Looks like Rossi has over worked his tyre's trying to catch up.
One horse race barring a driver fault.

Yep, great race from Stoner, looked to have the pace all the way through to keep Rossi in check. Would've been interesting if Rossi had got down to T1 in 1st/2nd to make it a race long battle but still think Stoner would've had it.
Good rides from Dovizioso/Edwards/Melandri though, at least they're the one's that caught my attention

Decent enough race I guess. I was gutted to see Marco put the bike into the gravel so early on, but he did well to get himself back into the points. Really want to see him stick it up Kawasaki for pulling out.

That was a mega clash!
Yup, will be interesting to see what the scrutinizers (lol) say about that incident.
Shame for rossi, but the tyres just couldn't get him up to casey without risk of crashing. Championship is by no means over for him though!

Nope, there is a long, long way to go yet. Stoner has always loved it at Losail. No real suprise that he ran away with it.
it's going to be a good season for the fans i think. watching rossi pulling stoner in was nice.
lol @ the pedroza incident, wtf happened? i race like that on go karts! slam. he was a more than a little slow/unsure putting on the gas. not like a profesional racer. stupid mistake imo.
