I guess Pedrosa isn't that happy either.

Both the 250 and MotoGP were awesome. That nearly crash in the 250's was amazing. New pair of pants for that chap methinks! I did think Stoner was going to have the MotoGP race, but I feel that it won't be long.

Top performance again by Casey and what an awesome race to watch.

Got the 250 on tape to watch too and after all I've heard, it'll be a keeper.

Didn't think Rossi was off form, running wide and losing lots of time after a very poor quaifying session and just behind Hayden at the end!!! Wasn't he something like 14s down at one point and finish about 4s down after making that many passes?

I think it might actually be worth booking Donnington and suffering the exit nightmare (or stopping over until the Monday)!

I think Suzuki/Bridgestone did a great job too, Vermeulen beating both the Ducati's and that pole lap was unbelievable to see.

I think Rossi was fastest man on circuit by a long way at the end of the race.

Awesome race. Really wanted Stoner to take that!!!.

He will very soon though, and him & pedarosa will be the class act in the field!

Saw all 3 GP's, they were all excellent. Shame Stoner just missed the win, but well deserved by Marco Melandri, total commitment from both of them. I remember Barry Sheene mentioning Casey Stoner as being a future star in one of his Bike columns a few years back; shame he's not around to see the lad doing well.

Awesome race and shame Stoner didn't get the win, but he's learnt from that one and it won't be long before he has his first win.......and I think he is a future world champion

Fantastic races, both the 250s and the GP. Very impressed with Stoner, Pedrosa and Vermulen.
