Moto GP Catalunya (The Rossi Show continues)

[JohnC]

This was only the second race I've been able to watch all season, and it was quite entertaining. Rossi did his usual "sit back and stalk the leader, then pass for the win and make it look easy". More interesting was the battle for 3rd - Nicky Hayden actually looked competitive, and didn't dump the bike despite running his tires down to the rims. And, did we ever find out exactly what happened to Tamada? They never showed the cause of his crash during the race coverage - they just said, "well, his tires gave up and he low-sided" - but I never saw the actual event, just the shot of him already on the asphalt sliding into the gravel trap...

Gerald - I'm gonna make it to a MotoGP race. Not this year, but eventually.
