Its Fiat Yamaha one-two in San Marino MotoGP

Valentino Rossi drove a prefect race t win his 3rd consecutive victories. His rival Stoner retired after the front wing was destroyed. Then Rossi took over the lead and drove a perfect race to win the san Marino GP in style. This was Rossi's first victory in hometown.

It started when Stoner took the pole position 7th time in succession. Rossi took P2. In the opening line of the race Rossi could not contain the Honda Repsol's Dani Pedrosa. He eventually over took the former.

It was in the lap 6 that the moment happened. Stoner slid and crashed into the gravel and made no room for his return to track this ensured the return to competiton was not possible. He was forced to retire. LAst season it was Rossi who was forced to retire due to mechanical breakdown and surrendered the race to Stoner who eventually won the title as well. It was vice versa this year.

Rossi is in a dominant form this season that lead to build up a lead of 75 points over stoner and his personal points in the season moved to 262. It seems the title contention is over as there are only 5 races remaining in this season. Rossi ended his 5 year c'ship title 2 years ago and now promises to start another era. Its down to 5 races for another feather in the cap for Valentino Rossi. Good luck Champ.
