Oh damm, Bautista's bike failed in the last lap of the race while leading!!!

Anyway congrats to Lüthi the guy really needed this win, after such a horrible start of the season.

250cc was pretty exciting too, Lorenzo crashed out very early in a stupid over optimistic manouver, clearly he's lost it mentally. What a spoilt brat I think he needs a good slap on the face to stop acting like a crybaby.

Takahashi won his first GP, beating his more experienced teammate Dovizioso, and it was a Honda 1,2,3 with Shuhei Aoyama third just ahead of his brother Hiroshi on the KTM. Again Aprilia failed miserably, De Angelis a distant 5th was the best Aprilia.

ah But consistencey pays off with Dovi, thats why he is leading the series.

Lorenzo what can I say????

Good clean riding from the Aoyama Bros and an overall good race, bet Wes was upset when Chaz got taken out on lap 4!!

Missed the 125 was it good?

Lorenzo did well out of the final corner to hold onto the win.

I don't like Lorenzo very much either, he is a bit of a Biaggi. Though I dislike Dovizioso much more.

Lozzy idolises Biaggi ... that could be the reason?

I love lorenzo ... he's such a mad man on a bike and so ballsy on the brakes .... it makes for good watching you must admit...

twas a good 250's race, i missed the 125's ....

Yeah Lorenzo is really fun to watch, the guy is a bit of a nutter, but when something goes wrong he always blames the others or the bike, that's why I don't like him too much (despite being Spaniard!).

I'd prefer to see Barberá winning unfortunately he retired with a damaged clutch.

I missed 125s and 250 again. I didn't get home from Road America until midnight last night and watched MotoGP and fell asleep so I could wake up today and do homework. That's been going very well so far...

We are witnessing evolution in three stages: Lozzy > Stoner > Biaggi

Barberá (Aprilia Fortuna 250cc) suffered a road accident when he was riding his bicycle, he broke his arm, so he will miss the next 2 rounds of the championship.

I'm really pissed I was really hoping he would challenge for the title this year, but the clutch failure and this injury means hes got 0 points out of 3 races.

I read that this morning as well on the official site. Although, they claim it was a mountain biking accident.

Displacement. 125 cubic centimeters (cc), 250cc and 500cc. 125cc is the entry level World Championship series, 250cc is the next step up and 500cc was the premier class but the rules changed to 990cc four strokes in 2002. 125cc, 250cc and 500cc bikes were, or still are, two stroke machines. Hope that answers your question.
