Jorge Lorenzo on pole position at the 2009 MotoGP race at Laguna Seca. In the background, Valentino Rossi and Casey Stoner. Dani Pedrosa won the race, having qualified fourth and thus not making it into this photograph. Rossi was second, Lorenzo third, Stoner fourth.

It seems strange now, but Pedrosa’s victory was the first win for Honda in over a year!
