edit. I don't know why but I couldnt leave the sepang thread as it was.

RIP Marco. Thanks.

Out of all the years Girly and I don't go - Hoppy brings life back to the pack.

I'd have to say, there are more Mono's and rider appearances at Sepang then most other tracks, they tend to relax there more. And the crowds are smaller than most tracks.

There's a brilliant opportunity for them on the back straight to pull some excellent wheelies for the crowd and unlike PI, they can't pull in to the pits (easily) after the finish line so you are pretty much guaranteed of a good show on the way back to the pits.

Like that's hard at the moment

Hence why I included the second sentence in brackets. I was trying to make it sound like Hoppa was on some sort of winning pace but in reality the name Rossi isn't really carrying the same gravity right at this moment. Burgess needs to stop being all diplomatic and stick a firecracker up his arse.

For the first time Burgess did actually take a bit of a public swipe at Rossi in an interview at the island last weekend (very subtle though). Caused much hand wringing amongst the commentators, it did.

He said that they aren't getting the right information from the rider to know how to improve the bike
