Karel picked the wrong race not to ride. (Assuming he wouldn't have crashed).
 
So different to the MotoGP.

So different to MotoGP? Why? Because we had 3 jump starts, 5 crashes, leaders going off track, drive through penalties, guys coming back through the field. Yeah, it was different, no .....



Anyways, very exciting race. Was hoping to see more shenanigans from Dovi Sic, but it was good enough. Thanks everybody for gifting Pedro a win.



Nicky, WTF man! Needs to hold it together. Big .... up today. (You too Alvaro, but I don't give a .... about you that much).
 
How many on soft tyres? Stoner would not have won regardless, never wins in conditions which suit soft tyres for others or on soft tyres himself.

I think Dovizioso was the only one on a soft rear. A bit peculiar to say that the fastest rider in 3 of the 4 practices was never going to win. Stoner himself seemed very disappointed with third in the post-race conference.







Thanks everybody for gifting Pedro a win.

The lap times showed a Pedrosa who figured out the settings for the race and was going to fight for the win, and Lorenzo was there but couldn't stay with him. Dovi's and Stoner's mistakes did make it easier, though.
 
Nice battle at the end between Dovi and Sic.

Nothing to say about Pedrosa and Lorenzo, except they rode a great race (especialy Pedrosa), but others made it easier for them.



The race was a bit chaotic at first with sudden .... up's by Rossi and then Stoner and after that the jump start penalties.

Nice recoverys by Stoner, Spies, Dovi, Sic, and Hayden.

Hayden missed a great result, but at least he came back to 7th from 10th place.

Great losers of this race were Bautista and Elias.



Anyway it is good for the championship now that Lorenzo finished in front of Stoner, but he needs more points and even a better result than today, if he wants to make a real impression on Stoner and the championship.
 
Damian Cudlin, you sir ...... up. Easy points thrown away. Could have been a Cinderella story, now its a FAIL.

Spectator experience was different. Moto2 was nice racing. MoroGP not so nice. And I dont understand why race direction took out 3 of the top 4 for a ride through? Looking at the replay, Dovi didnt really do a jump start, he did not cross the line, and did strat from standing still position.
