Anyone what the race this morning?
It was delayed due to being rained out so it was aired live at 1:45am WST.
Casey dominated from start to finish, Rossi 2nd and Lorenzo 3rd.
Vermeulen came in 7th.

yeah down in syd it started at like 4am.

rossi closed down the gap to 1.8sec but like he said he couldnt keep riding that way it was either win, or come off or just manage a comfortable 20 points.

stoner rode well

Anyone watch last night?Was an interesting race.
It started in wet conditions and Lorenzo stormed off ahead of everybody. Then as the track began to dry out, riders began to take the gamble to make a pit stop to change bikes to a dry set up bike. That's right pit stops in Moto GP!
Rossi was one of the first and crashed only a couple of laps out on slicks.
So it ended with Lorenzo 1st, Melandri 2nd (vary well done), and Pedrosa 3rd.
Stoner was never comfortable on the wet bike, but did well to finish 5th.
This race really mixed up the championship...

vermulen was running well too

Yeh he did ok. I really thought he was gonna be stronger at the start.
He usually does well in wet conditions.
