Yeah - this is how I've been wanting JT to race ( not limping around in depression like the last handful of outings )..I never expected him to be up there with the factory boys, with a podium being the result of his good riding and luck were it to happen.
But this kind of gutsy riding is how he should be - and is capable of....shame Nakano just pipped him, as it would have been his best result. Almost saw Rossi off ( literally ).

Great result for JT. Also good to see that the customer Yamaha appears to be as good as the factory one.
makes JT's prospects for next year better.

de punted took himself off as the replay from Rossi's bike showed.
Great race from Dovi as well. on the grass at the start and still finishes 7th.

you should have seen some of the camera shots from the 250s. It made that one look like long distance

I laughed my head off when Pedrosa came off. Do Honda really want to pin their future hopes on him?
