MOTO GP 125cc and 250cc

If you want exciting sport on wheels, look no further than the motorbikes. I can honestly say that they do no just go round and round. They actually do things like race, overtake, go elbow to elbow with each other. The man leading is not the man who wins in about 7 out of 10 races, thats just it, you never know what is going to happen. I am glued to the TV whenever it is on, admittedly some races are better than others and some circuits are much more exciting, but boring? not usually.

Totally agree, the 125 in particular provides what is probably the best racing of any motorised sport.

If someone breaks away and builds up what looks like a big margin they invariably get pulled back within just a few laps. The final lap typically starts with several riders wheel to wheel, and even going into the very last corner you expect there to be at least a couple of them competing to win the race.

And this year we had the bonus of Bradley Smith putting in a great effort.

(p.s. The Doctor reigns supreme)

Yo Jumbuck. I agree, well done Bradley. Of course Rossi has been my favourite for many years, not only is he a brilliant rider, but with his hilarious celebrations and personality, he brings a great sense of fun to the whole thing, even though it remains a very dangerous sport. Formula 1 seems to me to be about who has the best car, Rossi can win on anything showing that it is skill rather than equipment which is the mark of a true champion.
