That was an exciting ending! The battle for 4th was crazy between Crutchlow/Rossi/Bautista! THAT's battling!

Marquez couldn't be touched once he got past Jorge. Damn kid is now an extraterrestrial.

Hayden and Dovi touched and both went over the curb, which allowed Smith to stay on line and beat them both.

Great end to and last laps of the race! :thumbup: :thumbup:

I thought the whole race was pretty exciting, but yeah, that last lap got crazy! :thumbup:

I don't know exactly why, but since Ducati decided they didn't want Hayden next year, I just love seeing him go the extra mile to beat Dovi. Not nice of me I know, but what can I say? I like Nicky.

I was expecting the dukes of hazard air horns to be blowing when they 'caught air'

Best race this season so far, love watching Marquez, lots of bottle and lots of heart.

Fox sports commentary was brutal. Lead change and nothing mentioned? However last lap exchange between Hayden and Dovizioso ....which cost both of them a place I might add.....gets the commentators all a buzz. Fox was obviously concerned about appealing to the masses in order to gather interest the sport....I was just waiting for them to explain to me how many tires a motorcycle has and why they have those round things on the rider's knees.

One more advert for the "Dumbest Stuff on Two Wheels" or "R U Faster Than a Redneck" and I was going to go crazy (ier).

Not sure if anyone saw the Moto2 race.....honestly thought that was the best of the 3 races televised that day and the commentary was pretty darn good.

Finally got to watching it. Another great one for sure!

Very impressed with Rossi's 4th, coming from 9th!
