FTAO of Dave!
Engine fail;
I follow Power Driven Diesel on YouTube. It was a fresh rebuild and wasn’t finished till that morning. The slicer valve (to shut the air off) failed at the end of the track, it ran to 180psi on runaway and then kaboom. A rod broke, went into the cam which broke the crankcase and the other pistons still going round finished the job.
That was around 2000hp from memory.
Dave!

I saw another clip where he kicked the other guy then leant over and stopped his bike engine (whilst stationary) - the guy seems like a tit.

Also from yesterday? The guy's got a history, shall we say.

And his next team is also trying to fire him.
And Crazy Eyes Cal is trying to have him banned altogether, and good on him.

Sacked by his team but about to join the team in 2019 the other guy rides for.
That can only go well.

Even by Australian standards that's pretty racist.

How? Where did race come into it? Genuine question.
What happened at the US Open wasn't racist, the cartoon certainly is.
The use of pretty much every derogatory black stereotype in the caricature of Serena is one thing but there;s also drawing Naomi Osaka, who I believe is Half Japanese/Half Haitian as a blonde white woman.

Not any more. MV Agusta have said he can't represent them under any circumstances.

Good. Not sure who saw the race yesterday but even the commentators had to bite their tongues on that ludicrous behaviour.

OK, understood. I'm sure they thank you for your support

I saw this on the news last night and was totally confused.
She smashed her racket in anger and called the umpire a thief for taking a point off her for receiving coaching during the game (eye fink). Despite the fact the cameras caught her coach giving her hand signals. Then she demanded an apology from teh umpire because she has a daughter and has to teach her what is right, and doesn't cheat. Despite....see above. Massive tantrum which she then turned into a sexism issue - suggesting her actions were fine because lots of men did worse things.
