WAY TO GO STONER!!!

[ethanleeqh]

stoner lead all the way from the start. no one has the answer

[daigo34]

stoner lead all the way from the start. no one has the answer

 

go stoner! he was awesome!even rossi cant get near him:cheeky:

[Refugee]

it was a boring motogp IMO...

 

that stoner just lead from start to end.

 

the only competition was 2nd and 3rd position....

 

the rest basically just 'hang on'....

[yenyenpark]

abit boring, since the result is almost there.. but watching the whole game still interesting.. bcos u will neber know what happen.. anything can happen until you touch down the finishing line.. Stoner did a wheelie.. (first time see him wheelie like that)

[ethanleeqh]

the previous one also, pedrosa keep running and running away. then rossi vs stoner

[Firevalve]

Its amazing how Rossi crashed on the first lap and remount to take 11th. His lap times are better than Pedrosa and what is surprising is the gear shifter is spoilt! The gear shifter is a L-shaped pedal and the foot rest portion snapped, leaving just a straight piece of metal to do the shifting. Its amazing how Rossi could ride without the pedal and hot lap times. If he hasn't crashed, he should overtake Casey....

[J73]

really?? missed the match on Sat ... is there a close-up shots of the gear shifter??

Rossi stops Stoner for first Laguna Seca victory

Sunday, 20 July 2008

 

World Championship leader Valentino Rossi put an end to Casey Stoner´s victory run with a win at the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix.

Valentino Rossi added Laguna Seca to his list of conquered tracks on the MotoGP calendar in a breathtaking Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix, ending Casey Stoner´s run of wins and garnering an important addition to his points tally heading into the summer break.

 

In contrast to his comments after Saturday´s qualifying session, Rossi needed neither a gun nor a 30-second headstart to stop the man so dominant in practice. Instead he relied on a storming start and his best pace of the weekend to stifle Stoner´s breakaway attempt, presenting himself as the only object between the Australian and a fifth consecutive victory.

 

A speedy start, some shaky moments and two riders separated from the rest of the field made for a thrilling race, and the end result of a 33rd victory for Rossi for the factory Yamaha team –equaling his total for previous manufacturer Honda.

 

The deciding moment of the race came on lap 24, as Stoner and Rossi prepared to enter the home straight. Having battled back-and-forth amongst themselves at every corner, Stoner ran wide onto the gravel. An attempt to dig his left foot in order to push himself back on-track led to a fall for the 22 year-old, although he nonetheless picked himself back up with a cushion on the timesheet significant enough to allow him to finish second and move up in the overall classification.

 

2007 Laguna Seca runner-up Chris Vermeulen rounded off the podium, using the same kind of pace that he had demonstrated in practice. Having started from eighth on the grid, a better result in qualifying could have seen the Rizla Suzuki rider at the very least take advantage of Stoner´s late fall.
