VR (God) finished second by .002 to some other guy.
Title leader American HillBillie Nicky Hayden was in 3rd and his teammate DP in forth. DP crashed himself and NH out of the race. Now with 1 race to go VR has an 8 point lead. MS may have fought back throughout the season, but he couldnt pull the trigger, as VR not only pulled the trigger, but will win final race at Valencia, and take his 8th world title. If asked who is best DRIVER of all time, most answer AS, MS, NP, JMF, etc.. in ALL reality, the best DRIVER without mentioning driving what to ever grace the earth is 27 year old Valentino "The Doctor" Rossi.... Fact boys

Boy oh boy, if Ferrari would have let him do HIS thing, they would have hired an Italian World champ for Ferrari, and as Marco(matrix) knows, if they woulf\d have signed Rossi, I would have forgiven Ferrari for F****** me out of the especiale Spumante, and I honest to God would have been Tifosi, cheering The Doctor to finish 3rd behind Sir JB and RB...Christ, i would have even wanted Rossi to beat TS!!!!!!!!! Ferrari REALLY F***** up by not putting the most famous Italian on earth in the most famous Italian car on earth.. JT, RB, and ESPECIALLY Luca DiMontzemblo deserve to be executed.

OK rant is over, now this subject was brought up in a tread a while ago, having to do with FIA scoring. MotoGP and F1 are both governed by the FIA, so why can't F1 use the MotoGP scoring?????? It would reward 1st alot more than it currently does, and sure in the days (04) of MS winning 13 races, his score would be astronomical, but its just math to determ the placing.
1 25
2. 20
3. 16
4. 13.
5. 11
6. 10
7. 9
8. 8
9. 7
10. 6
11. 5
12. 4
13. 3
14. 2
15. 1

What do you guys think?

 

The FIA scoring system was changed because of the combination of MS and Ferrari.

They were unstoppable and would wrap up the season early - so in typical BE fashion, he made a bandaid fix and changed the points scoring system.

I never liked the current system, I think it is unfair and does not weigh a win appropriately.

I would really like to see Rossi in a Ferrari ....

 

Yep, I like the old scoring system better too. Both ways, FA wins '05 and '06.

 

only if it helps super duper aguri score a point. any chance of kimi and rossi drive for ferrari in 08?

 

NO
VR signed at least a 2 yr contract extension after he told Ferrari to F*** off.

 

VR is a great rider. No argument there. But is he the best of all drivers? This is a bit like superhero arguments since it amounts to apples and oranges, but I think mighty highly of World Rally champions. That's what I call serious skill and giant balls. Why not Sebastian Loeb for best of all time?

 

cause 8 is 5 more than 3 for SL, and 1 more than the feuher, and VR will get at least 10 before its all said and done

 

i dont think you can compare 2 wheel to 4 wheel. yes vr is the king on 2 wheels, but i dont think he would do good in f1

 

The race was a real nailbiter. Elias did great job of passing Rossi for the win, even though Rossi was still leading coming out of the last corner.

Don't count Hayden out yet. He can still take the title if he wins at Valencia and someone other than Rossi takes 2nd. It seems that Pedrosa is sincerely sorry for the accident, and will try his hardest to support Hayden in the final round.

 

I didn't know that MotoGP was discussed in here.
