What are your top 5 favorite Motogp races all time? Maybe it was the battles, maybe your guy ran away with it. Whatever made it entertaining for you.
 
89 Japanese, 89 Australian, 91 Dutch, 91 German,



Those are my top four in no particular order, but the fifth is a toss between several.

1996 Japan. The only race Doohan seemed to enjoy getting beat



2011 Laguna ........ or 2011 sexingring ..... or the white ducati at PI 09?



2007 Catalunya
 
No particular order:



Silverstone 1979, Sheene vs Roberts



Donington 1993, Mackenzie taking the podium fae Fogarty after he "ran out of petrol" Even his team boss commented he had enough for the slow down lap!



Laguna Seca 2008, Rossi gets into Stoner's head and turns round the championship



Japan 1994, Say hello to Norick Abe!



Donington 2000, Rossi takes his first 500 win



5 Landmark races for me



Pete
 
^ gotta agree with Suzuka 94, such an awesome debut
<




A personal fave for me was Donington 05, the first GP i ever did. Didnt have a coat and got so wet and cold i was ill for a week afterwards, but seeing that ride from Vale was worth it - still one of his best ever rides imo.



some other favourites in no particular order...



Estoril 06

Catalunya 07

Laguna 08

Sachsenring 03

The 250 race at Donington 2000



I know its more than 5 but it really is too hard to narrow it down
 
I'm still really new to motogp (compared to some of you old timers heh) but



catalunya 07 - my personal fave

laguna 08 - nuff said

mugello 06 - that entire race was NUTS

catalunya 09 (what is it about this track that produces great racing?) - that last gasp pass made me jump up from bed haha

welkom 04 - !



most recent sach 2011 was pretty good

Assen 125cc 1997 as my 5th

Well I am extremely new to MotoGP... First raced I watched was Sachsenring of 08 and I didn't watch any of the rest in that year, but I have seen every race since Catalunya of 09. So from what I have watched...



1)Mugello 11

2)Valencia 11

3)Malaysia 10

4)Sachsenring 10

5)Qatar 11



Honestly I didn't think Catalunya 09 was all that great... It was so boring until about 3 laps to go.
 
Turkey 06. The noobs wont believe this but Toni won.

Italy 09 250cc. Some Marco madness.

Malaysia 09 250cc. Marco vs Hiro

Japan 10 Cat fight of the century

Catalunya 09
 
Turkey 06. The noobs wont believe this but Toni won.

it was an absolute classic. feels like a million years ago i was watching it.



Qatar and Donington 125s in 2008 - Scott Redding qualifying on the front row in his first ever GP before finishing 5th and setting the fastest lap, then getting that win just a few months later.

Suzuka 01 - Rossi and Biaggi's little tussle

Estoril 2010, 125 race again - Marquez crashing on the sighting lap for the restart, his team fixing the bike in just a few minutes, then Marquez starting dead last and still winning the race.

Qatar 2010 Moto2 - Tomizawa!!
 
Turkey 06. The noobs wont believe this but Toni won.



Don't you mean Estoril? Melandri won the Turkey round passing Stoner at the last corner



Mine:



Jerez 05

Mugello 06

Laguna 08

Brno 06



Can't think of a fifth
 
Most of mine have been named, I can only add Assen 06.
 
Welkom 04

Jerez 05

Turkey 06

Catalunya 07

Assen 07



Another couple



Mugello 06

Laguna 08

Sachensring 11
 
great list spooky, i'd add brno 2003 (one of my all time favorite rossi races), le mans 2003 (the highest point in gibernaus career) ,catalunya 1992 and jerez 96 simply because that last lap was the craziest .... i've ever seen in any form of motorsport

My bad, I will claim a high-on moment. I meant Marco M. Let me rephrase that.



Noob won't belive this but Melandri won. Yup still works, even better actually.

had some bike trouble and dropped back to about 9th then this happened

And that's why he is called the Goat, he has dominated on, 125, 250, 500, 990 and 800, and won Suzuka on a superbike. Ok he's struggling with the Duke, but, he's older, wiser, and aware of how many times it has spat him off. He's not some daft kid with nothing to lose, and he's clever enough to realise that Rainey, Schwantz, Doohan and Beattie all retired disabled, and he wants to go to WRC for a new career.

Thats the great thing about Stoner, even with this guys record, Stoner came along and repeatedly and conclusively Whoops his arse.



And to get a datum, on how much better Stoner is, Rossi goes to Ducati, and gets trounced even more!! It just doesn't get much better.

I know, all the titles and wins Stoner achieved in all the classes he's amazing, shame he only knows 3 chords
