Estoril Practice and Qualifying

Nicky on pole and Pedrosa in 5th behind TAMADA!!! It just doesn't get any sweeter.

Let's just pray Pedrobot isn't angry enough to punt Nicky off again due to his poor qualifying run.

I hope Nicky can give it a real run at the front. That would make my season! I've missed seeing him challenging the leaders this season and if he could do it tomorrow that would be excellent.

I also hope he keeps showing that he's faster than Pedrosa. Thats what Repsol Honda needs at the moment, imo.

GO NICKY!!!!!

GO NICKY!!!!!


...the only part of your post that i agree with

1. Nicky Hayden USA Repsol Honda Team (M) 1min 36.301 secs
Well done!!

Dunlop shod Yamaha 4 and 8 respectively very impressive.

Bit disappointing to see some Factory riders way down the order

It looks like Nicky is a little behind on race pace.
Pedro and Rossi are the closest to Stoner and Nicky is about 5th or 6th best.
I'm hoping they all get bunched up at the start so it's not a runaway.
Nicky needs to get a good start. He seems to blow his front row advantage too much.

You don't want to see Nicky give it a run at the front? Sorry to hear that.

The punting off part was sarcastic, by the way. Everything else I meant!

Best MotoGP qualifying session of the season!

Agreed - it was a ripper session, but I thought the last qualifying @ Misano was also a beauty.
Great job by Nicky on both qualy runs

The start will be all important, but it looks like we are going to have one hell of a race.

Rossi, Casey, Nicky and Dani all in with a chance.

Ros...Casey is the best!!!....well to stop all you wingers on this forum... boring this boring that...I think he’s getting sick of being so dominant and wants a bit of competition!!!

No Nicky did a great job and took poll right on the last lap all he has to do is follow it up in the race...I wonder???

It will be a good race...Go Casey!!!

As a Hayden fan, I'm very happy for the pole position.

I thought you were a Rossi fan!!

It's Banzai mate, bonsai is a little tree!

Seriously though Jumkie, that's a very controlled post by you, 'cos I know you'll be 'chuffed to bits' to see your boy up there at the sharpe end. I guess holding back until after the race, eh! The thing is, Nicky has been up there in the races too of late, you never know, stranger things have happened. Remember last year?

Overall warm up times aren't important, but stint times are.
The fact that all stoner's laps were mid 1.37's and the fastest of all on the very last lap 1.37.4 would be worrying his rivals for sure.
