Yeah but 4th and 5th on a Sat bike against those cunts ain't too shabby.

Crutchlow says he has an offer, but won't say who from. Yet.

Oh, and the forecast for race day is rain - lots. Then again their forecasters are probably as accurate as ours.

Choice!! I actually hope it does rain as I love seeing the moaners who don't like racing in the rain get one up 'em.
Note that in FP1 V. Rossi's bike (not L. Rossi as he was fastest) was fastest through the speed trap and only 0.7 off the pace.
Maybe on a more flowing circuit in the rain Rossi might just do a wee bit better than Le Mans?

Stink, not so well in FP2.

.

Yeah. The fastest bike is so unfair eh. Not. Gotta use it too!

Pity Rossi is 1.5 sec off the pace when it's dry. Seems gay to pray for rain each week.

Exciting qualifying. Lots of people around 1. 41. 5 including Spies who looked like he could park it in the shrubbery at any moment. Hope it's dry.

maybe, but no gayer than praying for a dry race every week - they are all praying for factors that increase their chances.
whatever makes a closer race suits me just fine, dry races dont seem to offer than in moto GP lately.

nothing more boring that watching everyone circulate several seconds apart from each other.

I disagree, there is nothing better than an emphatic Yamaha win, courtesy of Jorge Lorenzo.

Loved the hd slowmo camera shots...especially the braking shots, pedrosa stuffed up so expect him to fly off the start and be up there ..good to see spies have a better run..still looks like stoner but can never go past Lorenzo on a track he knows so well....if the weather stays warm and dry I pick..Lorenzo, stoner, pedrosa

I have never regarded ANY MotoGP race as being boring.

Qualifying is fucking close this week...dry. If you subscribe to MotoGP.com...and have seen some of the vidoe highlights...you'd never again say Moto GP is boring. It's just that most people don't see that shit! They've done a slow speed montage of some of the top guys going through turn two. Unfuckingreal.

Rain should be made compulsery for at least 50% of the seasons races.
