I saw a video of the '96 Doohan/Criville rivalry on youtube a while back. That was a pretty nasty crash. Also had footage from inside the HRC pit (
) where Doohan gave him a good tounge lashing (It was so cool hearing Doohan say "........! Do you know what racing is?" and not "So, Valentino, you're having such a great season!" like channel ten make him do at PI nowdays) Pity all of it (apart from tha argument) was in Spanish.

To bad this was not a superbike question. There have been so many great world sbk races in the past 3 years.Get a hold of Phillip Island WSB 1999, We get to see Haga for the first time, riding on the old YZF750 replacing an injured Edwards, kicking everyones ... in both races and losing the front and saving it on is knee every bloody lap! Totally awesome.

it seems like i cant post without you posting sarcy or naive comments about my posts
Don't give up! they're just being sarcastic because they know you're gonna give a reaction
my trouble with giving my favourite race is that after a couple of weeks I can't tell which race was were and what happend were
I know that the sachsenringrace this year was fantastic, but I've no clue what happend
I remember that Welcome race with rossi's first race in south africa. and I loved that wet-race in donnington when everybody fell of their bikes and some regular rider grapped the win. I loved that race when rossi won and biaggi came in second, and that they were fighting behind the stage but I've no idea which race that was...
I loved the TT-assen superbike race of 2006!! JT was fantastic! and I remember what happend, so that shall be my favorite

Like others have said... just too many classics to choose from. It seems almost every round has had at least one amazing race from either the 125s 250s or 500s/MotoGP.
... can't say the same about car racing, though
Great races that come to mind:
Le Man (old circuit) 1988 -- Gardner, Lawson, Sarron and Schwantz in a classic fourway. Gardner had them gapped at the end, only for his bike to break down on the back straight on the last lap!
Suzuka 1989 -- Rainey and Schwantz. Some laps the lead changed at every corner.
Phillip Island 1989 and 1990 -- Classic Gardner. No wonder Lawson hated Phillip Island
Hockenheim 1991 -- More Rainey and Schwantz. Coming into the stadium on the last lap #34 just incredible!
Austria 1996(?) -- If my memory is correct, this was the first time Criville beat Doohan by pinching the win right at the end. And didn't Mick hate that! There's never been team orders (and team mates is a pretty loose term too!) at Repsol Honda--not when it was Rothmans Honda, either.
All of the others mentioned above were great too.
But picking out a favourite? Impossible!
