Rossi will clear past the open class bikes within a few turns. Who are the faster ones? Petrucci? Barbera? They'll cut Rossi some slack. Then he's got to get past the Suzukis, who won't give him a free pass. Crutchlow probably won't give him a hard time, but he won't just step aside either. Hard to say which way the satellite Yamahas will go; Smith is a good kid, has respect, won't impede. Both Espargaros will race like they always do. Then it's the factory Ducatis and the Hondas.
I have little doubt that Rossi can finish 6th, and probably even 5th - by the end of the race, only Marquez, Pedrosa, Lorenzo, and Iannone won't be catchable. That list should include Dovi but something's gone wrong with him in the past few races
If either Pedrosa or Marquez wins, that's not enough. But a Honda 1-2 will give the championship to Rossi.
I predict Pedrosa to win the race. Marquez is capable of taking 2nd but he could let Lorenzo past, to give Rossi the ultimate .... you.
