Question Dani Pedrosa - 2011 MotoGP champ?

So, Pedrobot looked pretty spectacular at Estoril...He proved he can fight for a lead for a whole race, and he just seems more mature this year...So, given his history of being an alien, and constantly finishing the year at number 2, will this be Dani's year to be champ?

No, hes good and he should be, he's consistent and a top finisher. But there are others that are luckier than him.

On a side note, did you notice how much faster the hondas are this year than the rest of the crowd?

HRC definitely has their stuff together this year. I do feel like Stoner and even Simo might steal some points away from Danny though, whereas Jorge will not have to worry about sharing with Ben or Colin.

I still feel he is a long shot and remember there are still tracks on the calender that do not favor his type of riding or at least the type of tracks that dont give his style and weight advantage quite the upper hand...

It pains me to say...but....If someone aboard a Honda has to win, I'd rather it be him than that little bitch Stacy Moaner. I can't stand that whiney little fucker.

Nah....on second thought....If a Honda has to win, I'd rather it be Simoncelli....if that dude would just learn to calm the fuck down he could win....it's obvious he has the talent..and the machinery....necessary to run at the front. He just goes all red mist across the eyes and wrecks too often.

I'm honestly BORED with the MotoGP class...the REAL racing is in Moto2...did you see Ianonne storm from 14th on the grid...to 16th after the start...all the way to lead before binning it in the chicane?

I'm telling you, there is more RACING in 2 or 3 laps of a Moto2 race than there is an entire 28-30 lap MotoGP race.

Yeah, the MotoGP bikes are BEASTS and the technology is cool....but what's the point when the "races" are largely decided before they begin?

Oly reason I cant root for Pedro is that Spanish peacock Puig. I hates 'im! Dani is ok as a rider, no personality robot but I kinda prefer him to Jorge, definitely a Simoncelli fan. Wish Spies and Hayden could do better...

But Dani may have already had a championship if not for Puig's coaching. He is like an overbearing parent, pushing their kid to succeed, with opposite results.

I can root for Dani over Jorge any day. And he may just take the title this year. If he can stay healthy
