Wow, didn't long for my new sig to get noticed huh...did that in class this morning (super ghey class) in MS paint... you like?




The story goes like this.

Hayden was leading the points all year, but due to HRC testing parts through Hayden, he was pretty much riding a new bike every race. So his points lead came down to 13 at the second to last race in Portugal (this is after Rossi qualified 1st and got 5 points). Finally got a good start from fifth, to 3rd right behind his teammate Dani Pedrosa. Well he passed Pedrosa, even though Pedro-Bot didn't give him any room on lap 2. On the 5th lap, Dani cut hard on turn three, went into way too hot grabbed a handful of brakes and his front end gave way. Problem is he took out Hayden along the way.

More HRC's fault because they never gave Pedrosa any team orders to let Nicky through and take the Championship. Other side of the coin is that Pedrosa is Alberto Puig's (former 250 champ and his mentor) Cumdumpster and he probably wouldn't of listen anyways.

So last race at Valencia, 4th lap. Across the line it goes Bayliss, Capirossi, Hayden, Pedrosa, and Rossi after a sh!t start by Rossi which put him 3rd to 8th at turn one. Halfway through the lap with Rossi pressing hard but with Rookie Chris Vermeulen on his ass, his front end tucks and he ends up in the gravel. Loses 45 seconds and Hayden takes his time on his way to the Championship (took 3rd place). So the pictures are taken right as Rossi catches up to congratulate Hayden after the race.

Even Yamaha, who Rossi rides for, put this up on their website as their Intro for a week. Which is a total class act by Yamaha.


Ok, hope that explains it.
