Edwards on Pole
. I wont be suprised if he drifts further and further back in the field come race day.
Come on NH, a podium would be great.

nice to see edwards and haystack back at the front, rossi squeaked out 1 fast lap to get second so thats not so bad, stoner in 5th was a bit of a surprise but second row is still a good place to be esp as he is quite good off the line.

pressure pressure pressure!
Tp70 can I get that tissue? oh wait... yamaha 1 and 2 for qualifying.. here you can have mine
Now back to conversation with regular people it looks like a interesting race we'll have to see how he does in the race I have my doubts seeing as he was towards the back most of the weekend should be a interesting race we can only hope it stays dry but I doubt it. A podium for Hayden would be interesting also what is different from normal is 4 Michelins at the top

Stoner was going to set 1'28.5xx in his last lap but what bad lucky in T4!!
He lost 0.6+ with that miss!
Damn it!! Damn it!! Damn it!!
Anyway, Stoner's pace is very strong for the race, as wet as dry. Let's see what happens, looks like another great battle.

I think it was his own fault. He looked back (WTF???!!!!) just before the corner!

Yeah, also I think Stoner is getting too much confident, in excess:
"I always knew I could overtake during the whole season, there hasn't been anyone that I can't overtake,(...)".

it's gonna be rossi, pedrosa, stoner & hopkins. the only 1s with 1:29 pace. look for edwards to head backwards. hayden possibly his 1st top 5 this season. this of course is subject to the weather. if its wet well things will be quite different.

Amateur hour..
Did Rossi fall this morning while waving to the crowed? That must have been embarrassing..
Congrats to Yamaha on the one-two pole. They put in a lot of work this morning, it seems..
It's just that stupid pole curse..

I doubt very much that he would have taken pole even without that front slide. He was on his second lap on the same qualifyers and he lost .6 in that section but not only because of the slide but mainly because the tires were done, and that again was what caused the slide.
Pedrosa did the same, and others started their second lap but gave up, including Rossi. I think Pedrose was the only one able to improve on the second lap, and also were way ahead after T2.

Then, look at this got from MotoGP Analysis by lap:
21th Stoner lap and Edwards:
Stoner: T1: 18.850
Edwards: T1: 18.586
Stoner: T2: 23.662 -> bigger gain
Edwards: T2: 24.094
Stoner: T3: 23.493
Edwards: T3: 23.214
Stoner: T4: 23.185 -> Problematic area, lap 20th here he scored 22.551
Edwards: T4: 22.637
Clearly Stoner was going to set the pole.

Not so sure, the Yamahas were clearly superior in the final sector and Stoner had about a tenth only to spare.

kwasaki (de punet) was fastest through T2 and T3 i think and stoner through T3 or 4 cant remember who else but i no the yams were not the fastest through any sector but they were over all.

Your logic fails in that he was riding with worn tires, he would never been able to follow up his speed in the first two sections. He was fast in T1 and T2, slower on T3 and, just like all the others doeing a second lap on their qualifiers, dead slow on the last section . Also, just like many others, he had read helemts for the two - tree first sections (Rossi still first), but non, including Stoner, could finish on those tires. The tires/riders obvioulsy worked best on the two last section of the first flying lap and the two first sections of the second lap. He had the advantage of a second lap for the two first section, getting used to the fantastic tires, and the disadvantage of a second lap as the tires turned ...... No bad luck, no if's it's just the way things worked out there today. He might have climbed a little, as Pedrosa did, but not take pole. Those tires were toast. Tomorrow they will show a fantastic ultimate lap, but no one was close to completing such a lap as the conditions worked against them.
<u>If </u>they had seen the analisys before going out they would have punished those tires from turn one, having them really warmed up for the flying lap.

I might be wrong as I didn't check them all but of the first five non were faster than Rossi on T4. (22.4)

i may be wrong as i cant remember who was fastest through T4 but i remember being surprised that not edwards or rossi were fastest through the sectors. but as i say i may be wrong as it was several <strike>beers</strike> hours ago.
