Roll on next season.

Yes

Race was very much dull Sigh. Toseland propper mucked his race up with that start But then his setup like most didnt seem too helpful. DOH.

I hope having a level playing field on tyre's will make it better. I think it will. No more tyre's to suit individual bikes/riders to give an advantage and setups "should" be easier to make the racing closer.

But I might be wrong most people seem to think single tyre is bad

He seemed to be in the same boat as Lorenzo for the majority of the race, but then Jorge found pace when James lost his. Shame for the guy.

Uneventful is an understatement.
Compared to other races throughout this season I'd say this was the least eventful of them all.

boring...just a parade. Toseland carp again, Rossi showing his usual tenth to third easy peasy overtakes. In fact I'm well dissappointed in that champion, he could have at least given us a 'showoff' ending to the last race by finishing first

And how did Malandri get the fastest lap time, was that when he went crashing off into the sunset?? alas its over for another year, summers over, roll on next year

Now that's a bit of an unfair comment on Vale there Dizzyblonde. He moved up to third. The Ducati is noticably faster than anything else there and the Honda which came second is virtually riderless so think of the power to weight ratio. I think he did superhumanly well in these circumstances. Tyres do have a big limiting factor to achieve anything higher and at the last laps of the race he couldn't push any further than possible without crashing. I'm more ****ed off with Edwards who is a brilliant rider but seems to 'settle' for places and then with that attitude ends up loosing positions.

I'm afraid you didn't notice the scarcastic humour of mine Zunkus, tiz why I put a little wink on the end. Of course Rossi showed his usual expertise of rising to the challenge of kaning the ass off his bike to deliver a podium finish, if you read the comment again and put a little tongue in cheek, you may find the slant of my
post

I mean come on who else has had 18 podium finishes this year? And in the word of montgomery Burns 'excelllent'
