Congratulations Valentino Rossi for winning Sepang Moto-GP.

Congratulations to Jorge Lorenzo on being 2010 Moto-GP Champion.

Congratulations to Toni Elias on being crowned as the first Moto-2 Champion.

Rossi WOW - from 11th to winner. Coincidentally, Pink Floyd is playing 'Shine on your CRAZY DIAMOND' on the tele. What a perfect analogy!!

Congrats to Lorenzo but, you'd never have even sniffed a championship if Rossi was healthy. I'm sorry to say that he's not much of a graceful winner. He wouldn't shake hands with Spies and only reluctantly did it with Rossi. I hope Spies kick his elitist European butt next year.

Glad I watched the 125cc race at Estorial, whatta race by Marc Marcus!
He was the last rider on the grid(17th) during the restart, 4th after the first corner, retook 2nd by 8th lap and 1st in the last lap(9). Whatta rider, I am gonna support him for the crown.

This kid is definitely gonna be a revelation.

This isn't obscene, dude.
Infact, this was shown live on tv worldwide.
IMO, This is the greatest portrayal of the emotional attachment between a man and his machine.

That's the GOAT's old machine. He has already started bonding with the new one.

Waiting to see it in its true colors. A photoshopped image of the Doctor. Looks cool.

Lorenzo takes the title but I will always wonder what if Rossi and Pedrosa had not suffered injuries.

But then again, racing is about going fast w/o crashing.
