[Ducati] motogp spoiler

[Steve Abramson]

It sure was a great result, despite not seeing Rossi and Hayden get it on. 
Did the race start out storybook, or not...??? (At least for us Nicky fans). 
Pedrosa let Nicky by, Rossi was enough places down, in like 7th, that the 
points would go to Hayden. Those of us watching thought Rossi looked a bit 
strugglish, and that may have had something to do with his fall. It was an 
uncharacteristic crash for Rossi.
