1. Stoner

2.Lorenzo

3.Perdrosa



In no particular order and as long as none of them go down. How about that for a prediction.





Maybe I will go maybe not, that seems to be how I roll. Its only 2 1/2 hour drive. But no one wants to come with me. What a bunch of lames.

Pedro basically guarantees at least a second place here... It's one of his like 3 tracks hes just amazing at.

I guess its easy to predict the top 3 as it rarely changes.

Dani p

Stoner

Lorenzo

I think Ben is gonna get his head down and put up a result this Sunday. My guess is 3-4 seconds off the podium in a nice battle between he and the tech3 boys. Hayden will follow that group with bradl and Rossi fighting it out for 8th.

Anyone watching practice know if Barbera was trying to catch a tow from Hayden when this happened? I think he was behind Hayden when he crashed?

He was behind hayden, but he wasn't catching a tow. There was 4 guys together, and to me it didn't look like they were pushing that hard.

i want spies or nicky to be on the podium, i think the repsols will do another 1-2

stoner is still quite able to win the championship, cant say the same for dani, even if it would be a nice surprise in the end, i guess

Yea hate the hear that for Hector, the timing of all this really stinks as well. Anyone know or heard rumors on his 2013 plans?

been listening to the spanish commentators talking about just that. Hector was a bit bummed he wasn't considered much for factory ride, considering the bike he has been on and his results. He is now looking to stay with the satellite ducati team, whatever they are.

Hector has small cracks, fissures on those vertebrae, Spanish TV saying it's not as bad as the tv news feed makes out. Hector wanted to return to the track but race doc decided against it for him.



Spanish media talks a quite a bit about fast recoveries and how they all always push the limits of recovery. Guess Hector broke the record for coming back from the compound leg break, and broke his neck in return. dumb ...
