And Again: if West can be so bloody good in conditions that limits the power that can be utillised and be so much BETTER than the others - he has to be a good rider??

West does shine in the rain doesn't he Bill ? Same as the other young Aussie on the Suzuki ! But you would think he'd be closer to the front in the dry as well, if that good ?
Must be more to it than we know . Gaz.

ps Got your popcorn ready for Monday morn at 3am..?????

[k14]

Its 7am according to the motogp website. Although I don't know who to believe, last week I looked and it was 11am monday for the main race.

Think 125's start at 3.00am.

Think Westy only shines when its really bucketing it down as it was in FP2, you see the Eurosport coverage?

Sky coverage begins at 04:00.
No predictions this time?

Nah Gaz, but will have my DVD ready. Live Sky Sport 3 - 4.00am to 8am.

Would be a brave person to pick a winner there. If it's wet - then (maybe) West???

Hmmm interesting, have just watched the Qualifying session that took place in dry conditions. But the weather forecast for tomorrow is for a hurricane to hit big time, they are looking at moving the race forward and may well run the MotoGP race first, before the 125's and 250's, which may get cancelled if the weather hits as predicted.

Guys like West that stand out in the rain - have unique riding techniques. (they prepare very very early for the corner & are very very steady on the bike through the corner). - In the dry the fast guys are subtly shifting weight throughout the duration of any given corner & maximising front or rear grip (as required). Baylis is another guy that is very steady on the bike in the wet mid corner.

Rossi is very 'steady' then Dr.Glen !!! Jesus he's good.
That Yamaha has plenty of speed on the straight bits now. After a 3 hr wait in front of the box I got to see it ! Gaz.

Awesome, Greatest ever ?, debatable - but getting pretty darn close if not there already.
(Only to be beaten by someone else one-day of course)
