Better late than never to comment on the Mugello results. For the second race in a row, a wet start and switch to dry bikes mixed up the favourites and put Dani Pedrosa on his butt ... again. Stoner managed to get the start, timing and tactics right and finished top of the heap. Lorenzo crashed on the warmup lap, but made the start and finished second (by a second) behind Casey. A disappointed Rossi ended his track winning streak, finishing another full second behind his teammate, taking the third step on the podium. Then it went Dovizioso, Capirossi and Edwards. Colin sure seems to like 6th place. Wet races are interesting and really add variety, but it's a bit of a shame, we couldn't have been treated to a warm dry race on such a spectacular track. No matter ... but what matters is that the championship points are "all shook up" again. Now we've got Stoner by 4 over Lorenzo, who's 5 over Rossi and Pedrosa has dropped well back.
