OK, A bit too soon to get excited I know - but look where Hayden is.

If that's not a one off Bill, maybe,just maybe, Rossi has something? It's not likely Hayden will finish in front.
It's been a long wait.
At least we know Stoner isn't foxing he can't/doesn't do that.

I can see your eyes going all watery Gaz, fingers crossed aye !

Looking at the time spread, lapped bikes should become a factor 2/3rd way through the race - which usually isnt a regualar occurance at this level and may add another dimension ?

Lot of cloud around i see, but likelyhood of rain less than 20%

YEAH!!!!....and we all know how good stoner is with "other" people being on "his" track.......not knocking him.....great rider an all.....just he seems to be one of the more intolerant riders......so looking forward to helmet smashing at the end and lots of finger gestures.....maybe thats what CRT really means....Can't Ride Together.....

Good to see Nicky towards the pointy end. Hopefully he can maintain that through the rest of the weekend.

am loving all the bikes out in MotoGP. CRT's included. They look horn (apart from Edwards Suter - that one was hit with the ugly stick) and all are well within the 107%. We are getting back towards the "good ol' days" when production RG's and TZ's got to mix with the factory boys - except the gap these days is not as big as back then.
Also I am loving some of the new colour schemes. The more black in the Gresini and Tech 3 teams in particular. I also love the look of the FTR Kwaka's of Hernandez and Silva.

Gonna be a GREAT season this year.

+ 1 to that, - along with more rule changes for 2013 looming.

The amount of bikes on the grids for 2010/11 had to be dealt with........

A young man to watch:

Fenati - haven't seen mention of his first name yet, but I'm sure we will.

It was David Emmett I think who said Fenati was "The real deal". He is current Italian and European 125 champ and has joined Moto3 right at the sharp end; currently second fastest after FP3.

I hope Spies can get his shit in one sock this year, cause if he don't Mr Crutchlow might pull this factory ride out from under him!

I'm lovin the music those M1's are making this year too!!!

[James Deuce]

Those CRT Aprilias are going to have to be careful, looking at those times. Dorna will label them factory bikes.

Think Dovi has his eyes on that seat!

They can't be factory bikes as you can buy one. You can't buy a factory bike.
