Two in a row for Pedrosa?

hopefully, but not counting on it. i dont think rossi will have it in him, nor melandri for that matter. i think it will come down to robets jr, pedrosa and hayden, with pedrosa on top, hayden 2nd and roberts jr third.

My money's on Rossi and Melandri (the dark horse, nice odds ;)).

Fantastic race and surely one of Valentino's best races. I feel so sorry for Tamada being taken out by Roberts though - the first time he shows signs of being back to his old form and he's unceremoniously dumped in the kitty litter. Ouch.

6 guys battling at the front, though? We need more of that. :D

what a race eh.

I'd never have bet against Rossi winning the title but you can see that he's right back into it now. 7 races to go and it's his already.

man, another nice race by rossi...and i cant believe melandri took the bait and passed rossi. i loved the shots of hayden coming down turns 6-7-8 and having it sideways while getting on the throttle. and the way hayden shut the door on pedrosa!! damn, that takes balls. a great race, thats for sure. i hope more turn out the way this one did, even if rossi still wins.

You know it's a good race when Honda's official GP press release opens with the phrase 'This was one of the great MotoGP races' despite Valentino Rossi winning on a Yamaha.
