    Gee, a rainy britsh GP. Go figure?

    Well, I gotta call this one the "Ducati/Stoner Combo has silenced the critics". Never woudl I ever have dreamed that the Ducati would do well in such a small track, or in the rain! Absolutely amazing.

    And what can I saw about Collin taking second? That was amazing, the guy really deserved first, but I'm sure he's happy with second. Just wish he could be a bit more consistant.

    Something was a bit strange in regards to the tire selections. It seemed that Stoner and the Suzukis where on some sort of intermediate tire, for they didn't do great at first, but once the standing water was pushed aside, they took off. I noticed that tward the end, Stoner wasn't even trying to hit any water to cool his tires down, but Edwards was searching all over. Rossi was defently on full wets, for his tires chunked by the last 5 laps.

    And the #1 props has got to go out for Anthony West. First time in a MotoGP race and on the Kawasaki. Crashed the bike in 7th place, remounted and still finished 11th. It's unexpected riders that are making this season really good to watch.

    Any if anyone hasn't seen the 250 race, don't concentrate too much on the current leader at any given time. Lets just say standing water and ultra light bikes don't go too well.
