Yup - good day for racin'. I was beginning to wonder about Rossi it took him a while to find his stride. Bayliss was putting the pressure on everybody then 'poof' - Rossi checks the hell out.
That dude is incredible. No dobt he'll be a legend.

Yeah Vinnie, that was a scary "Get-off" for sure. I've read that the rear tire (Bridgestone) came apart. I was in awe when I saw him wave to the crowd as the medics attended to him. A tough hombre eh.

that was one tough SOB for soure....I watched the accident and it looked like the bike went into a tank slapper when he crested the rise, and he couldnt stop it....They said he got off at almost 200 mph, and TUMBLED, he did not slide very far, he rolled for most of the way until he stopped.....
Rossi is by far and away the best rider I can ever remember, its been a very long time since someone dominated MotoGP like he does.....

He is the MAN! Plus, he is showing Honda a little something something to boot! I agreed with his that he won 2 races! The wet and the Dry! I was more afraid for him on the wet because I did not think he could pull it off!

For me he is telling everyone how talented he is by his performance.
All those riders are the best of the best, riding the best machines the rules allow.
He is intelligent, in good shape, relates well to the public and Its not intimidated by other riders.
Honda and ducati have monsters top-speeds but Rossy just rides the hell out of that bike in the brake and the corners.
See that there is no Yamaha in the top positions.

EBD,
I read this morning that he suffered some bruising on his shoulders, and had a minor injury to one of his fingers. Pretty incredible when you consider how fast he was going.

Yeah I saw it, it was definitely UGLY. Killer race though, gotta love Sete & Valentino rubbin' elbows and dukin' it out for the lead like they did. It was action packed for sure, glad I caught it. I watched 4 races Sunday, they were all pretty damned good. ____________
