Yeah,Rossi's injury is to his lower leg not his jaw.Apparently its pretty badly damaged so its looking like they'll be no sign of The Doctor in MotoGP for a while :(
Race was OK but nothing special IMO.Haydens crash looked very similar to both of Stoners (race crashes) to me.Do Ducati have an issue in this area ?.Scrap for 4th place was pretty entertaining,great to see Melandri back,especially after seeing him finish dead last in the opening round.Lorenzo was a bit disappointing,thought he was going to give his great mate Pedrosa a real run for his money but he didn't.Those Honda's still seem to have an edge in regards to straightline speed,reckon they'll be very well suited to the new Silverstone circuit when the race there in a fortnight.
Transfer windows open again guys if anyone fancies any changes to their line up.

Don't know about his Jaw, but his leg is certainly broken.
From the coverage you would have thought he'd died! I doubt Mika Kallio, or even Bautista's next crash will get as much coverage.
Just goes to show how important Rossi is to the sport.
Thought the actual GP was pretty good , though thought the 125s were much better.
Shame to see Hayden crash out, but good for Stoner's confidence that he finished a race finally!

Hasn't Rossi fractured his jaw? Heard this on the news yesterday.
Can't see Lorenzo giving it away TBH,hes won big championships before and surely realises he's now staring at one big open goal.Just checked the odds for the title on Betfair and their offering 30/100 on Lorenzo and 64/1 on Rossi,says it all really doesn't it ?.If the Doctor isn't going to be around for the next few rounds (still can't imagine MotoGP without him TBH) maybe Yamaha will give Spies a chance on the factory bike and maybe someone like Crutchlow a chance on the Tech 3 machine ?.Shame,as reckon we were looking at an awesome championship fight before this.Hopefully he's OK and back in action soon.
Just saw this - looks like it's Lorenzo's title to lose now then.
I know racers are crazy and he'll try to come back too soon (like pedrosa did last year), but I think he'll probably miss too many races to be able to catch up - unless Lorenzo struggles to deal with the pressure which he'll undoubtedly put on himself now!

Rossi broken his leg following high side in free practice this morning.Looks like he'll be out for a while :(

Yeah,it was really good.It was officially a corporate 'team building' exercise (yeah right !) and it wasn't even for my area !.There were 2 spare places and me and another lad managed to blag them (basically by kissing some serious butt !).Reckon Freeola should do one for you guys !.

Unfortunately not mate,where the new GP infield section veers left and joins Woodcote we had to turn right back onto the Hangar Straight.Still had a good feel for it and reckon its perfect for bikes as for F1 cars,reckon they'll be one at a time through it but it's not like they overtake anyway !.

If it's true that's awful.Still,just checked the free practice times from Mugello,doesn't seem to have slowed him down much !.

"Been to SIlverstone today and got to sample part of the new infield section.Drove it first in a Ferrari 360 Modena then a Lotus Exige.It has a very fast entry speed which leads into a pretty technical section which I reckon will be very busy for the Moto GP boys.Looking forward to the race reckon its going to be mega."

Don't get too excited Sonic, 25 points isn't going to be that hard to turn around :D

Lucky you! - Were you able to do a full lap of the new circuit ? If so what time did you get ? We can see how much faster a GP bike is!
Saw something today that some crazy guy has been making death threats against Rossi and his family and the police have found 'overwhelming' evidence for arrest/prosecution - not nice at all.
Bit of a desperate tactic from the other teams though!
