It took place on the weekend of 23–25 October 2009 at the Sepang International Circuit. In wet conditions the race was dominated by Casey Stoner in a return to form following a mystery illness which ended his hopes of regaining the world championship title.[4] Valentino Rossi finished third, which clinched the 2009 MotoGP championship for him.[5]
