Poor Guy is 'off it' again...

Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.

Sadly, overcooked it coming out of the corner. The good news, from reports, is that there nothing worse than road testing his leathers and a few painful bruises. :y :y :y

Broken sternum, broken ribs, broken vertebra. Being operated on later today.
There have been rumours that he is going to retire from road racing at the end of this season and I hope they are true.
I am a fan of Guy, but imo he hasn't quite got what it takes as a rider to be where he wants to be. I.e. a consistent winner at the TT and other road races. I think he rides beyond his limits trying to get there.
No matter what he does, Michael Dunlop is always going to beat him (as will several others, a lot of the time). He said himself that if you put Michael Dunlop on a pushbike, he would still win.
I hope hes clever enough to be honest with himself and concentrate on all the other stuff he does so well.
If not, I can see it ending badly, and that would be tragic for such a great character.

Absolutely 'spot on' Migv6. His lack of fear is bigger than his ability. I also am a fan, but now is the time to hang up the leathers.  .

+1,the size or his  balls won't keep him alive sadly,I too hope he packs it in while he's able too.
