That was a fun race to watch.  Man I was screaming for Colin to take that victory.  It would have been nice to have a satellite bike up on the top step.

That race looks like it was utter chaos. Can't wait to see it later...

[ZLTFUL]

Far and away the best race of the season so far.
And Rossi crashing out of the lead then finishing 5th...classic! Exactly why Rossi who he is.

And Randy's interview after the race..."I look back and see Colin and say sheet!" 

[MrFryMoto]

i missed the first few laps - what happened to stoner?!

Stoner and Hayden gambled starting on wet tires when everyone else was on slicks, hoping for a downpour and nabbing 1st and 2nd place.  Instead, the rain never fell heavy enough to warrant full wets and they got lapped while finishing dead last.  It was "all in" as Hayden might say.

oh yeah!! 

Re: Randy's comment..I had to rewind that to make sure I heard it right.   

BTW..after watching it several times, I'm still not sure how Lorenzo went down??    He was going straight..wasn't leaning yet..was it the whiteline  Thought I heard the announcers say spmething like that??

i think it was the painted lines at the edge of the track
i'd like to see a replay of rossi's crash... way to go SPEED  

ducati marlboro team took a huge gamble today, and lost.
i don't get it... why would they send both riders out on their rain tires
