Well, this race should be interesting...Last race of the year...

--Spies will be racing in this one, in case anyone forgot
--Will the top riders be trying at all, or go "easy" so they don't risk crash/possible injury
--Who do you see winning?

 

[L8 Braker]

The race is on Speedtv at 6pm Sunday!!

 

[L8 Braker]

Spies will be riding this...

 

[L8 Braker]

And I'm picking Hayden, with Spies 2nd

 

[HiSpeed48]

i voted Spies

call me crazy

 

[HiSpeed48]

can anyone confirm whether Spies will be on a Factory spec bike or a Satelite spec bike?

satellite bike that rossi "built"

 

[L8 Braker]

i voted Spies

I voted Hayden, but barring mechanical problems, I can see him winning..

However, a few things concern me...
--We know he'll be racing his azz off to show everyone that he deserves to be in the GP paddock
--He'll be on an unfamiliar bike
--He may push too hard on said unfamiliar bike and end up crashing
--If he crashes, he might get hurt - - - Badly

I see Rossi checking Spies out to see what kind of competition he may be.

I'm going to say Stoner as the winner. Nicky 2nd.

I'm taking a Lorenzo/Rossi/Stoner podium. Spies will take 6th, ahead of Edwards and Hayden. Pedrobot 4th.

 

[PhilB]

I picked Stoner; he's on fire right now.

But with the championship in his pocket, Rossi is free to go at it and go for the win without having to worry about losing championship points if he crashes, so I think he'll give Stoner a very hard time, and of course might well take it.

Unless the first group has crashes, I think we'll be seeing the usual Hayden, Edwards, Dovisioso, maybe Elias and Spies, all fighting for 5th.

Live and as they happen, yes I will.:twofinger

 

[AlphaRider]

That is by far THE WORST ARTICLE I've ever read....

There is seriously more stupid statements and predictions in that trash than miens head....

:bitchslap

 

[MJ939]

Not one of Rossi's best tracks... I picked Stoner.

 

[TELLY]

i picked lorentho, and next will be pedrobot. Like said above rossi doesnt do well here.

The spaniards will shine at home.

And i cant belive people are voting for spies to win. Unrealistic if you ask me. Its not a factory bike and a satellite bike hasnt won since what 2006 on the 990's. Aint gonna happen no matter how much talent you have on it. Im going top 6 for spies.

 

[HiSpeed48]

Unrealistic if you ask me.

we can hope, can't we? :cheers

Hayden for 2nd
Edwards for 3rd

Hopkins for 4th... wait.. what?

Just some gossip creating speculation: with a 5 engine limit everyone will be on their last engine. As we've seen with Capirossi you lose 10 points when you go over your engine limits. Spies on the other hand hasn't used any engines. They can give him a top level spec engine like what was being used before the engine rules took effect. A one day motor so to speak. Not saying that is what is going to happen, but it could, and if it does it will make a big difference.

Maybe they are using one of Toseland's motors, they haven't been run too hard.nfloor
