Pešek won't get enough money to take place on the grid and Abraham will go down in the first 1/3 of the race or finish on the last position. They say Pešek had to get 10 mil. CZK(approx. 332203.840GBP) to race, but he can't get any sponsors for the race.

EDIT: It is quite funny, the contract Pešek and his team have says, that Pešek gets money, the team let's him race their bike if he gets enough.

I do believe Rossi's gonna win this one, it's Brno, anything goes Thumbs Up

That is how 90% of the contracts in professional motorsport works.

Not all of them are paid drivers/riders from the factory. Either they get sponsors to pay, or they foot the cash themselves

FP2

Bradl
Lorenzo
Pedrosa
Rossi
Marc
Crutchlow
Smith (G'wan!!)
Dovi
Hayden
Iannone
Asparagus

edit

Interesting that Bradl couldn't make the hard tyre work, could only go 7th, switched to the soft to set his fast time, whereas Rossi's fourth was on the hard tyre.

Cal fastest in FP3, looks like he's got a good setup!!

Interesting to see iannone lost control of the ducati trying to stay with rossis line, the ducati just doesn't like turning through the corner.

On reflection, it looks like Cal has found a good setup. Great lap Cool

Yawn.

Yet again Parrish fucks me off. Talks like he's a gp pro, when, wait for it; 52 starts. 1 podium. 0 wins.

Leathery old cunt.

Ah but look at his past...

Quote:
Personality

A notorious practical joker, Parrish is known to have carried out the following pranks.

-He is permanently banned from the Chinese administrative region of Macau after blowing a brothel up with a home-made bomb made out of firecrackers, when several of his fellow riders were being 'serviced' inside.

-He has burnt down a toilet block in Poland.[9]

-He once posed as a medical doctor to allow John Hopkins to fly from Japan to the Australian GP.[10]

-He has upset his fellow village residents by registering PEN 15 as his car number plate.

-He once sabotaged a Mini Moke belonging to Team Bike, (a group of benefactors, mechanics, racers, journalists and helpers) by undoing every single wheel-nut to the last thread, in a revenge prank. The prank was discovered shortly before the vehicle was going to be driven off.[9]

-He once posed as Barry Sheene in a qualifying session when the two were team-mates, as Sheene had turned up to the session with a hangover. Parrish put on Sheene's helmet/overalls and qualified on his behalf, then put his own clothing back on and qualified further down the grid as himself.[9]

-Parrish owns an ambulance and has been seen using the ambulance to park on double yellow lines with the doors open in visits to his local bank.[9]

-He also owns a fire engine and once hosed down the inside of a friend's packed pub on a Sunday afternoon.[9]

I met Stavros last year at Salon Prive where he was exhibiting a bike. Thought he was good bloke, happy to spend 5 minutes chatting to an ordinary punter like me. His column in FB is generally good too. I totally agree, he's a bit annoying on telly though.

You are being a tad unfair, he did finish 5th in the 500cc WC!

He has done 16 TT's with 12 top twenty finishes, which kinda pisses all over the GP bonfire, IMO! Thumbs Up

Regardless of previous merit, he is an awful commentator.

You only have to tune in to eurosport to realise how bad they are on the beeb. It's laughable.

We want Neil Spalding!
