Casey Stoner dominated an relatively dull Spanish MotoGP, claiming an unchallenged victory over Jorge Lorenzo.

Ben Spies showed a return to form to take an unchallenged third position, and Dovizioso took fourth. Valentino Rossi had another solid outing on the Ducati to finish in fifth position

Marco Simoncelli was the surprise of the day; despite starting in pole position he only managed a sixth place finish. Simoncelli got off to a good start, but got swallowed up going into the first turn and seemed willing to concede a lot of places – eventually he got his rhythm back and made a strong pass on Nicky Hayden, but little else after that.
