If you missed GP qualifying, Lorenzo got off the high side spectacularly.

That had to seem like an eternity in the air.  I would have reached for a rip cord at some point.  He broke both ankles and still finished fourth in the race, had to be carried and lifted on and off the bike.

I really thought Stoner and the Ducati's power would have run off with the race in China, but Rossi seems to be coming on strong.  I still think Pedrosa will win the championship with consistent podium finishes.

That didn't look like a normal highside to me. The bike was not even laid over very far when the tyre bit and threw him. I wonder if there was some sort of mechanical happening.
