Penultimate round of the 2008 MotoGP World Championship takes place at Sepang in Malaysia this weekend.

It's a tough call for Spaniard Bautista, who won the 125cc race at Sepang on route to the world title two years ago, but as we witnessed at Phillip Island a couple of weeks ago he will not give up the fight until the chequered flag. Mika Kallio has dropped out of contention in third place but will be encouraged by his KTM team-mate Hiroshi Aoyama's victory last year.

Frenchman Mike di Meglio was crowned 125cc world champion in Australia after a fine victory but there is a tremendous battle for second place. Just six points separate in form German teenager Stefan Bradl, Italian Simone Corsi and 2007 World Champion and last year's winner Gabor Talmacsi.
