In the seven rounds of the MotoGP season completed this year, Honda’s Valentino Rossi has now won six of them. At Assen earlier today, Rossi held off the two-stroke challenge of Alex Barros (Honda) on a track that, at least in significant part, favored the two-strokes over the four-strokes. Finishing third was the four-stroke of Carlos Checa (Yamaha).
Rossi, of course, has a huge points lead in the championship going into Round 8. Take a look at the official MotoGP site for further details.
