OKay, for all those who didn't have TV, Pedrosa won the race, leading from first lap to last as he usually does when he wins !!

I don't know but smhow I felt, Rossi is really being cold to Lorenzo !!

^^ or you can say Lorenzo is hot to Rossi!!

Kudos to both Stoner and Lorenzo for finishing well after that nasty crash yesterday.

actually just managed to find a link for live streaming.. just saw the last 30 secs of the race.. Rossi came 2nd.. nevermind.. he still leads the championship table.. \m/ Happy for Pedrosa though..

**sukant08** · 07-06-2009, 05:03 AM

I think, very soon things might go ugly between Rossi and Lorenzo tho !!

It'd be sad ....
Anyway on to Sausagering !!

Sausagering might be a title-decider

Nice race this weekend, although I missed the 125 & 250s

. It was incredible to see this young Spaniard riding with dislocated shoulder. Lorenzo is the man to watch out. I missed the initial laps. When I started Rossi had already overtaken Stoner. Good race for Pedrosa though he seemed to rest down in the last lap giving Rossi a thought to take a shot at him. One more lap and it would surely have been Rossi at the first position.

@Sukant: Rossi being cold to Lorenzo? What happened? Did I miss anything at the starting of the Race?

Title Decider

? We are just half way down the season and still 9 races to go on. The title is still wide open and somehow I have a feeling that the Valencia race is gonna be the decider.

So, finally Pedrosa makes it to the podium..and finishes first..

I guess Laguna is a HONDA dominated circuit..i still remember Hayden winning the race a few years back(have that movie too

)..!!

^^ Nicky won two races back to back in 2005 and 2006.. but that was in Honda's 990cc era. Things changed for Nicky drastically, he couldn't adapt to the 800 Honda that easily.

Pedrosa came back with a fantastic ride & won, I said it earlier.. I feel his injuries drag him out of title fight otherwise he's a front-runner!!

**TheRedPill** · 07-06-2009, 12:22 PM

Nice race!!
I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Rossi closing in and going for the kill in the last lap

.
@Sukant: Not even one more lap, one more corner would have been enough for Rossi to sneak in

. But the reason Rossi was able to catch up was Dani getting slower by the turn.

Guys what abt Jorge Lorenzo??? despite his injury the young man had a fantastic fantastic ride there... hats off to him...

Yeah Sincere respect for this guy. He is one brave rider but I think he needs to focus more on the bigger picture. Had he fallen off in that turn while overtaking Rossi, his this championship run for this year was certainly over.

cheers to the Honda boy! i was shocked by seeing pedrosa leaving everyone standstill including the ducati when the race went on. amazing acceleration from the Honda. and liked the yamaha team members fight too although lorenzo couldnt make it, glad that he tried to beat the world champion( sad that he tried to overtake in a corner)

**prabhubravo** · 07-06-2009, 03:47 PM

I was a great race to watch! Pedrosa was fast from the start!! and he played safe in the last 3 laps. Good thinking!

Lorenzo was too good. he fell back then took everyone but 2. Thats great!

Stoner health is improving. but when 12 laps to go. he felt ill again and let Lorenzo do the Duty. Hope his health gets better for the net race.

Stoner will now stay on in the United States for extensive tests at the Fremont Surgery Center with Dr Arthur Ting and Dr Tuan, to try to understand the source of his on-going stomach complaint.
"I found it really difficult to keep my concentration over the last few laps and I was in a bit of a daze by the end. My left arm was feeling really tired by the end because of the fact there are so many left-handers here and my left wrist still doesn't have the full range of movement after my operation in the winter." - The Daily Telegraph

Lets Hope we can see a real fight from Stoner in Saschenring!!
