Does anyone here watch MotoGP? It's the top category of Grand Prix motorcycle racing (the two below it are called Moto2 and Moto3).

I don't normally watch it, and my knowledge of it is mostly confined to what people on F1 forums have been bringing up in F1 discussions, but I did watch a little bit today when I was waiting for something else to come on. The race didn't start while I was watching, so I only saw a bit of the build-up, but that did feature this huge crash by Casey Stoner:



He suffered from torn ligaments and a fractured ankle, but amazingly, he decided to take part in the race anyway. Because he was behind in the championship, he had to in order to remain a serious title contender (in what will be his last season - he's retiring at the end of the year), but even so, the fact that he raced with that sort of injury must make him either incredibly brave or absolutely insane - maybe even both :P . He finished fourth in the end, which he saw as a 'disappointing' result (his title rivals finished ahead of him), but I think it's really good under the circumstances!

Video taken down. But anyway, I've watched this stuff (or something like it) before. I find it more entertaining than F1 or Indy.

New video:



Let's hope this one stays up, so that re-posts of this video don't become our next meme.
