Andrea Dovizioso claimed his maiden MotoGP victory in British Grand Prix at a wet Donington Park in England on Sunday. The Honda rider held off a charging Colin Edwards and Randy de Puniet. Valentino Rossi didn't have a good day at all as he could only manage a fifth after falling while battling for the lead with Dovizioso. Rossi, however, did still extend his points lead as the main contenders for the title also suffered in the weather. Jorge Lorenzo crashed out, Dani Pedrosa had a really bad day with tire problems and Casey Stoner finished a lap down.
