Rossi was close behind Stoner through complete race, but never close enough to overtake Australian.

After Phillip Island, Valentino Rossi increased championship lead to 38 points, which puts him in great position with two races remaining. Casey Stoner returned to his winning ways, proving once again that his three-race break was good decision and that he will be the one of main favorites in remaining races.
