*SPOILERS* MotoGP round 1 *SPOILERS*

Can anyone say OH MY FUCKING GOD.....

What a race.

Knew Rossi was going to make a move. And he did....

But that last lap. I'm sure we'll hear more about it. Looked like a fair race move to me (not an expert obviously).

Bring on round 2.

Most berserk last 3 laps I've ever seen expecting a crash several times.

Did Rossi punt Sete off the track on the last corner?

Rossi's new foot out cornering style.

Hey, I guess I am a Rossi fan but - how he got away with 'that pass' on Gibernau I will never understand.
He took the guy's line and then ran him out and off the track......
Rossi was so hot, if Gibernau had not been there Rossi would have run wide and probably even wider.

Try that in Taupo and see how YOU get on.

But is MotoGP where the action is??
Not that WSBK is so bad this year.

gav has a video on his posts. it looks like rossi was already in front when sete turned in on him. still gibernau is not appealing it so the results stand.

when I watched the video the first time, I thought that move wasn't really fair. But on closer inspection, Rossi was actually in front of Sete coming in to that corner. From what I understand, Sete had to give way.

However, if Sete wasn't there, I reckon Rossi would have gone WIDE and Sete would have overtook him coming out of the corner and WON. But that didn't happen, and Rossi still remains champ.

Hey Gav, the video is really neat.
But when I look at it, I see Gibernau set up for his line thru that corner, then this guy on a Yamaha nips thru on the inside and takes the line away and we know how far out to the trackside verge that line took him - even with the Honda keeping him upright.

How Rossi did not get slammed for that??

Does anyone else see it like that??

But I reckon Gibernau was a real gentleman. Do gentleman win races??

And now it starts allover.
