Good fucking race... (for fourth place)
1. Stoner
2. Lorenzo
3. Pedrosa
4. Devizioso
5. Rossi
6. Toseland
7. Edwards
Don't really care about the rest at this point.
Last years race was more exciting with Rossi battling Stoner through the corners and Stoner pulling ahead on the straight. Real good race for the first 1/3rd of it. Good battles for the top 5 spots. Then Stoner got the lead and Lorenzo was on his ass until about 5-7 laps to go. Stoner's the man to beat, yet again.
Lorenzo's a force though. It's still early, but he rode strong. Pretty good rookies this year. Will make it interesting when the current stars leave.

wierd... yeah when I went to log in.... the log in bar looked diffrent... instead of the little open blocks asking for username and password... there was only a "login" button... when I clicked it a log in area popped up in the middle of the screen... and that's where I was getting my error...
I clicked register and the normal login bar was there and that's the only way I was able to log in...
even then I wasn't able to access the HiRes version till the warmup lap... guess I'll be getting up even earlier to log in... or log'n in before bed next time...

If you log-in before bed, you'll still have to log-in before the race. it times out after a while.

yea, the race was good watchin rossi get to the lead. but it was like stoner was just fooling around the first 8 or 9 laps and then said "ah fuck it time to win"

yeah, Lorenzo impressed me. good shit. I was waiting for Pedrosa to dive bomb Rossi when he was behind him... fuck'n tool
man even Hopper faded bad at the end... West didn't fade... course it's hard to fade from LAST FUCKING PLACE! I wish they'd interview every rider post race. I'd like to hear what Rossi had to say... I saw him on the cam give a sign that I took as him spinning his tires... but who knows... he didn't look upset...
You had to guess Michelin was gonna bounce back strong from last years disappointment. At least I got one thing right on GP manager. I picked Bridgestone.

Besides Hopper, I had Elias. So I'm in the same boat. Two of the three guys I picked to be on the podium were, but not in the right spots I picked. Bullshit.

I was good for about a lap and a half.... Rossi 1 Stoner 2... Too bad the race didn't end with 18 laps to go
did Elias finish in the points? what bike and team did you have?

Why, because he actually had to "work" for it this time. And, Rossi ran away with it for how many years?
Good Lord that Ducati bucks around on the track.

he didn't work for it! he made three or four good passes and was in first! and that was it!
rossi always made it intresting... he did have several races he ran away... but usaully he was in 2nd with like 4 or 5 laps to go... stalk'n the rider ahead of him..
I'm not say'n stoner is a bad rider... the dude's bad ass... I'm just saying from an entertainment standpoint... it sucked
not even a good wreck! (my connection cut out for the one wreck and I didn't even see who it was)

Shitty race was shitty. Made even worse by the speed coverage being delayed until 10 and then their usual full ad break every 3 laps with no reviews of what went on during the break.
FUCK SPEED TV

I have Alice Ducati (zero points). And Honda as a bike.

Ahhhhh, "entertainment" Gotcha.
Rossi is a character. And, he ran away with his titles - even if he didn't run away with his races.
See, I'm one of those that would rather see someone win the title by WINNING the fucking title, and maybe even dominate, rather than win because they consistently stayed upright.
MotoGP is a cast of characters. I mean, the reason Pedrosa got such a bad rap early was because he was SO serious (and continues to be). It's good to see Lorenzo hang in the front, and even more adding to that cast with the likes of Divizioso hanging in there.... I thought it was a good race. :shrug:

yeah I hear ya... Hayden's championship was kinda that way... he didn't win ALL that many races... he was just consistently on the podium...
I guess the thing that made it so un entertaining is that once casy got by Rossi... you knew it was over... he pulled on Rossi quickly... and if Lorenzo hadn't gotten by when he did... he wouldn't have even seen -1sec from Stoner.

Consistency is a huge part of racing. Did everyone forget that Rossi had an 8 point lead going into the last race of 06? Perhaps the greatest choke ever pulled off in Motorcycle racing.
It's good to see some new guys up front. Should be an entertaining season.

Yeah apparently, tire selection doesn't mean shit when it comes to top speed. I see Michelins AND Bridgestones toward the top of that list.
