TS struggling, Stoner looking good and I hope Hayden has a good season.
Think it will be interesting, but really enjoyed the WSB Sunday.

Pedrosa didn't take part as he's undergoing surgery for a pin insert in his arm and the knee injured last year also needing attention. Stoner looks good on paper,with almost half laps as anyone else, and Hayden is getting there, I hope he does as he is a good rider. Lorenzo was last year poleman, so if that is anything to go by we're in for a good season, with the Suzuki also up there. JT is struggling, I think that having new tires don't help, but 1.2" adrift of Edwards is a lot.
Next test 28th & 29th March in Jerez.

JT must be struggling with confidence, probably won't do his start to the season any good!
Still........Stoner and Dovi are in my dream team so they should sort my points out, unlike Shakey the donkey! Thank god i took Haslam as a cheap outsider!

[Pomp1]

well, got the same team on moto gp, and Shakey and Sykes in WSB, so I'm around the million place..

[Pedro]

So who's doing the MCN Fanatasy league thing?

[Pomp1]

I am, can't wait for the racing season to start, with MotoGP, BSB and ehm.. F1..

[Pedro]

Well how about we do a UKMOC league then?

I didn't do too badly last year, came 26th overall with only a couple of team changes!

[Pedro]

Just created a league - UK Monsters

email me at pedro@ukmonster.co.uk if you want to join!

[slob]

Have I missed something, I thought Sete was back this year or was he too slow to make the timing sheets?

[Pedro]

He fell off and hurt his shoulder... either that or he was tired of flies hitting the back of his crash hat...

[Pomp1]

fine by me..I'll sort it out in the morning and post up..26th overall? not bad at all,at the moment I'm..ehm..21025th

[Pomp1]

God you're quick..

[Pedro]

Yeah not so great this year so far, Shakey needs to pull his finger out!

I got Shakey & Haslam as well Steve. Think I may have made the right decision to
swap JT for Vermulen!
