Btw, I just re-watched this race and in particular this lap and Stoner puts a hard pass on Rossi going up to the Corkscrew and basically runs right into him.  I hope they both keep it up 'cause this is entertainment.

Yeah, I don't know why everyone seems to miss that move.  Stoner is visibly leaning his bike into Rossi as he goes by him.  Its not like Stoner wasn't racing aggresively himself.  He almost lost that bike a few times while pushing so hard around turn 9.

ditto.. just got around to watching this again.  that whole melee started with casey literally elbowing past rossi in 4, or whatever corner that is.  i don't think it was an out of bounds move but it did set off the series of events that ended with the gravel trip and stoner have to check up on the exit of the corkscrew.

damn this is great racing from both of them.

Who had the fastest lap time of the race, and how did it compare to qualifying?

there was going to be something humorous here, but, unfortunately, i was in charge of the typing, and this is all i could come up with.

7 is the slight right kink just prior to the corkscrew.
8 is the left at the top of the corkscrew, and 8A is the right.

Did Stoner push past Rossi on the entrance to 8, and force him wide?

It would be coming out of T6 and into T7.  Rossi had the line and Stoner runs into him and takes the position.  Then you know what happens two turns later.

Was it shown on the Euro version, or only on the motogp.com version?

I watched the Euro version, and I don't recall seeing any shoving prior to the corkscrew incident.

Yep - if I remember correctly, after Casey ran wide, he set 2 new lap records back to back.

I only watched the motogp.com feeds, but you can see it clear as day on it.  If you have access to the motogp.com feeds, you can either watch the whole race to see it or I believe the highlights from the race has it as well.
