I don't see that Hayden has the extra 1% needed !

I would like Hayden to win, Rossi is great, no doubt about it, but the way he does it, is not always right, it is more like a must win or bust, Rossi & Shuwy seem to have come from the same mould.

In my opinion, Rossi is the greatest ever. He has nothing else to prove. I would like to see Rossi do it because he can never have enough honours in my book.
On the other hand, I like Hayden too. I respectfuly disagree with gsxrage ; I think Hayden does have the extra 1% that's needed. I really thought there was more than the odd occasion this season when he looked TOTALLY focused. If he wins the title, I'll be well pleased.
All I want to see now in moto gp is :
1.Capirossi to stay with Ducati until he retires.There is no better sight in motorcycle racing than him on a Duke... Awesome
2. Rossi on a Ducati alongside Loris
3. Hopkins on a decent bike

Rossi, - unfortunately, - I also wanted another name on the role, and with a bit of luck Ducati could have been up there this year. Not sure that Hayden wants it enough for a win it or bin it move if it comes to it. Rossi wants it more and would do anything to win it. Hayden will still look back on his career and say "I did well with 2nd".

Valentino....Sure he puts hard moves on people sometimes but hey, hes paid to win not make friends.If he can win this after the season he's had then all power to him, he deserves it and certain others should really take a look at themselves as its been there on a plate! Nicky Hayden, 3 wins in 4 years on a honda? i'd be embarrassed if he became champ with a record like that

Rossi is without doubt the most talented rider in MotoGP but IMHO I've simply got sick of his mind games and stunts...

If he leaves MotoGP however, the effect could be devastating and I cant help thinking if he loses the title his year, then it would make him want to regain it all the more.

So, I'd kinda like Hayden to lift the title - he's rode a developement bike most of the year (apparently) on his own and as for the yellow flag protest I wonder if that was more Honda's doing than Hayden's.

I just really want Loris to win all the remaining races A real racer in my mind!

interesting point about Hopkins
I really rate him but the Suzuki just don't cut the mustard.
imagine him on the Roberts bike ?
think he is to tied into the Suzuki deal.
sure he wants a proper crack at the title though. Thoughts

Slight twist of Keefer's question, but if it comes down to a few points at Valencia, do you really think it'll be be the place to prove the worthy champ? It's such a nightmare place to overtake, and other than the end of the main straight, it's really just a follow the leader place.............
