What else would he say??

I'm still waiting for him to fall off and say "F**k...this bike is a POS...I feckin' hate it!!"....that would be awesomeness beyond compare.

There was a well known NASCAR driver back in the day who did sommit like that....he blamed his tyres when interviewed....Dunlop or whoever grabbed him and said "Don't say that you blew a tyre...it makes us look bad!"...the next week the same thing happened at the very same turn IIRC....what happened??

"Blew a wheel..." Total class!!

I admire Marquez's riding.. everytime he gets on a bike he's comfortable with you can tell and I simply love watching it!

Okay, Lorenzo might win more convincingly the majority of the time but it's boring. Don't get me wrong, if I could be as smooth as he is I'd be thrilled.

I agree Cav.....if Rossi is 'The Doctor', then Lorenzo is a feckin' surgeon.....precise to the point of boredom...and I don't necessarily mean that derogatorily.

Lorenzo reminds me of Prost in F1. He would hit the same spot at every corner, lap after lap.

That's a good call....not sure if Prost did some of the driving in "Ronin", might have been...but whichever F1 driver they used Frankenheimer made the same comment about the stunts he performed....I guess they just kept moving the camera ever closer without an issue...to the point they had to back it up to fit the whole car in the shot.

Ronin is one of my fave films of all time.
