The leathers for Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo each feature the faces of 500 fans that first sent their picture within a dedicated event.
Lorenzo would go on to win the race wheelieing down the front straightaway and taking the checkered flag almost 4-seconds ahead of Stoner. Nick Hayden would be the first American in fifth, followed by Spies and Edwards. Roger Lee Hayden would finish just ahead of Alex De Angelis in 11th position 21.275 seconds behind the race winner
“I make a good start but suddenly they overtake me quick on the outside,” said Lorenzo. “I tried to retake as soon as possible but Dani was braking so hard. I knew if I kept pushing like him he maybe would make a mistake.”
