what?

with an axe maybe? LOL

This round was bloody awesome, the 250's were a cracker from turn one, lap one to the very last lap, then the big bike were out and we had moto gp boys racing like the 125's race, except no one punted anyone off the track, will put it onto the computer tomorrow and make me a DVD, should erase that bloody Nick Harris' commentary but

Yep that was real racing.

all 3 races were fantastic.

best weekend of gp's for as long as i can remember

Agreed. I do not think I have ever seen better bike racing.

That 250 crash and recovery on the last lap was just crazy. Man these guys are commited. It is hard to imagine even what it would be like to race at that level.

Bring on the next round!
