Very interesting but pedrobot got the fastestest in the last lap, should be a great race again!

Yeah he did, but there is no doubt that Casey was consistantly the fastest throughout the entire session. Still early days though, but I'm predicting a Stoner/Hopkins or Stoner/Melandri Quinella.

Man this guy has been around the block.

"The 40-year old made his 500GP debut in 1987 with Suzuki, and raced as a regular on the tour until 1996."

What's happened to CV?! He has suddenly fallen into a heap these past two weekends!

He said multiple bike problems in an interview...
 
Wow this CSCVAW guy is whack!

Trust me guys he isn't a true representative of the rest of us Australian's.

Anyway....Pedrosa looking very strong. If he carries this form into Sunday he will be hard to beat.
