wooooooooooooooooow some great racing today. Moto GP was great, shame Rossi didn't manage first but it was a fantastic race. AND after only his 6th race in formula one Lewis Hamiliton got his first pole and his first win in a race that pulled out 4 safety cars and a really big accident. Well done Lewis!!!!!!!!!

got to agree with you, really enjoyed gp and the f1. still cant believe the f1 crash, it looked awful, yet he got away with a broken leg, lucky or what. just amazing technology and construction that goes into these vehicles.

Unfortunately, I missed the bike racing, but saw the F1....great race, and hat's off to Hamilton for keeping his cool.
That crash was horrendous, bit of bad timing as my daughter walked in just as they were showing the replay. I watched her lip quiver coz her step mum was killed in a car accident 2 years ago, and she was convinced he was dead. Says a lot for the technology built into these F1 cars

I was watchin footage of some of Hissy`s wins, what a racer, a true legend and such a tragic loss. To die in a helicopter crash after diceing with the devil on the isle of man so madjesticly just seems wrong.

maybe a bit of luck and although the safety guys in F1 have gone stupid in some areas ..... like not letting them bloody race .... the cars themselves are so well built i don't know what sort of crash u would have to have for it to be fatal now adays.

Probably just as well, seeing as they are comparing Lewis Hamilton to Ayrton Senna

bradley smith putting in some really good rides this year, would like to see him continue onwards and upwards.
still think its a bit early to be comparing hamilton with senna, there is no denying he is a great racer, and for sure a future world champion, but senna was just something special. or maybe its just my biased opinion, as senna has always been a bit of a hero to me.

Too true, Senna was the ultimate driver. One of a kind.

True enough, they could all win races in the best car im sure but just a few stand out as the real cream of the crop, like mansell driving a race with a fractured spine !!!!
Damon seems like a top bloke, good racer too !
