Not Rossi....that Duc is a disaster. It's a clash of egos right now....Ducati insisted last year they had a winning package and Stoner was just moaning....but...it's apparent that the problem lies in the front end of that bike. Poor Rossi binned it HARD today.....just lost the front....no warning, no nothing....3rd gear wide open and the front just gone. Ducati is going to have to swallow their pride and redesign that front end or the Ducati/Rossi project is gonna go NO WHERE.

Honestly, I don't really care so much about the racing in MotoGP....though it IS nice to see a couple more legitimate contenders in Simoncelli and Spies. I'm looking forward to the REAL racing in the Moto2 class.

Andrea Iannone had a horrid QP again....Qatar is a nice wide track with plenty of overtaking points....so he was able to move up the grid quickly during the race. I wonder if he'll have the pace to do the same thing tomorrow on a much tighter and demanding circuit? It's not helping his case that Bradl is riding LIGHTS OUT again this week-end. He will likely have cleared off at the front again by the time Iannone can make any headway through the pack.

Wet race! This should be interesting!

Stoner is away at the front....Lorenzo is trying to hang on to him....Simoncelli in 3rd.....and...wait for it....ROSSI in 4th.

Hahahaha....Simoncelli just passed Lorenzo...then punted Stoner wide...all within a couple of corners. I'm sure Stoner is seeing red in his helmet at this point....this should be good.

And Rossi just took Lorenzo....up to 3rd!

Ohman....Rossi just pulled a rookie move and wiped himself and Stoner....Christ...that's all we'll hear about for the next month.

Feck....Simoncelli just highsided himself out of the lead at turn 1.

Lorenzo....Pedrosa....Spies...Hayden. And the race isn't even half over.

Cal Crutchlow up to 5th....Rossi back up to 10th.

Apparently, Pedrosa's arm is going off again....he's fallen way off the pace. Spies will catch him in the next lap or two for sure.

Cal Crutchlow choked and binned it..that would have been a fantastic result for him.

Spies is closed right up on Pedrosa...he has 5 laps to make a move and take 2nd.

Spies took him down the back straight....Pedrosa is hurting...no way for him to fight back.

Holy shit....fecking Spies crashed out of 2nd. WOW...that is gonna put Colin Edwards....Colin fecking Edwards on the podium. WTF

Jesus Christ....Colin Edwards ran off the track....now Hayden is going to take his podium spot. WOW

1) Lorenzo
2) Pedrosa
3) Hayden
4) Aoyama
5) Rossi
6) Barbera
7) Abraham
8) Crutchlow
9) Elias
10) Hopkins
11) Capirossi
12) Dovi

What a fucking douche bag....

Rossi went straight to Stoner's garage to apologize...and Stoner told him "Had something with your shoulder did you? Obviously your ambition outweighed your talent."

Great summary, Gregman!

What a cluster fuck.

Fuck Stoner. He was about a second slower than Rossi.

Rossi made a stupid pass. He should have waited a few corners but I don't fault him for getting a little impatient with the girl in front.

How the heck did Rossi even challenge Stoner? Stoner was at pole and he was at 12th?

He was riding hard....Stoner started out hard but realized the soft rain tire wasn't gonna go the distance if he kept taxing it at that pace so he eased up.

By the end of the race, the rain tires all looked like slicks....I've never seen tires destroyed to that degree before. Hayden said he could only manage 1/2 throttle on the straights on the last 2 laps or otherwise the rear would spin uncontrolled.

I'm sure Bridgestone is going to be getting an earful about bringing a soft AND hard compound rain tire to each circuit from here on out.
