    here it is for those that missed it.
    and for those who caught it on TV.. worth watching again.

    Keeping in mind Hayden did something similar, albeit less lurid, on
    the same corner in the race... about a half-dozen laps from the end.

    That's why I spend so much time with learner motorcyclists - they
    don't show up my pathetic motorcycle-handling skills the way racers
    do.

    Well, not quite so often.

    Bloody brilliant - sheer tenacity.

    I seem to recall Doohan doing similar with judicious use of the knee.
    From memory, was a left-hander.

    I think there was an earlier left-hander in the wet (P'raps that really wet
    Suzuka race) where he planed along on his knee for a while and saved it.
    The PI one was a classic display of sheer will though!

    after doing PI the other week, all I can say about turn one is sheer
    fucking terror...
