If you think those 5 points went to Elias and he was the one who knocked him off at Jerez..I'd say Elias won't be getting a xmas card for a long while yet!! And yes, the bike was slightly damaged in the fall. Vale said something about the clutch lever being bent and the gear lever not being quite ok. He commented it was very tiring for both hand and ankle to change gears.It made the day a bit of an anticlimax really, but how many riders would have got back up and tried? Like Rising Sun says, Rossi is a class act, and next year, he's going to be a VERY motivated one!Pete
