I'll go with this top 3:
1. Pedrosa
2. Melandri
3. Capirossi
(4. Rossi)

For Hayden I predict a technical problem. He will finish outside the top 10 for sure.

It should be fun to watch Hayden ride with so much pressure on.There is no better time than the present to prove yourself and think he will run strong.Rossi is not going to do anything to hurt his chances at another title though.

agreed....hayden seems like the kind of guy who can step up when needed.  always comes off as calm and relaxed and ready to take it to whatever level is necessary.  but so does rossi.  that kid is magical.

hopefull this is one hell of a battle....one for which i will make sure i have a TV

They should enlarge those posters and put them on Dani's trailer next year.

If anybody is wondering what the fuss is about, it's on YouTube now:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIEUnSMebxw&NR
I keep watching it and getting pissed off.  I like the way Hayden pleads for help getting his bike back up and Pedrosa walks off holding his broken pinky. 

Sorry to keep ranting, but @$%@&&'in @#@#%

Pedrosa's mentor says it wasn't his fault.  What kind of #$%* is he smoking?  This kid's heading toward Biaggi territory and fast.

OK people, tune in to Speed at 12.30pm Pacific, 3.30pm Eastern. Should be an interesting last race of the year.

Go Rossi!!!!!!!! 

I'm looking forward to this race. Valentino is going to kick some ass. I'll end with a few quotes:

Valentino after the Quatar GP:
"All Honda's are bastards!"  ;D

Wayne Rainey on Rossi:
"To tell you the truth I think he's just playing with the other guys, he's got them beaten before they go out on the track. I think there are other riders out there with the ability to compete with him but every time they come out of their shells he just beats them back in again."

I admit that I'd like him to win today (probably already has/has not as I post this) but I hope he doesn't do anything daft.

Oh Dear. Rossi came a cropper. Went down like a sack o tatties. Haydon winning will please the US contingent anyway and a good race win for Troy Bayliss will probably keep Terry from Aus happy too.

Congats to Hayden I think the I hate Danni sentiment is now gone.Good race Im very surprised Rossi was the one to make a mistake given his position in the points.

I'm happy for Hayden, Bayliss showed his stuff again, and Rossi is human afterall.
