Moto GP: Mugello

Sun 1 Jun, 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm 90mins
Website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/motogp
Suzi Perry presents live coverage of round six of this season's MotoGP championship in Mugello, Italy.

In recent years, the Mugello race has been dominated by home favourite Valentino Rossi and the Italian is aiming for a seventh consecutive victory at the venue in 2008. After a slow start to this campaign, 29-year-old Rossi announced his return to form with victories in Shanghai and Le Mans, and is now back at the top of the Championship. British fans will be monitoring the progress of MotoGP rookie James Toseland, who will be tackling the Mugello track for the first time.

With commentary from Charlie Cox and Steve Parrish. [S]

Yep will be watching..........but am more than a little nervous about this one. Must say though I won't be watching it on the BBC.........Eurosport for me

If Mr 'YMCA' wins, Sunday afternoon and monday will be great for me

. Still, after giving it out for so long, it's only fair than I'm man enough to take it on the chin.

Those involved in the banter about which side I bat for, please note that the above says "takes it on the chin" & not over the chin

Anyway, lets hopes it's good racing, whatever the result

Wife got used to this fortnight routine by now and already ironing the straightjacket, then

Better get a new anti-choke mouthpiece while you're at it, the old one must be chewed through by now.

I don't even know your wife??

No, the anti choke has only been used twice this year and hardly at all last year

Northants General has you booked in for Sunday - around 2 pm

They're running short of saline drip again too - I'm sure you'll oblige once more.

Roll on Sunday and some good racing

As a Rossi fan I'm nervous - his run at this circuit has to end sometime. And I hate all the hype - just builds it for an even bigger fall (pardon the pun, touch wood etc).

Yep, can't disagree.....top performance.

Good to see Toseland doing well again, and Stoner doing better.

Meeeooowww - claws showing, Lance

Am putting saucer of milk out for you now.

Lady Elanore · 01-06-2008, 15:09

The doctor is still in the Theatre

Bit processional by MotoGP standards, almost like F1 (only kidding)

ROSSI ROCKS!!!!!!!

Jon TDI · 01-06-2008, 17:41

Rossi does it again!!

His lid looked hilarious as he was tucked in behind the screen on the straight!

Good to see JT do well again.

Anyone see the 250's?
Big, big crash for Hector Barbera as he clipped Simoncelli coming onto the straight.

If the cat in me does come out, there's one special mouse that's gonna get swiped

That Rossi lid is exactly the sort of thing that makes me have such an intense dislike of him

......that and his stupid after race antics, which I do my best to avoid.
