The rumour mill is well and truly in full swing. Who's going to get the seat? Every name I come up with has plusses and minuses. Would love to see Rossi back but would he want to leave Ducati as a failure or does he hang on and hope the machine can be sorted. Maybe we get to know the answer this weekend. Steve

See now why your pics. are so good.

Think you are being a bit harsh to be honest. Watched moto 2 and 3 on the red button with moto gp inbetween on BBC 2. Only got a freeview box so rely heavily on terrestial tv. Up untill a couple of months back was able to watch eurosport international on an old analogue dish but unfortunatly only now broadcast on digital. Is their any way you can subscribe to eurosport without subscribing to sky? Have tried eurosport player in the past but the picture was so poor I cancelled the subscription. Pretty sure the bbc are giving up on moto gp after next season so will need to find some alternative. Steve

Cracking pics.mate,wish mine came out like that. Just for interest what camera do you use?

Lorenzo being shunted off no doubt made Stoners race far simplier and ruined what was going to be another great battle. Also put an end to Crutchlows ambition of a podium. Didnt you just know he would eventually pass Pedrosa even though at one time it looked like Pedrosa was getting away. Must have been a real gutter for Lorenzo to build up that lead and have it taken away in a moment of madness. What Bautista was thinking is beyond me. Roll on this weekend.

Did anyone watch moto3. That was one incredible race,from start to finish. How Danny Kent stayed on I do not know,with friends like Cortese who needs enemies.

Some great battles in all classes. Getting more impressed with Redding each race. Rode a brilliant race on Sunday,taking care of his tyres alot more. Terrific battle with Marquez. Talk of Ducati being after Crutchlow for next season,will be interesting to see what Yamaha come up with.

Predicted this would happen a while back. Honda carry a lot of clout,to much in my opinion. If they want a rule changing they usually get their way in the end.

Thanks. If on the cheap side might be worth trying along with a few others. Talking to a bloke the other day who had a set of custom earplugs,cost him £60,have seen them alot more expensive than that. He seemed to like them,his only worry was losing the buggers.

Yeah that camera work was brilliant. I see they late penalised Marquez 1 minute for the incident and then changed thier mind. Was not a deliberate act imo.,think they were reacting to the Qatar incident more than anything.

Some great racing today in all classes. An amazing scrap for second in moto3. Unbelievable save from Marquez who then unfortunatly took out Espargaro seconds later in moto 2. And another top ride from Crutchlow and encouraging performance from Rossi on the Ducati in moto gp. Nice to see Stoners not having it all his own way as well. Silverstone next.

Thanks,might give them a try. Never really bothered to much previously but will try to persevere this time.

Now I'm confused,one bad report and one good.

Thanks for that,will give them a miss.

That's what I thought mate that's why I'm asking for opinions. Using moldex at the moment and they are driving me mad.Never seem to be able to get a secure fit,must be my ear shape Would be a price worth paying.

Considering giving these a try. Has anybody used them? Found them on the net for £15 and wondering if it's worth paying the extra. Thanks Steve

May be able to make this mate if that's ok. Will have to let you know for definate though nearer the time. Steve

Fantastic to see Rossi back at the sharp end even though it was due to the conditions. Never doubted his will to win was still there Read some rubbish over the last few weeks about how he should retire and leave with a bit of grace. Give him a half decent bike and he will challenge again. Scott Reading rode a cracker as well in horrible conditions,got great hope for this lad and Smith for that matter for the future.

North west 200 being streamed live at the moment on bbc website. In between races at the moment due to a red flag. Cracking first two races. Steve

Hope Rossi never returns to Honda not that I think he will get the chance. Maybe if Lorenzo is poached by Honda then their may be a chance for him back at Yamaha,seemed to leave on good terms. You never know Ducati might get their act together before pens are put to paper and a golden swansong might be on the cards. With the rules as they stand Marquez needs a satellite next year,how many years did Bautista get? Wouldn't rule out Honda putting pressure on to get the rookie rule overturned,with Repsol sponsorship would like to get their golden boy on the factory. Only just started this season and we are already thinking who's going where next year. Steve

Don't agree with youre comment about Rossi mate,think he's got plenty to offer yet but maybe not with Ducati. A lot of rider contracts up at the end of the season so will be very interesting to see who goes where.

Not sure steve ???????? If you send Stu a PM he's the forum Geek and knows all the technical stuff. Ok thanks. Ended up at the Thundersprint.

TC tried to look in contacts section for youre number earlier but for some reason would not let me access. Do you know why? Steve

Enjoyed the Sunday,good turnout aswell no doubt due to the extra race. Did anybody get their on Monday. Couldn't believe the Chris Walker result even in wet conditions.
