Default Casey Stoner was rolling!

Casey looked to be back into form, watched the MotoGp race on speed this evening. I've missed seeing him battle with Rossi up front.

Stoner was the man to beat and nobody could beat him. Apparently the rest did him good.

No doubt Stoner was moving. However, I fully believe Rossi had something for him. He even said what I basically thought in his interview...he's in "championship mode". Not taking away anything from Stoner, as he would have possibly still won even if Rossi was willing to fight. I just think Rossi backed down from the fight on this one.

Agreed, with Lorenzo out, he just cruised and was content with second. Casey was sliding that Duc nicely though. That was some bad ass riding on his part.

This is probably true.

Stoner was smoking though so I'm not taking anything away from him BUT since that was his home track I expected him to rock it and he did.

Great race and like mentioned I had missed the good battles up front. Would have been awsome to see what would have happened if Lorenzo hadn't crashed.

that was def a wild race. Casey's ability to control that monster is nothing short of amazing. Im always left wondering if he could tame the cube
