Come on boys and girls there are still two titles in play! Show some interest!

In the big boys category SV ORG's favourite little spaniard secured his 3rd pole on the trot with his rival for 2nd in the championship Rossi way back! Can the cherubic,chirpy chappie convert to a good race finish? Marco looking hot on the Gresini Honda and definitely looking to leave the team with some fond memories.

No he cant convert it! HTH.

Ducati for the win.

Dani 4th.

Got up to watch the main race but I'll watch the 125 and 250 races later.

I know the cream always rises to the top but it doesn't half make for a boring race. Seemed at times that even the commentators were struggling for something exciting to say.

Fair play to Casey Stoner though, apart from about 10 metres where he ran wide and Mr Pedrosa nipped inside only to run wide himself and Stoner re-take the lead, it was another pretty faultless performance from Casey. Boring but nonetheless faultless.

I too set the alarm.Wish I hadn't botherer now.

Yawn. There isn't much even to talk about.

Basket..I cheated as TVE1 here replay all 3 races in full at mid day!

125's- I think Gabor Talmacsi should claim the title at Valencia now. Faubel though on home soil will no doubt battle all the way.

250's- How smart was Lorenzo to back off that group of 4 other riders with just 2 laps to go? He sensed that the battle was too hot and a mistake by someone very likely. Less than a third of a lap later Kallio and Dovizioso touched and so the title was secrued.

Moto GP-Result never in doubt and again dominance by Bridgestone. Dani would have to be on his ultimate best to beat Marco at close quarters, he had the bike to do it but not the rubber I am afraid.

A race that saw two past champions running around very much as also rans with not too much of it down to themselves. Does Rossi still have fans now that podiums are not the norm anymore?

Biaggi still has fans.

Rossi is stll 2nd thy know.

Yep Valentino safe for runner up spot as Dani needs to win in Valencia with Rossi to DNF. Not really likely is it? If it happened Dani would pip him bu just 1 point!

Interesting for next year that Rossi will run Bridgestones whilst his team mate Lorenzo will be on Michelins.

I have a feeling that after the turmoil of new engine/tyre regs, things will settle down next year. At least that's what I hope. I certainly don't think Stoner will have it as easy next year.
