    Was Ped crashing Sic fault?

    I think it not!
    Its rediculous he got a penalty.
    2nd to 7th is ridiculous!

    Every time the poor chap does well some thing happens.
    The other race when he was 1st and crashed out.

    Think hes getting a little too big for his boots?
    Future Rossi?

    His penalty was ridiculous!

    EDIT: Then back up to 5th. Well raced.

    You couldn't really tell what happened from the camera angle. They should've waited and checked the bike computer to see if Pedrosa let it run on or not. If he was braking hard the it was Simo's fault as he left Pedrosa with no exit.

    Ah so you get a penalty for causing a collsion now? Must have changed the rules after Rossi brought down Stoner!

    If Simoncelli can get it stopped and turned, when taking the outside line, then Pedrosa should've been able to do the same. Tough but fair methinks... :

    I couldn't believe he got a ride through! But as 3 riders put in complaints about him, they felt they had to do something. Rossi's right - GP riders ARE turning into pussies!

    If you watch this clip Pedrosa stands the bike up halfway through the corner. He obviously panicked. If he'd have carried the same line he'd have missed the hairy one. This isn't the last we'll hear of this.
