Im really upset, I didnt get to watch the race, because of a "complicated technical difficulty" .......otherwise known as lightning.... :(

But I was told it was a really good race.....

I watched the whole thing and it was terrific. The 250's were brilliant too. I really feel for you T-K. don't you know of anyone who ahhem...documented events...Even though you know the result the races are well worth watching. I watched them again and was pleased as punch :box: because there was stuff I missed the first time round, it was like watching a really good filum! :roll:

Julian your no taking pleasure in T-K misfortune are you ?:shock: I must be misconstuing your emoticonism :? Wait just one minute you missed the race aswell! How diabolical is that! I am profuse in my commissorations! :cry:

The thunder only rolled in after the race.....and what a race it was....I really enjoyed it....One of the greatest thing about the season is that Rossi isnt dominating......a welcome change I feel....
I enjoyed watching Valentino "the perfect" Rossi make a mistake.....

Poor stoner......awww....maybe next time....

Oh Dani....where did it all go wrong... :cry:



I am now a firm believer that De Angelis made one of THE greatest saves of all time in the 250cc race.....I am gobsmacked as to how he held it together.... :shock: :shock: :shock:

That was pretty damned awesome however I am more than a little concerned as to how he got into that situation! :roll: It looked a little desperate or dare I say cavalier :shock:

Kamakazi :!:

It looked like the other two riders got a better run out of the corner, and he bumped into one, and it all went downhill from there....literally as well as figuratively....


Or kamakazi :lol:

Kamakazi as you say. But who was it that he collided with because he too had made a desperate lunge past two riders, he did seem to have a little bit more control, was that Dovizioso close and yet so far? It wasn't was it? It was Hector was it?... I'm not at home so I can't wack the tape in to check it out but I'm certainly gonna have a gander as soon as poss. :shock: Oh no is this gloating :shock: :? No no not this thread...... :lol:
