Jerez observations

Just thought I'd throw in a few interesting observations from the Jerez 500 race (I'm a bit slow and have only just finished watching it).

Firstly, Rossi was having fun playing with Abe. You could see him backing off, running wide and doing all sorts of things not to go past.

Abe did have a good ride though. Criville looked more like the Criville of old in the last handful of laps. Though it would have been nice if he'd been like that the rest of the race, so far this year and even all of last year.

Nakano. I said this last year, in fact I said it two years ago...Nakano will go far. He showed it again today.

Haga. Was he in the race? Only saw him when Capirossi dropped back.

Biaggi. Hmmm....no comment.

That's all. If anyone wants to add anything, go right ahead

Yes, I think it was wise of Rossi too..saving his tires till the last few laps of the race. Just reminded me of how Mick Doohan plays it.

I have a feeling Nakano will go far too. He just needs time to get used to the 500cc bike..
