moto gp: mistake or tear off
« on: 01 July 2015, 01:26:42 am »
Just watching the Assen  highlights 10 laps to go. The commentators say Rossi makes a mistake, knows it, gives a little left hand to thank Maques  for not running him over.  Looked to me that he was just removing a tear off. Am I wrong, did he make a mistake?

Murray "And unless I'm very much mistaken Senna has just made a very rude hand signal to Mansell"

Hunt "No Murray it was a tear off and you should have gone to Specsavers"

Some say that he eats habanero chilli peppers dipped in oil of capsaicin for extra bite and that his pyjamas are made from Nomex. All we know is, he's called Ad the Bad

Easy to see on your 40-whatever inch TV in your living room; a bit more tricky on the piddly little monitors they use when commentating
