    MotoGP Tests

    http://www.crash.net/motorsport/moto..._saturday.html

    Looking a little different to last year's tests.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    It's OK to disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Excluding qualifier tyre laps, Valentino and the Yamahas are looking pretty good early. Still, results from the 'official' test have historically not matched up very well with the following season's results.
    Sleep is for the weak.

    Yep and for the first 30 mins of the session no one could get within 3 seconds of his lap. He went out and put down 3 or 4 fast laps at the start of the session and no one else could get within a stones throw of it.

    I liked it when he let rossi past him and then put the hammer down and was 3 seconds ahead after 1 lap. Rossi wasn't just coasting either.

    From Cycle News.Com "Nicky Hayden (Repsol Honda) was on top by the finish, after earlier almost day-long leader Casey Stoner (Marlboro Ducati) had stopped running after falling without injury." So there!

    When is that guy goin to lose his rubber bones and get brittle ones like us??

    Stoner has reestablished his dominance. What the heck is it with Stoner and his Ducati? No-one else can ride it/set it up anywhere close to Stoner. Every other team-mate returns absymal times. Melandri, Elias and Capirex last season.

    Hayden is looking nice on the Honda. I hope he can keep Pedrosa out of the top three fight. Rossi is really going to need some magic this season. Should be an absolute cracker!
