Used to be Toby Moody and Julian Ryder.. That was like 8 yrs ago, (not seen Eurosport since i moved to the USA) so may have changed. and i'd have to say they're probably the two best commentators in sport today.. at least IMHO ! :p

He as in Toby Moody, signed a Rossi poster for me when i met him up in London for a Rossi / Honda British GP promo event. He was a real nice guy to talk too, and along with Gavin Emmett (motogp.com and the world feed), you'll probably not find a more knowledgeable two on MotoGP elsewhere !
 
Yeah, it's still Toby and Julian - feels like two proper bike-nerd mates are watching the races with you, doesn't it?
They commented on Cortese maybe moving up to Moto2 next year, but didn't know the details. I tweeted them the story, and they relayed it on air - I felt like one of the crew for a minute or two!
then I just carried on with the ironing...

Was scrappy to say the least, good to see Kent get his first win. Poor Cal running out of gas on the last lap :(. Heck of a ride from Marquez going almost dead last to 9th in one lap and then winning :eek:

Another example of how a class with no minimum weight limit gives a huge advantage to someone small. Sure he's talented but the rules flatter him and almost make it easy for him. I suspect he'll get found out on the Honda in MotoGP.
 
Aye it does seem silly to not have a weight limit considering the class has controlled engines and ECUs. Will be interesting to see how he gets on next year and compares to Pedrosa
 
a year already RIP Marco

Stoner is so much faster than everyone else it's ridiculous :eek: The onboard laps were beautiful to watch like him or not

Loved how he threw it down the road, went back to the pits, got on his #2 bike and then set his fastest time on was it the the first or second flying lap...

Buck tooth whinger but v fast for sure, fair do's to him for walking away when he's still got years left in him.
:)
 
Well done Cal a great 3rd place and to watch cassy go around stoner corner is just awesome.
It's on BBC 2 iPlayer now.

Second flying lap, his first was still faster than everyone but Lorenzo I think :p. The most impressive stat they said on Europsport that he has lead every lap but 2 in the last 6 years of going there, that's some domination. Shame Dani threw it down the road, was hoping he'd make Lorenzo fight for it. Good job by Cal especially with man flu :)
 
Bit of a let down that it wont be decided at the last race. I think Pedrosa new he'd after win the race himself (Can't imagine Stoner giving him the win in Aus) and a win for himself and a 3rd for lorenzo would've given him a shot in the final race.

Oh well, see how things go next year, I think Cal's had a lucky escape from the Ducati, it just gets worse.
 
last race of the season this Sunday.
then on Tuesday its the first test for the 2013 teams with there 2013 bikes
cant wait for the test to see how rossi goes back on the yam and dovi on the ducati.
Marquez on the Honda also
 
good end race im not normally a betting man but decide to bet for the last race of the season
danny kent £4 at 33/1 ;)
marquez £4 at 23/2 ;)
and cal £2 at 33/1
wish i put a couple of quid on nakasuga to come second was like 200/1 :P
