It wasn't reported that way on the euro feeds.

You musta been watching the NASCAR channel...

rubbin' is racin' ;)

I have nothing against NASCAR...but...

Stuff like that is the reason moto people hate speed.

That's exactly what I was thinking.  Lorenzo ran right up his ass.  How is it nobody's fault?

Stoner's bike:  I liked it.  The white leathers?  Not so much.

+1 as that being the general feeling about Stoner

Exactly. Just because some people think Stoner handled the situation poorly doesn't mean they think he is slow. I think most expected him to do exactly what he has done...return and join the ranks of the big 4.

Great race by Stoner...he was flat flying! It would have been nice if Rossi had a reason to battle for 1st, but I think Stoner would have still won today. He seemed like he really wanted the win. His slides were amazing...as was the way he handled that bike bucking/shaking out of some of the corners!  [bow_down] [bow_down]

Tough luck for Hayden.  :-[

I thought Stoner's bike and leathers were cool.  [thumbsup]

The announcers on Eurosport saw it correctly I guess. They called it Lorenzos' fault all the way.

"I'm a little bit sad for this crash, not for the championship but for my mistake; I didn't expect this kind of mistake from myself,” said Lorenzo. “It was totally my fault, I miscalculated the distance off the line and Nicky braked earlier than I was expecting and I hit him.

...

“I want to say sorry to Nicky because I ruined his race today."
Like this is the racing, no?

Love the white Duke, the Oz flag, kangaroos on the boots and helmet, shit yeah! go Oz, Stoner and Ducati!

A typical Phillip Island GP. By typical I mean fantastic!

Every motorcycle rider should make the trip to the Island and stand at turn one (4 meters away) and watch those legends race around the best bike track in the world. It is a track made for GP bikes, flat out hard charging, big kahunas, thats what it is all about!

Stoner was and is the sultan of slide. To all those pretenders who doubted him, I say have a long hard look at your selves, ya wankers!

Go Stoner ya legend!

I had the Moody/Ryder show going too...did you hear them say, in the late stages of the race, that Spies would have a full 5 engine allocation for Valencia?
The tyranny of the rat race is not yet final...HST
