I Think he went for the cash, if Rossi couldn't hack how did Crutchlow honestly think he could? he,s good but he not that good, which begs the question why have I got him in the fantasy league ? cos Im a numpty

That's a shame if it is the case. He looked like he would have been one of the front runners.

Let's hope they get something sorted out so we can see him race.

I have no idea why he moved over to Ducati. He spent last season changing his riding style, which goes some way to explaining why he fell off so many times. Surely he wanted a full season of simply racing rather than a complete change of bike and set up around him?

Surely he knew this before he signed.

I want him to do well but I hope he doesn't start moaning about poor performance when he knew this bike's weakness before agreeing to ride it. Surely he also talked about his style and how development would be directed before agreeing to anything.

He was obviously trying to do what he did the 2nd half of last year and break away early, shame as if him, bradl and smith had stayed upright would have been a free for all towards the end lol

... I've never seen any black box information used in civil proceedings. I need to speak to an accident investigator this week. If I remember I'll ask him the question to see what the present position is.

He's been on the local news protesting at the fragging site.

I could actually see a load of daft mancs voting him in

As Hodgson just pointed out.

You get riders like Rossi about once every 20 years and we are lucky enough to be able to see his replacement genius actually dicing with him at the front.

Ooooh Cal didn't seem happy when hodgson just interviewed him wonder that was all about

Maybe the pressure got to him as he has been faultless and not a crasher.

That or unlucky with marbles and sand on the track after the heavy rain

Jesus I bet that's hurting him

If testing is anything to go buy he has to definitely be considered for a top 6 finish if not a podium.

I also fancy him for pole.

I didn't realise he'd insisted on rim tape on his M1!

Yeah I miss Toby also shame they didn't take him and Julian as a team. Yet Toby is busy working with other channels I believe

I thought this was gonna be about him coming out of the closet.

I had heard he was gunna give it something like 6 races and if he wasnt at the sharp end call it a day and the end of the season, Personally Id love to see him move over to World Supers but I think he will end up on 4 wheels after his time in GP comes to an end

He is 35 now but it would still be a shame not having him in motogp

... Best coverage I have seen and love the new 3d graphics nearly as much as Mel Sykes. They have done a very good job but I did miss Toby Moody him and Julian Ryder were a great commentary partnership.

You have. I was trying to lure him in gently.

I am hereby awarding James 100 PP's...my fave little Spudlet will be at Doni, oooh yeah

100 PP's will still leave him with negative equity
