Nicky dude - wha hoppened? Not that Hayden has ever done well at Donnington.
Bummer.
Ducati riders are doing fine....with Stoner in 4th and Kallio in 11th....Stoner will be the fight, and Kallio did well for a rookie
It is only 2 of the Ducati riders are struggling......and these are not a shock really.

Cool
That might seem close, but it really isnt, translates to around 15-20 seconds at the end of the race. It is closer than the top 6 in WSBK at Brno which is 1.1 seconds difference from 1st to 6th

Well done Rossi!
Stoner's
On the 2nd row of the grid.
In poor health
At a very physical track
= Won't be happy with fourth or fifth. It'll be a psychological beat-down for him.
Hey I'm a fan. Just hate to see the championship slipping away.
All the excitement now is about how long it will take Rossi to win another championship.

A lot depends on the outcome of this race. Jorge going to Honda may screw him for any more parts so even if he wins Rossi will be pushed ahead. If Jorge is staying and Rossi continues to beat him will he start to lose momentum? Stoner not winning is just reality this round he can hardly practice. Is he going to be so far behind that the magic 09 Rossi season got the championship locked up? Pedrosa is looking for a job so he will be riding out of his mind. If he wipes out and further injures himself.....man too many possibilities...
I did find one good spot at Goddards where someone left a gate open so I could get right up to the fence & poke the camera through. Bloody marshalls spotted me though and moved us all on after giving me a bit of a bollocking.
