The Doctor Is In

lol, who replaced the picture of drunken Kimi Raikkonen with a black female’s crotch?

Must be those anti-hotlinkers

So, Honda has decided to quit F1. They were never my favorite team, and I never actively cheered for them. But I was a closet fan. BAR had its heyday back before I started watching, and I figure they do deserve some praise. But 07-08 have just been terrible for them, and now they’ve withdrawn. Makes me sad, especially since I love Honda.

One thing I don’t like about Honda though, is that they’re a bit daft at making motorsports decisions.

Setting up an entire F1 team just to keep Takuma Sato? (given Super Aguri was another closet favorite, but they were not exactly a bargain bin deal in the end, and did not end up as TEAM HOT LAVA) Employing a motorcycle designer to do their F1 cars? What the hell?

This one boggles me the most though…Dropping Valentino Rossi. Oh god, the man is the Michael Schumacher of MotoGP, and back when he was teamed up with Nicky Hayden (more on him in the next post…), Repsol Honda was the pimpingest team ever! And they have to go and drop Rossi (which is probably equivalent of Ferrari letting McLaren have Schumacher…), in favor of Dani Pedrosa. Not only is his neck too long, he’s the motorcycle-riding equivalent of Fernando Alonso (at least on the drama queen front, since Alonso is cool as a driver now). No wonder Nicky got fed up with their antics and left for the Reds.

Why would anyone drop Valentino Rossi? Here is a list of reasons why he rules.

-He got charged for tax fraud (which is funny)

-He looks like a spider monkey

-His ears are the size of satellite dishes

-He has an inexplicable nickname “The Doctor”

-He has a ridiculous sequence of pre-race rituals

-He might be slightly insane

-He does wheelies when he wins

-Scuderia Ferrari lets him drive their F1 cars. For fun.

-He claims his work in MotoGP is not yet done

-He once had a helmet with his face on top. Going nuts
