As for Lorenzo? Awesome race by him. Fantasticly riden and kept his cool. Stoner? Man he did an awesome job! So surprised really. Vale though? :confused: I was very concerned but also worried for him? I just could not piece together what was going on there?

We'll have to wait for the next round to see what 'Could' happen.

- Lorenzo Space man - Very funny punt, maybe he is too much like Vale?

Something to do with blood pressure?

Nah that was the explanation about Stoner.
Vale couldnt get a set up and had no rear grip.

Great racing by Stoner and Vale- 3rd place quali times practically all race!!

Poor Jorge :(

I think Vale was playing mind games with Stoner,on the grounds that his mystery illness was more psychological than physical, cos he didnt need to push that hard once Jorge was out.

And I think Stoner was playing those same mind games right back when he said after the race that his bike wasnt working properly and he should have gone faster.

Ho hey...eh Jorge.

An improvement on the last few races, but Moto GP still fails in comparison to World Superbikes.

It is a shame that Lorenzo fell because I wanted the title to go to the wire. However it's not looking likely now.

I just don't find it as exciting. I think World Superbikes thrives at not having the same media attention placed upon it. You get more varied winners for one and this year's title battle has been very exciting.

I think what hasn't helped Moto Gp is Stoner's illness and Lorenzo's repeated offs.

Since about Donington Moto GP has seemed to nosedive in the quality of races whereas World Superbikes appears to have picked up.

Yamaha's have poor acceleration compared to Ducati's that was hurting Rossi a lot,and add to that Stoner is crazy at this track (3 in a row).Rossi did great considering the situation.
The pressure got to Lorenzo,it absolutely showed,too eager now too many times.Maybe next year.

WSB still looks amateurish compared to MotoGP.
Sure amateur sport can be exciting and at times more exciting than real and the highest level of that sport's hierarchy but top level is still top level.
