That was quite amazing.

I almost expected him to try to carry the momentum on the outside and overtake on the straight but did not see that coming on the inside. :wow

The back to back slaps in the last 2 laps leading up to final turn kept millions on the edge of the their seats.

Plus rep!

I recall Rossi saying while over taking Jorge he knew he was at his limit & hoped that if he crashed he took Jorge with him.:lol
