good to see Lorenzo hang in the front, and even more adding to that cast with the likes of Divizioso hanging in there.... I thought it was a good race. :shrug:

yeah I hear ya... Hayden's championship was kinda that way... he didn't win ALL that many races... he was just consistently on the podium...

I guess the thing that made it so un entertaining is that once casy got by Rossi... you knew it was over... he pulled on Rossi quickly... and if Lorenzo hadn't gotten by when he did... he wouldn't have even seen -1sec from Stoner.

Yeah the 3 rookies were doing very well. My money would be on Lorenzo this year.

Consistency is a huge part of racing. Did everyone forget that Rossi had an 8 point lead going into the last race of 06? Perhaps the greatest choke ever pulled off in Motorcycle racing.
It's good to see some new guys up front. Should be an entertaining season.
