    MotoGP Estoril

    Weather started out rough with delays to FP1 and a few not going out.
    FP2 wet to start but then cleared, finishing up with Fiat Yamahas and Ducatis in the top four. Horhay,Hayden,Rossi,Stoner, in that order. G.

    I was out for the night and had copied the qualifying, but this morning was greeted with cancellation.
    FP2 times are it, by the looks.
    We have been lucky with Estoril, can be a wet and windy place. G

    I think the grid positions are allocated according to the combined practice times.

    Pedrosa will be a bit pissed off, on row 4 IIR. If it's wet they should all have some sort of settings. Like Rossi said though, if it's fine setup will be like tossing a coin since they haven't had any dry practice.

    Maybe they should have wet practice at every round? I really enjoyed both Moto2 and MotoGP. Really shook things up. Gutted for Simoncelli and good to see JLo really stuff it to Rossi... including trying to run his foot over

    Carbon, your English pals doing the commentary give me a headache !
    Rossi admitted he couldn't match Horhays pace,(gritting his teeth).
    I wonder what 'Rolling Stoner" will have to say ?

    You'd never go hungry with Nigella Gaz.
    If it weren't for flashbacks...I'd have no memory at all..

    I really like Moody, Ryder and Spalding on Eurosport. Don't rate the Beeb.

    Has Stoner taken his helmet off yet?

    Yer he spaced out big time but he is the best so he can , and Rossi started the game crap at the end of a race so i guess its now a habit aye.

    As for the Thur rides i dont have a road bike anymore so i cant , my loss i guess.

    That little Repsol guy in 125 has a lot of heart, been following him all year.
    He's out by 17 points now, barring a major balls up, he should be champion.

    When Stoner takes his hat off it'll be, "WE" didn't have it right, but "WE'RE still trying. G.

    I can't wait till Maquez gets his leg over a MotoGP bike..................

    He just has sooooo much promise, eh.

    Surely mangers are talking to him now about his future direction?
    It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Yup Marquez is my favourite rider in the GPs! Lorenzo was when he was in the 125s and 250s but he has turned into a cock with his after race shit
