Other than Rossi running Dovi down late in the race for 3rd...and then fending off Dovi's counter attack, that was a wicked boring race week-end. :/

Further evidence of how much more exciting the Moto2 class is than MotoGP. It's sad to admit...but...it's true.

Truth!

I like how the commentators tried make it interesting and especially how hard they worked to make Roger Hayden look good. "Roger managed to finish in 11th place!!! " ummm...there were only 12 finishers... Heck, I could have finished in the points on my gf's gsxr 600...

In all fairness he went from the slowest bike in the sbk paddock to a very limited ride on a bike that's in the upper 8/10s of the gp paddock...on a not so easy track. Prob just didn't want to bin it. I think his moto2 ride at indy will be more telling. At least he has time to prepare for that one

Yep on the couch watching it in HD on the 55''...

I totally skipped the race at Daytona this year and watched it when I got home.

I had to settle for 46" HD and some good chicken wings.

I watched it start to finish in high res on my MotoGP.com subscription. I don't know how you guys can bear to watch the commercial filled disaster that is MotoGP coverage on Speed.

HD DVR isn't going to rid you of being abused by the idiots Speed runs out as announcers. Absolutely clueless those guys....
