Dani Pedrosa took his first victory of the season at Sachsenring in an extremely high level race with team mate Casey Stoner, who were head above the rest field with a hammering rhythm that not even Jorge Lorenzo could keep up with them.
For the entire 30 lap, the two Repsol Honda riders lead the race, Dani Pedrosa got the holeshot but just a lap later Stoner passed the Spaniard almost ripping off the stickers from the #26 Honda. The two continued this way until the 18th lap when Pedrosa put in the decisive overtake and Stoner would follow him until the penultimate turn of the last lap and then disaster struck. The Australian trying to find a place to pass his team mate lost the front of his Honda and lowsided out of the contention.
Stoner’s first DNF not only handed a very distant Jorge Lorenzo a second place podium, but also the lead in the standings, with Pedrosa picking up the second spot just 14 points from the Yamaha rider.
