I have just listened to Stoners post race interview. WHAT A ****.
This is not knitting it is motorcycle racing. The most amazing display of psychological racing by Rossi. And SToner I think you have just lost all respect from me and many others for your ungracious display.

The G.O.A.T. showed the way a real rider should ride. Congrats to Stoner for trying to hang but it takes more than a bike. Like I said before you need what's between the ears. GREAT FIGHT BUT THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!! SSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So erm....how far was stoner ment to win by?
awesome...just ******* awesome race between the both of them...thats motogp at its best...and its a shame it finished early with stoner making the mistake, but anyone has to take their hat off to rossi, i've never seen someone ride harder...we all knew from qualifying how far he was behind, and some how he managed to do that...sorry but i've got to say it..to the stoner groupies and rossi haters...HOW'S THEM APPLES!
kudos to stoner as well though, couldn't have been a better battle and no one else could have battled like that with rossi..
i just hope stoner doesn't moan about the battle, cos this is what bikes are all about!
Stunning race while it lasted, looks it would been that way right to the end had Stoner not braked a little too late and lost it into the last corner. Well done to Rossi though, he clearly didn't show is full hand over the weekend, great race by him. Can't wait for the second part of the season to get going. Looks like both Stoner and Rossi wont give an inch to each other
And that my friends was a riding lesson. Man beats ELECTRONICS. That was the most amazing display of talent EVER. Casey should have won that race and Rossi VASTLY superior talent PWNED HIM. Rossi Rules

Wow, now THAT was racing!
No doubt the Rissi maniacs will gloat and the Stoner maniacs make daft excuses, but Stoner and Rossi round brilliantly today.
This one's gotta be Rossi's race though. NOBODY expected that. He played some mentally devastating blows... Frastrating Stoner by slowing the pace and raising it, frustrating Stoner into a mistake...
Rossi at his best! Stoner doesn't look happy. You rode great Casey, don't spoil it by being bitter...

Any stoner fanboy that criticises Rossi is totally and utterly clueless about Motorcycle Racing.

What a great race up until the incident... shame about a couple of his comments about the overtaking but his opinion so fair play.
Im a Rossi fan but I for one think Stoner did his image a lot of good by keep fighting, and more importantly when he ran off he could easily have taken Rossi with him but didnt.
Glad to see Rossi take the fight to Stoner, obviously I wasnt there but im curious if Stoner would have made the same comments if he had come out on top?
Either way, great race... brilliant to see! Dani wont be able to compete with those 2 over the rest of the season.
Yeeeeowww!!! What a Race! ... That is why Valentino Rossi is the man himself.. just full of surprises ... pity that stoner went off .. should have been up there fighting till the last lap !!!

Did you hear what Casey said to the BBC? I'm sorry but he wonders why he's not got that many fans around the world.
Seems that Stoner has spat the dummy out with this one. Whining like a little b1tch about some hard racing. The one thing I saw that was uncalled for was the incident at the corkscrew, but Stoner avoided contact after Rossi ran over the dirt. No need to go on about it in his post-race interview.
I used to be a fan of Stoner, but he's really starting to grate on me now...
Cracking ride by Dovi too.
Nasty highside for George Lawrence. After some of the abuse he's given his gear this season, i think an X-Lite lid could be on my shopping list later this year...
