What a fantastic race! We saw, in the opening lap, Rossi just about leading with Stoner second and Pedrosa first.
Down the straight, Rossi was going 20km/h slower than stoner, and about the same for pedrosa, so Stoner took the lead, but Rossi managed to hold Pedrosa off. Back in 10th place was Hayden.
While there was only 3 crashes (in 2 laps; Capirossi, De Puniet and Checa, in that order) Jezza decided not to race and other Ilmore rider Andrew Pitt retired.
