Casey Stoner beats Valentino Rossi in the first Moto GP race this year at the Qatar Grand Prix.
Rossi’s Yamaha was equal to Stoner’s Ducati through the twisty section of the track, and it was there where he passed the Australian three times during the race, but was each time undone by his bike’s lack of straightline speed, which was 20kph slower than his rival’s.
