Turned the TC off then eh.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Red R6 07 @ Sep 14 2008, 02:44 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>I agree completely, however when it comes to racing setup makes a massive difference, wet setup is completely different to a dry setup. So Spies will have had a head start with his previous track time. CV will only of had an hour and 30 mins to try and find a dry setup, then it's on to try and qualify. I'm not taking anything away from Spies, he did qualify well and has proven he is good enough to race in this class. I just don't think beating his team mates proves that he's any better than them as some people have been suggesting. Just my 2p worth
ON the flipside Chris has thousands more laps on the bike than Spies. He also has more experience in the rain. So who knows who the advantage goes to. I hope will make a believer out of the doubters.
I think they made a huge mistake not pushing the race up. They could be racing right now on a dry track as opposed to not racing at all. It is going to dump pretty soon. Of course its not fair to the 125 and 250 teams, but you do what you gotta do.
