Cousin Bernice, having grown up in Hamilton, Home of the next NZ V8Supercar race,........
Home of the Scobey Brothers..winner of the Isle of Man TT, and sidecar TT, rang in from Misano, she reckons that when The Doctor cruised into the pits to retire, he was about a metre from her.
Cousin Bernice reckons......."No way that was a pneumatic valve engine.........no way was there a misfire........oil leak.........n everyone in the pit garage looked like stunned mullet to see him"

Jorge Lorenzo, who is possibly the most arrog...........self believing driver/rider in form of motor sport in the Galaxy, will partner Rossi in 2008.
Is that a rally car with Rossi livery I espy?

Big Stones has matched Rossi's second year in Moto-GP, in terms of podiums, and has scored more points to date.
