Simply unstoppable

I found myself sitting watching MotoGP once again on Sunday morning anticipating a red hot race between the world champion and poleman Pedrosa. After a lightening start from the Spaniard I thought, ‘great stuff now at least Rossi needs to work for it.’ However once again Rossi made the most sensational things he does on a motorcycle look so easy it makes me speechless every time.

After stalking Pedrosa for the first stint in the race Rossi pulled off an outrageous out braking manoeuvre on Pedrosa that seemed even too late for Rossi. Once again he made the apex and convincingly pulled away from the Repsol Honda rider. If there is one thing I will give Casey Stoner is that he has the fight in him to make it hard for Rossi but Pedrosa seems to have everything in abundance but this battling element to him. At Laguna Seca Pedrosa would not have lasted a lap in that Scrap between the Italian and Australian and we are yet to see a fairing bashing performance from Pedrosa.

Then again Pedrosa summed it up in a post race interview with the BBC in saying Rossi seems to find that extra something in the race that lets him have the last say. After that display in Sepang I think it's fair to say he was simply unstoppable this weekend.
