Looks like its an interesting final race to MotoGP on Eurosport.

With a crashed bike Rossi is in 19th and going like a scalded cat.

Bummer lost by 5 points. Still it was one hell of a drama for quite a while.

Rossi re-entered the race 48 seconds behind the leaders. He finished 38 seconds behind!!!!!

And if anyone mentions 'the man upstairs' one more time I'm going to buy a gun and shoot the telly!!!!!

Ah! our American friends, I worry about a nation who can put a man on the moon but cant put handles on carrier bags.

Well done hayden well deserved on a less than top performing test honda

Yes well done nicky, ever since last years Brno he been riding a prototype machine, while melandri and Pedrosa been on top spec machinery.

Karma eh,

Melandri has been on a 'customer' bike, and certainly not the spec of Pedrosa's.

Top marks to the kebab shop boy!

And if Haydon's bike wasn't up to the job there's no way that HRC would allow him to race it. Just think of the embarrassment - they had enough of that when Rossi left to go to Yamaha and beat them in his first race on it!

Oi - haven't watched it yet - so PLEASE don't post with subject headings like that - cos now I'll be waiting for him to fall off

I was hoping rossi was going to make a Schumacher-esque charge from the back and going down the inside of hayden sideways in the best move ever seen in racing. But it didnt happen!

Thought it would have been an amazing end to a season, when Rossi was so unlucky to injure is hand and have reliability problems, 51 points behind after Laguna, and came back all that way!

Well done to Hayden, but he had a lucky season, if there hadnt been so many injurys near the start of the season I think the final table would have looked quite different.

Next season should be good, want to see more great Vale winning celebrations, Elias going sideways into every corner while outbraking 2 people at once, Pedrosa tiptowing behind his team mate, and Stoner not falling off!
