well shit, my poll was going to be, can dani pedrosa get his first win of the season?

little halp mods?


in addition, in our unoffcial year ling poll(dovi vs cal) dovi has 2 seconds and a win at the last three british grand prix(win was at donnington), how can he do?
and with rain forecast on sunday, can rossi get another podium?

...poll response. no.
i feel like pedrosa's not going to get his pre-requisite two wins this year.

unofficial poll. crutchlow...

...and i'm doing a rain dance.
 
Hope it's rainy and windy, just to mix things up again. :teeth
 
Is Silverstone an active airport?

Edit: Why yes, it was. Hence the name. Never knew that! They keep the runways and airfields painted just for old time's sake.

Silverstone is built on the site of a World War II Royal Air Force bomber station, RAF Silverstone, which opened in 1943. The airfield's three runways, in classic WWII triangle format, lie within the outline of the present track.

Silverstone was first used for motorsport by an ad hoc group of friends who set up an impromptu race in September 1947. One of their number, Maurice Geoghegan, lived in nearby Silverstone village and was aware that the airfield was deserted. He and eleven other drivers raced over a two mile circuit, during the course of which Geoghegan himself ran over a sheep that had wandered onto the airfield. The sheep was killed and the car written off, and in the aftermath of this event the informal race became known as the Mutton Grand Prix.[4]

Oh, those silly brits...
 
Are they only bringing the new fronts to this race or are they still offering both?

I'd shit myself if he did. Literally, I'd intentionally shit myself.


A Tech3 win would be huge. It would be the first since 2006 and it would absolutely kill all of the talk of the Honda being the best bike on the grid.
 
Cal will have a little extra umph this round. Hopefully he doesn't turn that fire into a crash ala Mr. Spies.

Will Spies beat one of the Tech3 bikes?
 
im just hoping cal doesnt go breaking something again at his home GP
 
Perhaps a silly question, but why don't they run the F1 layout? Not enough runoff at bridge or something? More overtaking into the arena and brooklands?

Do Rossi and Lorenzo have updated engines for this race?
Click to expand...

the new ducati engine wont be ready until laguna from what I have read, though they do have electronic updates now.

jorge didn't feel the new engine garnered any real improvement.

dovi and cal DO have the new factory electronics, I know know dovi said he will.

The F1 layout is dead boring for bikes.
