M3 was a thriller as well. But Rossi just continues to be such a force in racing. All credit to Marquez as well for making it back to 5th from dead last.

Great to see the Ducs back in the hunt. Fabulous last few laps. Rossi continues to amaze.

On the edge of my seat the whole race. Could of thrown a blanket over the top four protagonists!! Rossi shows he still has the passion & drive. Ducati is on power again.

Ducatis are getting special advantages right now, as soon as they go away the yamahas will look even stronger.
Rossi looks like a youngster out there again, I always liked seeing him charge the leaders like no one else can. |

Just watched the race (avoided this thread until watched). DAMN! Moto GP makes F1 look like floats in the Pasadena Rose Parade. Balls of steel. Great race! The last two laps were as good as racing gets.
FS2 is broadcasting the season here on Time Warner. I'm looking forward to following the entire season. I guess Ducati had a soft compound front tire, giving them a slight advantage in the corners. When that goes away I don't think the straight-line power of the Ducati will be enough to keep up with the Yamaha under Rossi. Marquez cut through from the back like Jeremy McGrath used to do in motocross. Almost makes it look easy. The race just wasn't quite long enough.

Well Marquez' vulnerability had to poke through eventually. Wouldn't it be great if he and Rossi were in a shootout all season long?

Anyone know of a link to watch the recorded version of the race without having to pay $150. I was at the shop and missed it
