I had it on beIN (620 on directv). Nice to watch it in full, with no commercials.

I used Navi-X and watched the live stream from the UK.

Dammit Checa! He took out Melandri when he was moving up. After that it was pretty much a lock.

Yeh. Looked like Melandri could have taken at least 3rd till Checa took him down. The s1000rr was beastly in the straights. The Aprilias was looking good everywhere tho.

Dunno but it seemed to me Checa was having problems from the start. Bad launch at the start and didn't seem tight to me. I'll re watch the video and see. I had to watch it on my tablet cause someone just had to watch a movie on the big TV

Checa was knocked out but apparently is fine



He didn't remember the accident at first but later remembered everything. Apparently he apologized to Melandri too

ya it was a bad tumble. like i said, it was really cool to see melandri run over and see if he was okay. i fully expected him to jump up, be pissed, and wave his hands around....

not that he shouldn't have been upset to get knocked out of the race...



but his reaction was really cool. and i'm really glad checa is alright (that is something i always worry about when riding with a group - getting ran into)
