That could have been a monstrous crash. I just found it on youtube. Was outside during the telecast. Amazing stuff there.

anyone paying attention to the rookie cup racers? During the race they were showing highlights from the 250 race and those lil buggers were really fighting to win!! Bumping and rubbing, elbowing...it was a trip watching them go at it.

That was a ridiculous fight! Rossi knew that if Stoner got in front he could quickly put a gap on him...he did what he had to do.

Did anyone see the quote from Rossi on motogp.com on Sunday.

To stop Stoner, you´d have to shoot him´

That is one of the best things about motorcycle racing versus F1...they are not afriad to talk about how great the other riders are. Plus Rossi is hilarious.

I like Casey being angry after the race but Rossi was no where near him when he crashed so Nyah,nyah,nyah!

Was he really? Rossi did not make him brake late and run it wide...the fact that he toppled over was just pure bad luck after that.
