    Just read about some Bosnian fans who had tickets to watch their team get through to the World Cup. They missed the match because they went to Latvia rather than Lithuania...an easy mistake to make :)

    But in this case my opinion is valid.

    OK, just for you Beefy, I'll change personality to public persona.

    Ok now..? Does that feel better..?

    I don't know that, let's say, Lorenzo or Pedrosa's public personas are any better or worse than an F1 driver. Rossi is a one off, but then he'd be the same in any sport - that's nothing to do with his love of two wheel racing, it's just who he is. He's the Kriss Akabusi of Moto GP let's say ;)

    There are plenty of personalities in F1 (throughout history) though granted, some of that is drilled out of them by the corporate bods more obviously in the modern era, but I don't see (bar Rossi) anyone in MotoGP that I'd want to go for a beer with significantly more than Mark Webber for instance.

    Admittedly, I'd rather have a pint of cyanide than beer if I were out with Paul di Resta, that much is true.

    I get what you're saying TSS, I really do, and much of it I agree with, but there's definitely a slight case of bike-tinted glasses going on!

    Speaking of characters in MotoGP, today marks two years since we lost a great one in Marco Simoncelli. RIP :(

    Me too, totally looks like a Martian or something. I'd be interested to see if anyone actually realised what it was.

    Loved Simoncelli. Actually, that discussion regarding personalities has made me realise something - of course the F1 lot seem a little staid currently - there's no Italians on the grid...!
