exciting last 10 minutes. How many riders were trading fastest laps? Spies, Hayden, Bradl, Stoner & Crutchlow all going for it in treacherous conditions.

It was by far one of the most exciting qual sessions i've seen. But seeing Hayden and Bradl trade poles every minute I just knew not to get my hopes up. Hayden is many things, lucky is NOT one of them. Both Bradl and Hayden balked on last pole setting lap when time ran out. Franco Batini (or however you spell it) was a mobile chicane all event. Seriously, if you're gonna give a guy a one off event replacement, are there no good riders out there? Maybe not, maybe all the good riders are out actually racing in some series. Its doing Duc no favors to balk the fastest guy they the brand has who is putting it on the line to represent the marque. But then again, its not like they give a ..... Bradl, bad luck to come up on Pedrucci. If we are going to have two categories, can we send them out in waves? Today's bad luck loser, Bradl Hayden (Nicky crossing the line about 2-3 secs after the flag and after Franco parked his bike in front of him, ....). Stoner and Spies timed their last laps perfectly, and part of the good luck from the bad luck of two glitches: Stoner having his engine cut out mid lap and Spies lap timer going to sleep. Stoner's bad luck turned good luck by leaving the pit at the best possible time, so good for him. And Spies just going all out despite not knowing what his lap times were from his onboard timer. Oh, who really gives a .... where Pedro starts from, even if he quals from 4th row, he would get the hole shot.



Edit: (I'm camping this weekend. No reception, much less wifi. I hid the lighter fluid, then told wify I needed to go go buy some , and took the vehicle to nearest McDs Wifi so I could sneak in qual. I got the idea from Curve who did same .... yesterday. How sick are we? ....... addictions and afflictions.)

Ducati riders saying the bike is no good when leaned over...............Monty Python couldn't make this effort any more funny.

Really does look like Barbera is trying to get under Rossi's skin. The guy is definitely hoping to take Rossi's place. I don't think it's the Pramac is any better, Barbera is just riding with more balls at the moment.

Amazing last 10 mins of qualifying



Warm up times 1.22 so a dry track? it would seem. Not sure who that will favour. Pedrosa?- the only uninjured alien.

Yes I just got here... Rained all the way up, took a break long enough for me to pitch my tent.



Hopefully it clears up for Qualy. I'm on the lookout for Cliche and pocket rocket but I have no earthly idea how to find them.

Gutted the mobile internet couldn't get a strong enough signal for me to get the laptop fired up or we would have met.

That is one crazy place you have there. Top class, I loved every minute of it.

Maybe another time?
