ARGGGGGGGGGGGG

PEDROSA, THAT LITTLE ****. The race is going to have to finish the sam way it did last year, with Rossi in 3rd, but Hayden winning it, for Hayden to still walk away the champ.

Elias is a mad man though, where did he come from? He was like 15th or 16th in warm up!

it was a fantastic race... pedrosa taking out hayden was priceless but overall the rider with most victories deserves the title at the end of the day and Rossi has 5 + so many DNF's

Hayden's record of winning races is not very good, hes great at Laguna his home race and the other race he won the Dutch TT Edwards handed that to him. On top of all that Pedrosa gonna have to help him and i can't see it coming together for hayden unless Rossi goes out of the race.

Heres a vid of the race if anyone has not seen it yet

why rossi deserves the title:

notice how edwards actually HELPED rossi, trying to slow the rest of the pack. it's called teamwork. notice how pedrosa "helped" hayden, yeah, some teamwork there. not rippin' on hayden, but the only reason he's that far up is due to a very consistent podium, however very few WINS. he's steady for sure, but not great. rossi is, especially when he doesn't blow his motor, a damn fine racer. i can't wait to see who ends up on top.

and yeah, elias, wow, that man can slide a bike.

Well, I'm a huggggeee Nicky Hayden fan so I'm always going to be biased. But I have to give credit to Valentino, that guy is a freakin beast.

I think Nicky can pull it out. But of course I'm going to think that! Should be a great battle.

If Nicky is gonna be world champion, this is gonna be the best chance he will ever get.

this race can not come soon enough!

I can't believe what puig said about hayden. Watch the video, you can clearly see the pedrosa getting out of shape way before the corner.
