Well is was an interesting race to say the least. Of course Rossi was going to win (awesome job btw) but I can't say I could have predicted the rest of the top 5.Good results for the MotoGP veterans Capirossi and Nakano. Just goes to prove that if you want something bad enough then it doesn't matter if your bones are loosing density. And speaking of bones, Westy seems to have found something that neither of us thought he had...a spine.
Interesting talk with Ant West at the end of the race, he mentioned that being in the front pack gave him the motivation to keep pushing, where as being at the back only made him depressed. Firstly, you'd think he'd be used to being at the back by now and secondly, if sucking so badly that you're entire MotoGP career may be reduced to 1 year doesn't give you motivation to maybe try and get a few points then the boy has problems.
I suppose I should also touch on Stoners crash.......HAHAHA!
I know, I know he's an Aussie and we are supposed to support him, but lets not forget the tall poppie syndrome. Also interesting he didn't seem to find anything to complain about at the end of the race.
Other than those few surprises (including Toni Elias managing to come through the pack from 13th position on the grid) the race ended up like most of us expected, taking into consideration the Michelin vs Bridgestone issues. And I'm sure most of the Michelin riders could empathise with Pedrosa when he said at the end of the race "I am berry berry disappointed".
