Big win for Casey yesterday to take the championship lead. He’s looking really good on the Honda.

Who follows the MotoGP?

Don’t sit down and watch it, but certainly keep an eye on whats going on.

Casey is going to get everything to work for him soon and absolutely kill one year of the championship. Mate has he got the skills shaka

I was lucky enough to see him race for the first time as World Champion a few seasons ago (he won the title the race before Phillip Island). He killed it at Phillip Island too. I’m a big fan of Casey!

It’s his bike. They are having issues with his Ducati. I missed the first few rounds of the season so not really sure on the details.

Tragic round for MotoGP. 24 year old Marco Simoncelli died after a big crash with Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi.

RIP Marco. downer

Brutal, saw it last night and it hits home hard.

He was such a great person as well, My housemates brother had a photo with him just a week ago at Phillip Island.
