    Admittedly, Ellison does look like a fish out of water.

    Nearly all of the top 10 are out of contract at the end of this year. Rossi will have a lot of leverage, and is still the boss of the paddock, no matter who is beating him. He is Rossi!

    It must be raining this morning as rossi is currently 2nd in morning warm up lol.
    Think he will get on the podium if its a wet race and i dont see him throwing it away this year as he knows its his only chance

    Drying track with quite a few wet places, they were all out on wets, stoner did one lap and parked it, saving his wets apparently

    BBC are showing it on the HD channel. As long as the #%^*ing snooker doesn't take more than 10 minutes to finish.

    Its bad for rossi but even worse for spies as that bike IS competative. It shows how bad the ducatis are, with the exeption of spies ducati would have filled the bottom 4 places

    I know its already a done deal but i think bringing smith into the premier class is a big mistake. surely it should be scott reading getting the chance

    +1 on what Fez said. Scott rode a good race today, especially early on. Bradley I think will struggle this season, on current performance I just can't see him on a MOto GP bike and in all honesty, I don.t think he deserves the ride, as nice a lad as he seems.

    Stoner, what a gem of a racer he is. Cal, the guy did exceptional, nice to see a Brit who is really contending for top places.

    I agree, great ride by redding today, haven't Ducati got eyes on him and smith isn't ready for moto gp in my opinion, not really proven himself in moto 2 yet!
