    I guess they were pedantic wankers then...
    "...New Zealanders, for all their faults, have virtues that are precious: an unwillingness to be intimidated by the new, the formidable, or class systems; trust in situations where there would otherwise be none; compassion for the underdog; a sense of responsibility for people in difficulty; not undertaking to do something without seeing it through - "

    He had the chance to put in a time during the morning warm up but they reportedly had fuel pump problems with his bike and it didn't leave the shed. But I don't know if he chose to skip it and concentrate on the AMA race or he was excluded. Probably excluded because he didn't complete the final qualifying session.

    From what I saw on TV over the weekend the tires were one of his lesser concerns.
