17 or so races to go, so he's not out of the championship.
Stoner is on fire though! In a similar dominant way as Rossi was back in 2001/2002

Ducati, simply a rocketship still. But Stoner is awesome on it, look where ALL the other Ducatis finished. Luck or skill???
Lorenzo, WHAT a ride, new to MotoGP class, but the top Michelin rider, top Yamaha, not to be sniffed at for the first race!!!!
Dani Pedrosa, wow, skanked up hand still, highly shown in the braking zone when him and Rossi were fighting it out. That bike now SHIFTS down the straight, out dragging the Fiat yamahas without slipstreaming. Great ride, watch out for him this year!!!!
Doviziso, again, new to MotoGP class, 2nd rate Honda, great ride, held in well, great tussle at the end.
Rossi - Poor sod, was moving to Bridgestone a bad idea for the Yamaha? He'll be back, and he out-rode the bike/tyres, still one of my heros!!
Toseland - FUCKING YEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH, GO TOSSY!!!! Damn that boy needs that new engine. He was simply oblitorated down the straights, even when in the slipstream he was still loosing out. Can't WAIT to see him when we get to the tracks with much smaller straights. Was jumping up and down. Terrible start, but AWESOME into the first corner. Mega proud of the lad (Don't forget his teammate Colin was a former WSB champion, and has ridden that bike last few years (all be it for Fiat). Great ride, we'll see more of him im sure. He looked pretty happy (and knackard) i'd say. You've reached the top now matey, time to REALLY work
SO excited about it, watched qualifying, was jumping up and down. Need to book my tickets for Donnington methinks. Gonna be PACKED this year with Toseland there.

Oh, and poor Bradley Smith suffering bike issues on the 125cc's. Watch out for the little carrot this year, he's come on leaps and bounds, he'll be a title runner this year im sure...
BUT..... New boy brits...
5th - Scot Redding
6th - Daniel Webb
The future MotoGP british riders, keep an eye out on the 125cc's. The 125's and 250's usually provide closer more exciting racing than the MotoGP class. 3 British riders. One of them is only 15 years of age!!!!!!!
