Dammit, now I gotta wait until the afternoon broadcast to see the end . . . that is if they continued into the next show.  That red flag extended the broadcast and cut my recording.

Yep...same thing happened to me. Oh well...they showed it in the 3 o'clock broadcast.

Great race for 3rd!! That was a nice move by Stoner.  [thumbsup] Overall amazing race by Rossi.  [bow_down]

"It was a great battle with Stoner, congratulations to him. If it happened the other way around he would surely have cried like he did after Laguna Seca [in 2008], but this is racing. I'm happy because he was smiling at the end."

I don't think I've ever seen Pedrosa smile quite that large. Congrats to him he raced very well.

Was that really a smile, or just a particularly severe grimace; due to the fact that he was uncomfortable with the way he felt inside.  Almost like Data, "this sensation is peculiar and does not compute"...

Pedrosa seems to be straining an awful lot to carry that thing. Lorenzo is not amused.

Stoner's set up, and final pass was awesome.  [thumbsup]

Hell yes it was.  Looks like he is finally learning some tactics to his racing.  To bad he's still a douche...

How much you want to bet he had a turtle poking out in his leathers?

took me 24 hours but finally watched the whole race... wow.  that was some incredible work by pedro.  fastest on the last lap after pounding out the :22s.  took em 3+ years to get that 800 sorted but i bet someone at HRC can finally stop sleeping in the office.

so i guess valentino's doing ok.  sheesh.  nice work by stoner.  major bummer for RDP, tib/fib and left leg no less.  i don't think he'll be back in 6 weeks.

bring on laguna!
Like this is the racing, no?

Or like Rossi cried after Elias carved him up. ;)

Rossi being the  intelligent fellow he is, was having a cry in an indirect way, with his own inverse whining, I reckon. If he was genuine, he would have said it was just a great pass like the one he put on Stoner at Laguna, but he couldn't help himself coz he's hurtin' from being booted off the podium.

He's a cunning and intelligent whiner, whereas Stoner is more transparent and reactive, probably a factor of their different ages.

True.
Experience in racing and experience in life.
The GOAT has probably compressed 40 odd years of experiences in his 30 odd.
