At lest we can't say the Ducati's are consistent 

Barbera and Bautista are doing a great job.

QuoteSpain's Carlos Checa has challenged Valentino Rossi to an Italian showdown on Ducati superbikes at the Imola round of the World Superbike championships - and the Italian has accepted, Italian media reports.

I've been wondering when Vale would dip his toe in the WSBK pool...

More of the same, just different...

Do I hear a little bit of a whine from Stoner? His hot wife shouldn't keep him up so late!!

Good battle for 4th there at the end. I'd like to see Simo, Dovi, and the Ben duke it out more often.

Yeppers, those 3 are pretty equally matched. That's the kind of tussle I'd like to see for the podium spots.

that battle for 4th was awesome. It was some of the best racing of the season.

Bummer that we didn't see Hayden's crash-out on the Speed replay.

Moto GP didn't play it either

Anyone else diggin Rossi's new helmet? 

Yeah, I loved that one! I think it says it all about his frustration with the Ducati. I also loved the donkey helmet a few years ago poking fun at his crash. You have to love a guy who has no problem making fun of himself in front of millions of fans.
