What a little pregnant dog Stoner was at the post race interviews, complaining about Rossi passing him. I think Stoner has got used to blasting off into the distance without having to fight for his wins and when someone makes him work for it he cannot handle it.

Rossi was his usual relaxed self at the interview (win or lose) but who knows what he said afterwards in Italian. Anyone know?

yep.

Rossi is unreal!  He ran a perfect race to keep Stoner at bay.  Knew once Stoner ran wide in T2 it was only a matter of time before he ran off again.  It seemed he was trying hard on the straight to get by.  Or at least check his draft and timing for the line if it came to that on the last lap.  I told my wife it was only a matter of time before one of them went down considering how hard they were going at it.  Awesome race!!!

Can't take anything away from Stoner.  He was in it to win it.  Made Rossi work for it.  Given his times through out the weekend, and the power of the Duc, he should have won.  But Rossi had other things in mind.

Nicky isn't worth a mention but I'm stoked Spies got 8th.  Good showing for good old Ben!

Rossi congratulated Stoner in the cool-off area after the race but got a lecture back on the rough passes. Rossi reportedly smiled and simply said "That's racing, Casey".

Wow, just wow.  Stoner wants nothing to do with Rossi.  Intresting...

Bout damn time.  Their relationship has been far too civil for my tastes.  I want to see the fire that former rivals ignited in Rossi and vice versa.  This is when the racing gets good.  A few run offs, a few fairing touches, some flying elbows.  That is exciting stuff.

I agree that this could prove to be a lasting feud.  I just hope that Stoner is mental tougher than Biaggi and doesn't alway crash when he gets frustrated by Rossi.  GM2 called Stoner cracking under the pressure, but I hope he can clear his head before Brno.

GAHDAMMIT!!  WTF..was the race on CBS again?!  I don't have anything on TiVO!!

rather than using a season pass (channel-specific), if you use a wishlist ('MotoGP' and 'Moto GP') this won't happen.

Man..Stoner didn't even shake Rossi's hand.  Not cool!  I understand he was pissed but..it's racing.




GM2..thanks!!

Reminds me of two other guys.... Gibe and Biaggi

What a little pregnant dog Stoner is.  This is why I don't like him.  It's never "I just didn't have it today" or "congrats on an amazing race," no it's gotta be "Rossi's passes were too close" or "my forks are being sabotaged" or "my bike didn't have it."  Man up.

Well, we'll never see him in WSBK that's for sure.  He'd be complaining to the FIM after every corner.

Iz, I can burn you a dvd and send it in the mail...if you don't wanna do the whole bit torrent deal

i can't believe he hasn't already, especially since we told him the exact same thing after the last time this happened to him (and the time before, if i remember correctly).
