In spite of the red flag preventing him from cutting the gap in the standings from fellow Spaniard Jorge Lorenzo, Dani Pedrosa has won the Malaysian GP in dominating fashion, showing with its Honda RC231V a form and a consistency that earned him his third consecutive win, the fifth one out of the last six rounds and sixth overall in the ongoing season.
In light of the 23 points still separating him from Lorenzo with just two races to go, it looks like the diminutive Repsol Honda rider has found the right confidence a little too late in the season, but no hope is lost yet: with some luck and a little help from team-mate Casey Stoner, Pedrosa could still make it.
