General Smut Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Well done Dani Pedrosa!!!! I'm a Rossi fan but even i feel for Nicky Hayden. Pedrosa takes out Hayden! Hayden and Pedrosa, Spanish MotoGP, 2006 Dani Pedrosa has made one of the biggest mistakes ever seen in modern motorcycle grand prix racing - smashing into team-mate Nicky Hayden early in the Portuguese Grand Prix and destroying the American's world championship lead. Hayden came into the penultimate race of the season with a 12 point lead over Valentino Rossi, who is now leading the race from Camel Yamaha team-mate Colin Edwards. Hayden was third at the time of the accident, which occurred when Pedrosa lost the front of his Repsol Honda while trying to re-pass the American on the inside as they entered a left hand turn. The pass was never realistically going to work and Dani, having lost the front, slammed into the side of Hayden, sending them both cartwheeling into the gravel. Hayden was apoplectic with rage, removing his helmet and screaming with frustration. It must have taken every inch of his restraint to avoid throttling the young Spaniard, who appears to have broken a finger. http://www.crash.net/news_View~t~Pedrosa-takes-out-Hayden-~cid~6~id~138990.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
