Bit of a bore that one, not much going on at all once the race settled. Gutted for Pedrosa and Hayden, particularly Nicky. I had a gut feeling he would place on the podium, damn shame. Yamaha have officially surrendered the 2007 title as development work for the 2008 YZR M1 suffers a minor setback in terms of an engine failure. When was the last time Rossi surrendered anything? Makes you think doesn't it? Stoner was again unstoppable, seemed to show a bit more emotion than usual as he crossed the line and the 85 point championship lead crossed his mind, good on him, another predictably perfect race. Suzuki are on a roll. I wish Vermeulen had caught Stoner and Hopper wished he hadn't chose that harder rear tyre. Elias showed some guts in the tussle with Westy, he's a tough wee guy that Elias, their battle was the best value of the race for me.
