"considering his experience this is something I must be proud of" indeed Jorge. Linking with that I heard Jorge is in negotiations with Yamaha for next season and so far there is no deal agreed. I just hope Jorge can come to realise the value of having Rossi as a team mate and what he will gain racing him closely on 'the same' machinery.

Well done BBC for missing the 250 podium and interviews. Instead they put golf on at the same time they had golf on another red button channel and channel 2. Yes golf on 3 channels whilst cutting the end of the 250cc race coverage. Won't even bother commenting on the commentary.
