motoGP epic

Last lap; Catalunya.

In the 125s Simon thought he'd won a lap early. Hilarious if it wasn't so sad for him.

In the motoGP class Rossi showed his upstart team mate (who is actually really quite good) just why he is called the Doctor. My kids and W2.0 were screaming at the TV as I had several seizures.

Three riders at the top of the table each with 106 points. Get in there. It'll be on youtube somewhere, but I haven't got the time to find it

Only saw the Motogp. Missed it live and was watching it on interactive , last lap arrived and the signal went straight to Queens club and Andy Murray's semi final.
Saw it later. The man is a genius, give him an inch and he'll fit a bike through it.

By the way, Lorenzo has beaten Rossi in a straight fight more than any other team mate he's had.

What a fantastic last lap, and a decisive overtake on the last corner of the last lap! Absolutely outstanding racing from both Lorenzo and Rossi.


I remember a British Bike GP years ago when Barry Sheene was involved in an epic battle (with Kenny Roberts, I think), and was giving the 'v'-sign behind his back each time he overtook for the lead!

I saw both races, live. You would have thought that Simon would notice the absence of the chequered flag to confirm his victory and not to assume it was over a lap too soon.

What. A. Race. I pretty much prefer everything about MotoGP compared to F1 - the competitors, presenters and commentators, the racing, the pit/grid girls, everything, apart from one thing..... The fact it's bikes and not cars!
