Sunday’s race wasn’t the most exciting thing ever. The rookie Jorge lorenzo started on pole, with Pedrosa and Rossi qualifying 2nd and 3rd respectively. Those three pretty much controlled the pace of the race. Lorenzo and Rossi were in the lead for most of the race. By the 13th lap, Rossi was clearly having some equipment issues and dropped back to third position where he finished the race. About that same time Lorenzo started to open up a gap at the front of the race, which widened with every lap until the checkered flag. Hayden crashed out. Stoner barely finished in the top 10. The next race is in China on May 4th. Hopefully it will be a little more eventful.
