Randy de Puniet is OK

TwitGP thought it was a shame that everyone had forgotten silken-chested Randy de Puniet broke his leg at the German GP, after Mika Kallio mistook an outstretched shin for a piece of track.

A fair few TwitGP followers had been asking us about his welfare so we used all the power at our disposal to write an email. Look, here's a picture of it:






Obviously, because TwitGP spends most of its time inventing make-believe games, we didn't expect a reply from an ACTUAL MotoGP team who are busy organising sponsors and logistics and satellites, or whatever it is satellite teams organise. Oh we of little faith:



LCR Honda are now our new favourite team.

To save you the trouble of visiting Randy's website, we did. And TwitGP harvested the following GENUINE sentences from its smooth-chested pages:

"Today I regularly see Doctor Achou, who follows the evolution of my convalescence." - DOCTOR ACHOU? Serious? (Knock knock. Who's there. Doctor Ach. Doctor Ach who? Yes, that's me.)

"I can’t stand following a GP on television." - Woah, go easy on the girl, she's new.

"I am now in Cannes to pursue my reeducation." - TwitGP has been to Cannes. The only thing it got re-educated about was Russian hookers.

"I keep doing everything to be back on my bike in Brno." - And here's a picture of him about to start doing everything with whom we assume is his crew chief:


 That's our boy. Good on ya Randy.

  2. This is awesome!! TwitGP has made a step in to the real world and made some connection to the great rider Randy! Randy sure likes his sponsors ;)

  3. and what a lovely nurse he has! See, that's why we weren't worried. We knew he'd be in better hands than that guy who's sponsored by an economy car company. What good is a Fiat 500 for a 6' tall guy with a broken leg? I bet all the racers are wishing they had Playboy sponsorship now!
