Great save alright. :niceone:
There've been a few of those, where the rider's basically slipped off the inside of the bike, like when Colin Edwards had the Yamaha cranked right over, and saved it on his elbow and knee. More recently, Lorenzo wasn't so lucky when he slipped right off, and although he got the bike restarted, it had lost the right footpeg.
Pedrosa was more lucky, when he was in a left turn, was collided with (his bike was actually bumped about half a metre to the right), dislodging him on the left side. He managed to clamber back aboard without losing much speed and only the one place.

Nah, Hacking's one is better than that! That dude 'just' had to hold onto the bars and he would be ok...Hackings one was incredible. He had to save the front, then save the rear when that went too. Then he had to bounce his body off the ground where he had to put it to stand the bike up, then get himself on the bike enough to be able to steer and avoid the wall!

:D

Well I did put a ? in the title. The Hacking one is also just the other week.
The Hacking crash clip was so close in many aspects to the save clip. Almost as if it was a practice for the save that came later...

With you on that one! Most of us would've parted company with that one!
