Valentino Rossi wins 9th title in Sepang

[MotoGPNews]

Race at Sepang was first chance for Valentino Rossi to claim 9th title in his career, which he took in a dramatic race which saw him making error in first corner and dropping to 8th position. After race-long recovery ride, Rossi managed to reach last podium step, which he inherited after fellow Italian Dovizioso crashed from that position. Third place was enough for Rossi to claim 9th MotoGP title in his career. Unlike Rossi, Casey Stoner had no problems at all and rode brilliant, error-free race, winning with 15 second advantage. Second rider in wet Sepang race was Dani Pedrosa, who finally managed to score decent result in wet race.
