Well - ups and downs really.
The crucial thing is the 'down' - Alvaro dropping out of a brilliant fighting race where he was easily going to be on the podium (I'd have said 2nd) when his bike failed on lap 6 of the Malaysian 250cc GP at Sepang.
The race saw plenty of other good scrapping though, and of course also saw J-Lo seal his title bid.
The upside was this...
...The splendid Toby Moody not only plugging us again on Eurosport (is it just my imagination or does he mention us more often than he mentions the Eurosport website???) but also apparently pimping the site to Alvaro himself! Stars, the both of them :)
Anyway, for completeness, here's the results in full...

ha, we both chose a pretty similar title for our blog entries. :D but there was no real other option, was it?
i really can't stop smiling about toby, that guy is so awesome (and i know i repeat myself...).
i'd have said bati was good for second place as well. altough when you consider the end chaos of the race, maybe even the win? ah well, better not think about it too much and just look forward to valencia.
fingers crossed for a good result there!
