They will never go back to 500's because the technology is not relevant to what the manufacturers are building and selling on road bikes.

Yep exactly they would go back to 990's if anything. No one would buy a 500cc and Ducati have their 848 to go with the 800 MotoGP. I wouldn't buy a 500 two stoke no way.

Bautista and Simoncelli made SUCH a good race, I mean... it was absolutely fabulous, of course before the collision! And it was the engine, not Simoncelli`s fault

?!? However, great sportsmanship!!!
Beautiful race!

Thanks for the link, Ivi

Yep! I couldn't even blink during the race!

I know exactly what you mean, Lisa. First year watching without adds and it was torture the last two races already... I try not to drink too much but all the excitement makes me dehydrated so I am in a bit of a dilemma

I'm sure you'll get used to holding on for an entire race - I manage to do it!
During the 250 race my daughter suddenly piped up "I need a wee". No amount of denial and "think of something else" on my part was going to change the situation and I couldn't really send her off on her own so we had to make a manic dash - and while she was in there making herself comfortable I was standing outside, underneath the grandstand listening to the sudden roars from the crowd just confirming to me what I was missing:Simoncelli and Bautista overtaking. I think she got the message that the same little scenario would not be happening during the MotoGP! She is a clever girl!

Now that's what a call a good race, all three race's was brillant to watch, (125, 250, Moto Gp) even though i had to watch them while ill in bed, not allowed to get over excited or shout with excitment, how on earth did i manage not to do any of them i don't know, Perhaps i was to weak
