Enjoyed the race until my buddy that was watching with me looks up the f'n result on the internet and says to me "you will be happy" which meant Rossi was going to be on podium.  I have banned this "buddy"from ever watching motogp with me. 

Very glad that Rossi got on podium.  Hope that he will be closer to the 1st two.  Apparently lots of rear tyre grip issues for him and Pedrosa.

Very surprised that Dovi was hanging on for the whole race.

MM - he is ruining the game of guessing who will be 1st.

(Once again, moto3 is more fun to watch than any other game.  You better watch that! )

Great race, good to see the rest of the field finally giving MM a run for his money... and glad that JLo finally got the stick out of his butt about close racing.  Barring the fact that MM has won almost every race so far, it's been a pretty great season for racing.

Didnt see M2/3 yet but I heard they were pretty amazing too.

Moto2 was out of control. Haven't seen M3 yet though.

I was hoping Dovi had a final hurrah for the closing laps. I would have loved to see him stuff it past Rossi and the turd at the end. At least he got to hang with them through the duration of the race.

Very good race!!

Great battle between MM and JLo. JLo seems to have his mojo back.

Best race in a long time for the Duc. Dovi didn't get dropped as usual. Maybe we're starting to see actual improvement (as opposed to just a softer tire)!

+1 --- I think Jorge should have won that race. Odd that I actually was rooting for him.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

I would never root for JLo. Anyone else, sure.

I know. That's why it was so weird. He was just working so hard though. I think Marquez is great and it would only have been better if it was Rossi battling him instead of JLo.
