I also never liked Lorenzo's 250cc riding style, he always looked like a plank on the bike.

Well I first started supporting him when i tuned in half way through a race and he was just overtaking other races and handled his bike really well so i kind of kept an eye on his career. In 2005 with Seedorf Racing i felt really sorry for him but watched his races and left it at that. In 2006 I was so happy about him going to Aspar team and then he took the championship here in Australia and that was how i became a huge fan.

@ Miss 'Varo: I know what you mean with some guys thinking that girls cant seriously enjoy watching motorbikes go around the track over and over again with out another motive. It’s really annoying! I come form a huge family with a lot of males and whenever they are in the room with me and im watching a race i get all of the comments. Its a drag but i just try to tune out. But like you said you cant help it if some of the riders are attractive whether its there personality or looks and they cant help it either!

Yeah, you say it, Neil!

I agree it is hard to just like riders because of their looks. For one it would get boring very soon and for other you don't see them much without the helmet anyway.
But there is really something special about Bati's riding style that makes him stand out and I love to watch him race.
The other way around it also happens to be that I can't stand the riding style of riders I don't like as well. For example I think Simoncelli's riding style looks horrible (not to mention being idiotic), being tall or not. Rossi is the same height and he rode differently in the small classes. I also never liked Lorenzo's 250cc riding style, he always looked like a plank on the bike.

Would looove to see those teams in the class, especially Aprilia and KTM, but dont think its likely anymore for a long time while the economy is like that. my father works at BMW, i've heard that their plan was Motogp after they leave behind a season or two in wsbk, but it was before the credit crunch, so dont think theres much hope now...

Hi jibberish, welcome

I'm kinda surprised to see Jorge is in many lists now here, the number is like duplicated compared to the begininng of the season lol

@Fluff: Mine was not related with the look, i saw him without the helmet much later like its been said before. didnt know anything about the lower classes first, the more i became more familiar with the 125cc, its grid and everything, i was already a Bati fan, it was a natural process lol, dont know how to put it more clear...
