Valentino Rossi was fourth, with Casey Stoner fifth following his crash in qualifying yesterday. Randy de Puniet continued his impressive form after returning from a broken leg in sixth spot.
Ben Spies, Loris Capirossi, Aleix Espargaro and Hector Barbera completed the top 10. Nicky Hayden's struggles continued as he was only 12th, after qualifying 14th yesterday.
