Australian's Casey Stoner &Chris Vermulan finished 1 & 2 in the US GP round 11, great race Casey pulled a nicelead & Chris was a little in front of 3rd (i forget who cME 3rd) plenty of action poor old John Hopkins & Nicky Hayden who has a coming togather on the 1st lap

Melandri 3rd, who is incidently the new team-mate of Stoner at Ducati next year. Unwanted by Ducati, Loris seems set for Suzuki it seems?
Don't forget Westo finished 7th too on his 3rd MotoGP race!

Regular North Americans surprisingly capitulated...
Roger-Lee Hayden 10th
Edwards 11th
Hopkins 15th
Hayden DNF
Kurtis Roberts DNF
Duhamel (Candian) DNF

And Vale 4th, now 44 points behind Stoner and the chance for the title is slipping still further away. That lucky rabbit needs to do something soon else Stoner will runaway with a well deserved World Title. See after the summer break. Yamaha are apparently getting a pneumatic actuated valve system ready for testing (Suzuki and Kawasaki already have this feature).
