Motegi on Sunday with V.Rossi needing 'only' 2nd to clinch the title with 5 rounds left. If he does he will equal Doohan's 5 premier-class championships; only Ago has won more. In his autobiography Rossi rates Hailwood as 'the greatest' followed by Ago and Rainey. |

That last lap at Brno must have cracked Gibbers up...I wonder if it really was a mechanical failure or if he trashed the bike somehow after being passed (again) by Rossi ? I can't recall the last time an RC211V actually broke down... |

I heard he ran out of gas ..but i haven't seen any further speculation about it recently... I think he really loses the plot when Rossi is on his back wheel ..the " Sete is not going to win any GPs this year" remark from Vale seems to have really psyched him out! |
