blackbird Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) I got a feeling it's going to be Cal's day today Edited August 25, 2013 by blackbird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KFC Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 It would be a surprise to see a non-factory bike win. Wish I could afford to see Scott Redding at Silverstone but I'm buying a new shotgun. With Cal, Scott and Bradley Smiff it's one of the best seasons for British riders in a long time.

jason kaye Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Who'd have thought that tries too hard, always tries to ride beyond his capabilities, it's one thing to put a few fast laps in to take pole and another to keep it going for a full race when there's others to fight with,personally I can't stand him and the sooner he go's to Ducati to finish his career the better.

Hear hear,,he's just a big mouthfull of excuses for poor performances. No wonder Yamaha wouldnt give him a factory bike. Smith looks like a far more rounded talent !

Bit harsh, he is without a doubt the best GP rider we have had for years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocette Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Unfortunately,,the best we have had for years isn't quite the complement it sounds like !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason kaye Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) Unfortunately,,the best we have had for years isn't quite the complement it sounds like !! +1 on that, if he's the best we've had for years then then Britain wants to keep away from MotoGP they just haven't got the talent to back up their mouths, it's every excuse in the book if things don't go their way, the reason I can't stand Crutchlow is for what he did to his fans regarding the brake situation when Doviziso was beating him week in week out, he was just a complete tool.

-Mongrel- Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 He is by far and away the best GP rider we've had in years and by far the most successful. He has been pretty much the best of the rest consistently, as is shown by the fact that he is 5th in the current standings behind 4 full factory bikes... ...and yet people still feel the need to criticise him. He's in the business to race bikes, not be a nice guy or make friends! To be honest, I hope he does make the Ducati work and that he wins races on it, time will tell. Typical of us Brits actually, always looking to knock a success story down. What should be happening is support! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elby Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Met him a couple of times at Silverstone when I was instructing. Actually a really nice guy and back then not big headed at all. He's doing well in Moto GP but I doubt he'll win any titles. He'll be another Colin Edwards, consistant nearly man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
