The first leg of the Moto Gp World Championships took place in Qatar today. The race was a close run thing, with Valentino Rosso starting on pole position, having lapped fastest in qualifying. However, he was overtaken on the straight in front of the stadium of the first lap by Stoner (who rides for the Ducati Marlboro Team, not Rizla). Stoner obviously had the faster bike, able to outpace Valentino on the straights, with Valentino catching up and occasionally overtake on the corners. The faster bike won out, though, with Stoner coming first and Valentino second.
