wow pasini was quick in practice...well done bradley in qualifying. chance of a podium if he can get away/good pace early on what with corsi being on track.
 
Another good solid win for Pasini in 125, Unlucky for Bradley who was running 5th before dropping it and bringing it home finally in 10th. Congrats to another young Brit Danny Webb for bagging his first WC points in 13th!
 
For a wet race that was a pretty exciting 250 gp. Pity about the backmarkers at the end, I was hoping Dovisioso would give it a real go against Kallio. Still, it keeps the championship alive for another few weeks.
Who knows? A wet race at PI and it could open right up!
 
Yay. Well done Mika!! I'd better go buy that hoody.
Was a great 250 race

Very nerve racking last lap for me

Lol. the trophy has the A style logo on it

SUOMI! SUOMI!

for Kallio. stonkin' ride!

id have liked to see Dovi win for the extra championship points but i like Kallio so im pleased.

i still havent seen the 125's but i know the results. pasini is simply amazing, enough said... and he's up to 4th in the championship!

pity about faubel being 3rd, it means he falls further behind Talmasci

125cc was not as interesting as usual, Pasini ran away and Talmacsi and Faubel were too focused on the Championship fight to take risks and fight with Passini. Talmacsi got 4 more points (9 point gap now) so Faubel needs to hit back in Australia, still the championship should be decided in the last race Faubel's home race!

Interesting that DiMeglio kid, he was racing really fast on the wet until he crashed.

250cc was really thrilling with up to 5 riders fighting for the lead at some times, the wet weather hindered the Aprilia's (because of rotary valve admission) still pretty poor showing from Lorenzo, he must be really pissed, Dovi took a chunk of his lead and the best Aprilia was his arch-enemy Barberá lol.

Anyway big congrats to Kallio for his maiden 250cc, I'm so sorry for Hiro Aoyama and Yuki Takahashi I was hoping they could get a home win.
 
Lorenzo sucked ... today!! Kallio was perfect, i really think Bautista will have to take him seriously next year. Dovi was his usual self and unfortunately its not quite enough, but if Jorge slips up again then its on. Was a shame Hiroshi fell off, but he was over the limit trying to win the race, which is understandable. Barbera gave us his usual fast but erratic and completely frustrating effort, followed by him fading into insignificance.

125 race was pretty good, a lot of people crashing but that is to be expected from the youngsters. Gabor gained some points back on Hector, which is excellent news but it will almost certainly go to the final round in spain. Pasini was excellent again, clearly the quickest 125 rider their is and i wouldn't surprised if he managed 3rd in the title!!!

yes he did.

and as far as pasini is concerned if his bike had'nt quit on him... what was it 3 or 4 times? he would have easily been the champ. it's a damn shame.
 
Bradley Smith 2008

What do people think? He's said he has offers from Aprilia and KTM. Which should he choose? Also what are his chances? The second half of this season has obviously been slightly disappointing but is that down to the bike not being competitive?

I obviously want him to go to Ktm...what with Kallio and hoping for Ktm world domination with an entry into motogp!
 
Lorenzo was in another world today, its nice to be reminded of just how superior he is!! Can't wait to have him in motogp

almost a full second over barbera in 2nd! if a dry race jorge is gonna sail away!
 
Anyone see Locatelli's crash at the first turn? Massive highside - reminded me of Capirossi's off there in 2005 - very nasty.

yeah....

was a bad 1. really scary to see that happen to any rider let alone locatelli after what he went thru.

Loca was lucky after a nasty looking crash, Costa has given him the all clear to race though. Cracking 125 race so far, both Brits are out I think.
 
Good win for Pesek, nice ride by Joan Olive into 2nd spot. Pasini salvaged 7th spot after a last lap charge, whilst championship leader Talmachai managed only 8th which means only 1 point sits between him and Faubel.
 
a real barn burner for sure! gonna go down to valencia for the title!
 
utter complete dominance! lorenzo by almost 20 sec! outstanding race for 2nd & 3rd.
