Bad Move

Pedrosa's moment of madness sabotages team-mate Hayden's world title hopes...

Young Dani really screws up
Going into the race Nicky had 12 point lead, but having been crashed out by his teamate, and with Tony Elias barely beating Rossi, Nicky is down 8 points. The only redemption would be for Nicky to win the next, last, race and Dani to take second, therby allowing Nicky to win the championship.

Loosing on the track is racing, being knocked down by your junior teamate is ... astonishing.
