I'm not a Smith disciple, but I sure as hell enjoy the Ginge putting it to his knockers when he goes quick:

Still showing some good early on pace indicating a nice base set up. Providing they work to the same method as the other teams that is. Time will tell

And good on him. If he puts it on the box at home I'd be stoked for him. But I doubt he will. I'm going for 6th.

Ay, I think showers are forecast for race day. Jorge will drop his nuts if it rains, by many accounts.

I will back that and say 7th if dry. Dovi showed some awesomeness there last year and Yaknownee is on point currently. Wild battling will be Pol, Crutchlow and the Suzukis battling for 8 9 10 11 etc.

If it rains... Well its all down to who is craziest and gets away with it. MM and DP will push ahead and either crash or win it as they have nothing to lose.

Smiffy could get lucky..

& when was the last time a Pom won their home bike G.P. - in the big class?

Not for ~40 years, is it now? ( Other native English speakers have done so since, of course.. even a bloody Kiwi..)

There's an interview with Smith on the GP website in which he says he tries to go fast on the Friday because the factory teams will have got their act together by Saturday and it will be more difficult to shine. His Friday efforts are in an effort to get publicity so that his sponsors can feel they are getting something for their money.

He has a reputation for being good for sponsors, apparently that extends beyond just making himself available fo interviews.

Well, Smitty Q'd 6th, with a 2:01.740, ( but just behind his team mate)

Pole is M-M, 2:00.234;
2, George, 2:00.522;
3, Pedro, 2:00.716;
4, V.R.!!, 2:00.947..

See if I can't double it on the race result. Pay for the weekends beer intake.

My experience on the track has shown the ripple strips on the corners to be very uneven/bumpy.

Why then are the riders so frequently pushing their outside line on to the ripple strip? How can it be grippy?
