1327 - We had some connection
problems there which stopped us for a while but the 250 race just
ended with Dani Pedrosa taking the win from Porto on the line and
with it the young Spaniard now has enough points to be crowned 250cc
World Champion with two rounds still remaining in this 2005 season
1305 - 13 laps to run and it is Porto and Pedrosa fighting over
the lead out in front. The duo have 3.3 seconds on third placed
Jorge Lorenzo
1254 - Stoner enters pit lane. Porto leading the way now
from Pedrosa and Lorenzo.
1251 - Stoner went down after MG Hairpin, he is back on the bike
and will be very sore after being hit by another rider and running
in 24th place some 26 seconds behind new race leader Jorge Lorenzo
1250 - Stoner leads by 7-tenths after 3 laps while De Angelis
and Lorenzo battle hard over 2nd place which is helping Stoner's
cause
