Ok as no one else has bothered did you see the main man blitz the field this morn.
Fastest lap after fastest lap and just kept it there till the end. Ok will give Pedrossa his due he did keep with him till what 5 laps from the end but finally gave in.
And what was it an 8 minute in lap, its what makes him Rossi one of the greatest but have also got to give it to Lorrenzo for finishing 4th with his troubles. Poor bugger did well with fractured ankles and for stalling it on the warm up lap and then trying to push it

the boy did well. (even though i don't like the twit)
Got to give it to the director for keeping us all in touch with the fights further down the field. Kept the racing entertaining rather then concentrating on the front 2 for a change, must of been hard work

yep,hats off to lorenzo,awesome riding considering his condition
but more importantly the doctor is back,like you said fastest lap after fastest lap and how far in front of the pre race favourite stoner was he, 10 or 11 seconds if not more
shame about edwards messing up that stupid hairpin,twice. apparently the tailwind was too much hence the 213mph top speeds that were messing up their braking markers

Shame Toeslamd didn't do so well but you've got to give it to him though. He'd never raced there and still did better than riders who've been in MotoGP for years on factory bikes.
Ok Blimey I'll give you this one... I take my hat of to Rossi. Mind you the amount of demands he's made so he bl00dy well should win

word up, ROSSI'S GOD!! but fair play to lorenzo, i know hes got a little bit of attitude but i think the lad is ok, he also shows alot of respect for Rossi and other riders out there which i think says alot.

its a great season for motogp, 4 riders all with a decent shot at winning, maybe even toseland with a real out side shot, even if he's not going to win it, its great watching a brit holding his own out the track. Old hands and new ones, some real battles and rivalrys
someone is always going to whinge about something, i say lets just all enjoy some real good racing
(and agree that rossi is the best

)
