Re: MotoGP Jerez - chat here, may contain spoilers
Shame about Hopkins. That's twice that Dani has had to back off from Vale now; misjudging the corner and catching the rear tyre on the dirt reminded me of a similar mistake last year, when he took out Hayden. Seems to be a bad a habit when he's under pressure.
Stoner's bike was bucking pretty badly at the end, front wheel wobbling out of the turns. He's an aggressive rider on a handful of a bike. I expected him to fall off, and he will if he keeps riding the Ducati like that on twisty circuits. What can you say about Vale - first lap he takes the lead and then drifts off, making it look so easy.
long wait until the next one now - 4 weeks...
