I lost a lot of respect for Stoner after his comments which won't be gotten back easily. He really came across as a whiner and a prima donna. Now that Rossi has his number, it should make for some great racing during the rest of the season – it would also be nice if Rossi's Yami picked up a few extra ponies over the summer just to even things up on the straights :)

It looks like he's doing what Casey Stoner did a few years back but as they say, you can teach a fast rider not to fall off but you can't teach a slow rider to go fast. I guess that means he'll win next year :)

As an aside, any thoughts on if and when he can catch Agostini's 122 Grands Prix race wins? If he signs with Yamaha for another two seasons I'm guessing he plans to try. Only 31 to go :) Thoughts?

That's what I like about Rossi - not only is he a great racer but he's entertaining as well. I guess that's why they pay him the big bucks :)

I hope he wasn't riding with the #1 on his bike - it might be a curse :rolleyes:

At least the Italians know how to throw a party - I don't recall any of the Japanese factories getting all wild and crazy when they won.

Honestly, does anybody really care what livery they wear? This seems to be coming more common this year. The racing gets worse but they wear really nice leathers.

I think it's taken him this long to realize what an *ss he made of himself. He's pretty much torpedoed his career and I think he’s trying to dig himself out. The legal challenge is all just smoke and mirrors.

Clutch problems aside, it was good to see a decent race for a change. I hope the rest of the season is as good regardless of who comes out on top.

I was watching Stoner at Laguna Seca during practice and once he picked his line he never missed by more than a couple of inches each time. Everyone else was trying different things but he stuck to it and just kept going. Time will tell whether or not he has Rossi's ability to vary his rhythm from farther back in the field and pull into the lead but you have to give Casey credit where it’s due. I just hope the rest of the season gets a bit more competitive so we get to enjoy MotoGP they way it should be. As for Nicky - I guess we'll have to see if he can turn it on under pressure.
