Ill have to let Sparts and Dem know that the fuel bill will be a bit higher now :)

Lightweights, I'm taking the Mas via Newcastle! I'm sure I will burn two tanks full and more but I know I'll be smiling all the way :D

Still not sure if I am taking the GS or the Q3, Ill probably be too hung over to drive spiritedly and the thought of the 300 miles in the Friday afternoon traffic M3/M25/A1 sounds like a lot of hard work for the Maz.

You need to get a wafty Maser to take care of these sort of duties. The Ghibli will be heading North again for this event after impressing me immensely last weekend, not embarrassing itself in the company of some very serious machinery.

It's about time we saw the Green Monster, Miles?

i can guarantee my car will use the least petrol of anyone. None, in fact!

Not this time. Got to get it ready for the NEC the following week, so having it fettled. The Abarth will be fun and very fun in the bendy stuff.

Seriously, have you got BT Sports at Casa Hodroyd?

He's blown it now anyway - what was going through his head? Only Rossi could do that and not get disqualified. A desire by the organisers to at least keep things lively until the last race I think.

Either way lorenzo or marquez will never be as popular as Valentino Rossi. Not only that but Danny Kent should win the Moto3 championship.

No way was that Rossi. Marquez was an absolute d1ck throughout. I suspect he was laughing in his helmet when he went down. Marquez will not come out of this well.

I agree Marquez was winding him up and probably leaned into Rossi a bit just before the incident but it seemed to me that Rossi was deliberately slowing down and running Marquez out wide. Even if he didn't actually kick out, it's still a dodgy thing to be doing.

Rossi's only; only, mistake was to bite. I know there's history, and that's fair enough, you play the game and you give and then you take, but this wasn't that. Marquez was meniacal and downright dangerous...repeatedly. This wasn't racing, it was a grudge no matter the situation, no matter the danger, no matter the outcome. That mindset will kill someone.
