Good Morning

Just finished watching the MotoGP race from Catalunya, Spain.

Started out amazing, very exciting!

Unfortunate for Espargaro, Simoncelli, and Dovizioso who crashed out.....espcially for Dovi who was having a great battle with Lorenzo.....Lorenzo with the faster pace, and Dovi trying to keep up.
Stoner did well to keep up to Pedrosa especially after running wide on a corner and going down to 5th. Also commentators speaking lots about arm pump issues with Stoner.
Pedrosa fought hard to gain his spot, and blocked Stoner off well.
DePuniet a big surprise this season, did a great race!
Bautista a surprise at this race, 5th spot, best this season and probably for Suzuki as well? (can't recall correct if wrong)
Spies had a great race, good to see him constantly so far in the top ten.
Hayden didn't finish as well as he'd probably want, but better finish than his pole position.
Poor Edwards having more troubles, I guess they can't the bike set up for him, I do know he had been more than vocal in regards to all the new rules ie: engine allotment etc....
With this race apparently tires played a big role, as the race this season is a month later than last, creating a different track surface, in which most if not all rider's were having trouble with grip.

The podium and the rest:

Lorenzo
Pedrosa
Stoner

De Puniet
Bautista
Spies
Capirossi
Hayden
Melandri
Barbera
Edwards
Kalio
Akiyoshi
dovizioso
Yoshikawa

Highlight: commentators bringing up next years teams (rumors still)
Yamaha boss says yes to more money to Lorenzo, but Rossi would have to take a pay cut, which may motivate Rossi to go to Ducati. Stoner to Honda on a new team to be created.
They said more to be announced for sure beginning in the next few races.

have a great day, it's nice out! Ride safe!
