Hi All,

On the a 'Yamaha Track'...Bridgestone are bringing in harder tyres for this event, so that should make give a fright to the Ducati fans....since the big red machine cant benefit from the harder tyres this track may require....

I am going with the following prediction...

1) JLo
2) Rossi
3) MM
4) CC
5) Smith
 
whoa whoa whoa - i haven't watched free practice yet - but caught the results in my facebook feed.

IS THIS REAL LIFE? :hot:

Are these your prediction for the race win or for qualifying?

For the race win mine would be:
1.) MM
2.) Dovi
3.) Rossi
4.) JLo
5.) Ianno
 
For the race mine is:

1. Rossi
2. MM
3. Dovi
4. JLo
5. Iannone

*current ideas without even watching any practice*
 
P.S. Crutchlow will crash out, and suzuki will run into reliability problems (not sure what they've done to increase there horse power, but it seems significant).

It has not been possible to use all the power so far at Rio Hondo it seems, the track surface didnt allow it. That, and the soft tire, can explain Suzukis exploit (their handling is excellent and Aleix is very good on single fast laps). As more rubber is put down, and it becomes possible to use more bhps, expect Honda, Yamaha and Ducati to improve. For the race it will all depend on the tires and there Suzuki and Ducati may miss the hardest choice. I expect another MM93 win, with the Yamahas in tow.
 
It's very nice to see ducatis and suzukis fighting whith the usual yamaha-honda crew.

2015 would have been a very interesting championship whithout Marc....

Honestly - I haven't been following the details about tire allocation. I understand why Ducati - having been allowed various advantages - not being allowed the extra hard tire, but can't follow the logic of the all the other open class bikes being refused that option as they all are already at such a disadvantage as compared to the factory bike.
 
Pol got everything wrong...I guess he won't have to worry about Scott being near him in the race...
Well done Bradley...
 
Yes quite a dissappointment for Pol. Though Redding will never substain for the race. Plus should be interesting start with Smith next to Redding and Rossi in front. Great qualifying session nevertheless
 
Hmmm.... it seems to me that when Rossi looked over his shoulder he changed his trajectory a bit, surprising Marquez .
 
The Mother ....... Doctor son!!!!lol

First time in two years it feels like there's a fight for the championship.
Amazing to see how good the Suzuki is doing the first time back
in MGP. And three 2nd places by Dovi.
 
Great job by Dovi and Cal...

Dovi 3 - Cal 0 ;)

Congrats to Miller for being TOP Open bike and RS Honda!

How long before JLo starts looking for a new ride for 2016?
Clearly JLo is imploding his own title chances to the real number 1 Yamaha rider
