fantastic race!
Rossi is the man!
F1 sucks so badly compared and im saying that as a person who used to get up at 3am to watch the japanese races! no more though. I have to force myself to watch it now although schue in the last race was great.

Yup stunning stuff.
Only started watching moto gp a couple of years ago but am now hooked - unlike with f1 you don't switch off 5 mins after the start knowing you can tune an hour later and not much will have changed (well maybe the tyres but thats about it!), with motogp you stop watching for 30 seconds and you miss loads of action! Great race today especially.

Ditto that.
I stil prefer Cars to bikes but I have to say that F1 is complete tosh when compared to Moto GP whith races like we've just seen. Incredible.
When you watch F1 for years it's just so great to see overtaking again lol.

Thanks: Gave 12, Got 22 |  Sensational race, credit to the top 3 for battling to the end, but big kudos to Rossi for staying cool when he went down to fifth and coming back in style. Exhilerating stuff!

Absolutely incredible racing, great to see the respect between Rossi and Capparossi. Really hard but fair racing, F1 would love this amount of excitement. So, so glad Rossi is staying with MotoGP, the man is a legend. |

Great scrap at the front and only 0.7 seconds covering rossi, cap and hayden!
P.S nice 0.001sec win in the 125cc race!!! After 40 mins of racing only 1.5cm between the wheels!!!! nice work!
