Anyone watch?? 1st 3 laps were amazing! 
was a bit disapointed that Stoner ended up dropping it as id have loved to have seen it go to the flag, it was super super close. best race this season. might have been a different story if Danny was taking part, doubt it though. And how rubbish is Euro Sports coverage?

Eurosports was about 5/6 seconds behind BBC2 as well;
it was a good race, I rate Stoner as a rider but not as a person - he always has something to moan about or some reason he didn't win other than his riding.
In fairness last night, he did say dropping it was his fault, but then refusing to shake hands with Rossi in the interviews was childish! At the end of the day, racing is racing. (I know he shook his hand on the podium)
Few races back he was bitching about his tyres, yet hes on Bridgestone and no other bridgestone runners have had the same issues

there was no physical contact. yes they pushed each other out wide on a few occasions to keep track position but the incident over the corkscrew where Rossi ran off track was an unforced racing incident and if you watch it back he had no option about where the bike went after he ran off track, it was either let the bike go where it wanted to or have an accident!
Feel sorry for Jorge Lorenzo, it was a spectaculr piece of acrobatics but I can see him being too fucked to ride again soon, with the amount of broken bones and hospital trips he'll get to the point of not being fully committed which could even open him up to more accidents

Lorenzo would be best to sit the rest of the season out whether it be now forced by injuries or team orders. He aint in the running and it would be best to give him some time to recover. He has had some serious accidents in the last few rounds that could threaten his career in the future should he sustain the same fractures over and over.
