Fantastic, well-fought victory for Dani. Great result for Cal, especially with injury. Stonking ride by Marquez.

I think Crutchlow is also top Yamaha in the championship now, too.

Thanks Cal, that's crowned a great day and a great weekend.

Marquez's move on Dovi was one of the bravest I've seen in MotoGP. It's one of the great fast corners and to not think twice, run it up the inside on the wet part of the track at the first chance into the chicane was brave.

Interesting Cal said it was "maybe to late" about Herve offering him a new contract...

Glad to see Scotty got the monkey off his back, and great ride by Cal.

Hate the conditions when they are like that. Must be a nightmare to ride in.

Perhaps most of us have been a little hasty writhing off the pedrobot for not having the fire?

Marquez got to admit I expect him on the podium every race now.

Crutchlow he's hard as fk he seems to need a good crash to get him on for the race, anyone think he'll be on Rossi' s bike next year?

Dovi got to be best ride of the day, top work hopefully there turning a corner with that bike.

Unless you've been in bsb, that's pretty much the conditions most weekends here.

A great day for the Brits and I was jumping around like a loon when Scott won. Cal being second was just as good and his best result, credit to him and his broken leg.
Yamaha need to re-look at Cal with all the recent speculation and either offer him an extension of contract or at least a engine lease on a 'CRT' *cough, cough Kalex *cough with Redding *cough.

Did you hear Hopper's comments? Testing in two months. He didn't specify MotoGP, but I'm hoping it's on the Suzuki at Barca.

Great racing, hope for more of the same from Mr Redding!

Awesome for Cal, it think his 'too late for Herve' comment was in jest. Any idea what happened to Lorenzo? BenS pies suffered with visor misting with a HJC lid last season, I believe, Jorge's looked pretty clear on the telly mind.

Marc Marquez - wow!

If it was not for the poor start and slow first few laps for Marquez I am sure he would have been challenging for the win.

Cal had a great ride, glad to see him rewarded for riding thru the pain barrier, balls of steel!

I have to say I might have said "drop it" a few times at Pedrosa....

Imagine if the national anthem had been played twice on one day, when would that have happened last.

You don't think marquez was saving his tyres for a last few laps dash on fresher tyres?

Rumours of visor issues for Vale, he lost the front a bump. Jorge had bike issues.
