The FIM needs to increase the fuel allotment for the factory class. Rossi said the bike has no power and something about these new tires is taking away the M1's traditional advantage in the corners.

I did like seeing Espagaro, Bautista and Smith up front. Even Dovi did much better than usual. You like seeing this kind of spread but when the factory bikes have fallen so far so quickly, you wonder if the new regulations are excessive.

Wow, that was one of the best MotoGP races I've seen in a long time. Sucks for Lorenzo, but glad to see Rossi on form. A lot of fight left in that old dog.

I'm not a huge Lorenzo fan but yeah, it was unexpected. It was Bradl's crash that really disappointed me.

I'm also curious to see what happened with Crutchlow's bike at the end. They had something like 24 liters of fuel when they went to the Open class but then Honda complained and I think they're at 22 liters now. That might have made all the difference.

Since they program tc,abs, and anti wheelie for every inch of track,I guess transponder failure is a huge deal.
