I am Still Pissed at Pedrosa! He was riding like an Idiot! he could have learned something from the Texas Tornado Edwards who was doing everything he was supposed to do and here this IDIOT was trying to race Hayden and Keep him from getting to the front. Even the Other teams were showing more respect than he was! Like I said elsewhere He should be fired by Honda and If I was Hayden, I would not ride from the same garage

I'm on the fence. It was whack to say the least but:
In the heat of the battle people make mistakes. He had a momentary lapse in judgement, got "caught up" in the battle and made a bonehead move. Also, while he wasn't in the championship running, he wasn't necessarily last in the points either. Maybe he was a little pissed about the little bump from Hayden earlier in the race???

My note just dissappered?
They Both work for HONDA the Factory and ALL the Factory cares about is winning the World Championship and he may have messed it up! It is not about the person when the Factory pays you. He should never have been in Hayden's way to begin with! He is not a Factory Rider and should get an independent ride for next year then everything he did was fine even as bad as it was. Notice that even Roberts did not want to take a chance and push which might cause Rossi or Hayden to crash. Even the Winner stuck his leg out to allow Rossi to pass when he could not ride fast enough! Everybody but Pedrossa knew what the deal was!
I still would not be surprized to see them FIRE Him. Edwards knew what to do and did it!

Vincent, I couldnt agree more!!!!!
Pedrosa should be fired. Taking out your teammate and costing honda (his paycheck and boss) the championship. No excuses, he fucked up royally and i'll give him the bennifit of the doubt that he knew better. If he didnt then he has no buisness on a race track.
They should have put his shit in the trailor, sent him home on a seperate flight and told him not to call.
Fuckin asshole.

They can't fire him, Repsol, who pays the bills, is a spanish company that wants a spanish champion. They unfortunately have leverage at HRC. Pedro is a stupid fuckin retarded shitstain. And guess who spent the entire year developing parts for Honda's 800 designed around pedro. Hayden with his hybrid R&D bike. Hayden really is the redheaded stepchild of HRC, they wouldn't let Burgess work with him even at his request, they've changed his engineers every season, one change was MIDSEASON, and now this without even a statement released from HRC. HRC has mispelled Hayden's name in releases as well as made fun of his accent. Then they pair him up with retards like biaggi and now pedrophile. For once I'd like to see him move to Ducati(did I just say that?). I really do. Nevermind team orders, it doesn't take team orders to not crash out your teamate, especially in the closing stages of the season while he's leading the Championship, that's common damn sense which that fucktard doesn't have.

At least Yamaha and Rossi acknowledged the Job That COlin Edwards did for them and praised him for his efforts. Rossi said that Edwards allow him the CHANCE to get away but his "Rhythm" was just not there and he tried several times and thanked Colin for doing everything he could to help him win the race!\

You can hear the Tears in his voice and like I was saying, this is a once in a Life time situation and to beat Rossi!! Almost impossible

I agree Vincent. Pedrosa was pushing all the time and thus hindering Hayden. Of course he was allowed to overtake Hayden if he was quicker, but he should have used a safer margin: on the straight or something like that. After they crashed I turned off the tv in disgust and thus missed the rest of a great race

It made me SICK, I had feelings like when My mother would say "I am going to tell your Dad when he gets home"! You knew you were in trouble and nothing you could do!

I was pissed too, I expect honda to fire him for that stunt, in lap 2 no less is ridiculous. I can see getting hungry and wild with 2 laps left, but not lap 2 against your own teamamte, pedrosa was not going to the podium that day so why soil nickies luck with bad judgement. Honda should fire him, but I think him and Hayden signed 2 more years around the same time. I guess we shall see.

Tell you what, everyone would be saying that the only reason Hayden won the championship was because Rossi didn't finish 3 races. Now he has a chance to win it clean but it will take a win and Rossi off the podium. It won't happen unless Rossi wipes out in the last race.

I also have a hard time in Believing that Hayden can Beat a Motoviated Rossi and that Pedrosa is going to work to HELP anyone other than himself.
I also do not want to see Rossi or Hayden interferred with during the last race. I also do not think that Rossi will "Allow" Pedrosa to get into his way and If Pedrosa does to Rossi what he did to Hayden, He might as well hang up his leathers and hire Body Guards. There are People that would Kill for Rossi!
