    Hi Guys

    Where's the best place to get stats on the motogp riders ? I'm doing an
    assignment for uni and thought I'd do something vaguely interesting :)

    Stats assignment,predict eventual championship winner (which at this
    point in the championship should be fairly straight forward unless Rossi
    breaks himself up)

    Only need fairly basic stuff but need it for all riders in the championship:
    - number of races in motogp/500s
    - number of motogp championship wins (ok that's an easy one)
    - crash rate in the last couple of years ie distinguish between crash
    and blown up DNFs)
    - number of other "major" class championships (ie 250/125/SBK/WSS/ other)
    - brand ridden now and brand ridden to previous wins

    Any other obvious predictors of success at Motogp that I should include
    as a variable ? Age ? Nationality ?

    I'm expecting to find that brand and number of previous GP wins to be
    the primary predictors (ie Rossi Biaggi and Gibernau are odds on
    favourites for obvious reasons...).

    "So far Howard's luck has survived a great deal: his move to dismiss
    broken election pledges by distinguishing between "core" and "non-core"
    promises; his retrospectively time-limited "never ever" pledge on the
    goods and services tax; his vagueness about when he committed Australia
    to war against Iraq; his shifting standards for ministerial conduct; his
    demonising of asylum seekers as child killers; his tendency to blame
    "advice" rather than to openly accept responsibility when things go wrong."
    Will Howard's luck survive another election ? Do Australians not care
    that their PM is a liar ?

    Of course there is the obvious... http://www.motogp.org
    http://www.Crash.net is another worth looking at
    http://www.europark.com/ny-gpdat/ny-gpdat.htm has lots of results over a
    variety of classes.
