I think Stoner could have spun around and ridden the bike backwards the last lap and still won.

It's interesting that this is Pedrosa's 4th season in Moto GP, Hayden in his 4th season was Moto GP champion. Next year he'll know how it feels to abandoned by HRC.

Congrats to Rossi on a well played championship, I'm hoping Spies beats his ass at Valencia.

Agreed. Rossi certainly has his work cut out for him. Stoner is not a broken man and Lorenzo is just downright frightening to be so fast so soon.

Yeah, it was truly a dominant season for Yamaha.
  • Riders Championshio Title
  • Top two RIDER positions in the World Riders Championship
  • CONSTRUCTORS title (not even a close second)
  • Top Racing Team (not even a close second)
Again, they show their current dominance as an overall package.

Rossi again proves he is up there with Ago for contention as the GOAT.

Of course some will contest this, but the results speak for themselves. The only downside is that there is nowhere to go but down from here.

Congratulations to Rossi on the 9th... "old hens make the best broth".

1 Real V4
2 Real V4
3 Virtual V4

The battle of engine architectures continues towards the final solution of all real V4s in MotoGp...

haha, Larry. You old comic you! Some would say you're just being predictably, illogically, defensive of your configuration that has been absolutely smashed by BOTH WSBK and MotoGP.
I don't buy it. You're not that dumb to ignore the reality. You just like to stir the pot.

His warning labels paid off!




It was good to see him making some aggressive moves again. He's coming around on that Ducati, I think we'll see him on the podium on more than just one occasion in 2010.
