Was that one of the best races ever or what? A cracker I thought. As Daryl and Woods said on the Ch10 telecast, why would they want to change the formula now that the 990cc are delivering racing like this?

True enough, there's been a couple of great races this year, I'll be sad to see the 990's go.

That was a HUGE high side at about 180 km/h, lucky he walked away from that

Yep definately one of the best races I have seen in this class for a long time, hopefully the rest of the season follows the same theme :dance:

I only have the free to air footage to go off, which wasn't a real good angle, but to me it looked like he did not high side. The footage shown on news and during race shows STONER sliding along the ground a long way from the bike when it did its acrobatics. I'd say he layed it down and the bit which made it look like a high side was when the bike hit the curb and flipped up. Still lucky to walk away though.

From what i saw it must have been a high-side because Stoner was launched what seemed like about 3 metres in the air - at least as high as the bike. I was amazed when he walked away...
