The last MotoGP at Donington was a nail-bitter to the finish but unfortunately not including the 2 Dainese stars on their Fiat Yamaha. Jorge Lorenzo took the control of the race in the early stages before crashing and pulling out. Valentino then took the lead ahead of a very strong Andrea Dovizioso on his Repsol Honda before making a small mistake and crashing towards the end. Vale manage to remount his bike and raced back to the front, passing James Tosseland in the last lap, finishing an excellent 5th considering his race.
First time winner Dovizioso took the top spot ahead of a very happy Collin Edwards and Frenchman Randy De Puniet on his Playboy LCR Honda.
Rossi achieved big by remounting and finishing 5th while title rivals Lorenzo, Pedrosa (9th) and Ducati's Stoner (14th) lost valuable points on the Doctor.
