I wish Stoner and Jorge all the best after there off's. Jorge looked like he hit the deck hard, lets hope they are both in the race on Sunday.

According to the Fiat Yamaha team, Lorenzo has a separated right shoulder and a right-foot contusion.
"I was trying to push, but first I had some traffic and then the tires were cold and I wasn't in the right shape to try to improve my time," Lorenzo said.
"I'm disappointed for these two crashes but I am OK and I am optimistic that I will be able to ride tomorrow."
Said Rossi: "Firstly I want to say that I hope Lorenzo and Stoner are OK for the race tomorrow, because it should be a great battle between the three of us.
"We have had two practices today when we haven't been in perfect shape and we have struggled in some areas, especially in the last sector where we are still not strong enough. I was finding it quite hard to ride at the maximum there today and control the bike how I wanted, so we need to try to improve a bit more."
Colin Edwards and Nicky Hayden, the only Americans in the series, will start seventh and eighth, respectively.
just wait and see how warmup goes for stoner n lorenzo..if they can do warmup maybe they will race..

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (jazkat @ Jul 5 2009, 03:47 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>lorenzo seems ok in himself there a video of him commenting on motop.com... fracture in foot and dislocated collarbone but hes gonna see if he can ride in the warmup.
stoner seems fine and will race.
lorenzo isnt happy with the tyres he said they are dangerous.... both crashed with closed throttles.
I was expecting (not wanting) a fall like that from Stoner, but his highside seemed to be of the more traditional on power type.
Edit: and it turns out that was wrong, according to stoner he too were off the throttle when the rear let go.

Story on crash.net suggests Stoner has a torn groin, absolute poor .......!!
But...
"The tyre is quite hard on the right-hand side and needs a couple of laps to warm up properly. Unfortunately on the lap before the crash, in the most important corner for heating that side of the tyre up I was held up by two riders having a disagreement and then I got stuck behind one of them into the next right-hander too"
He does himself no favours does he.

It's really gettting out of control and becoming quite annoying with you people. Loreno said the same exact thing, there was traffic and I had no heat in the tire. WTF??

"I was trying to push but first I had some traffic and then the tyres were cold, and I wasn't in the right shape to try to improve my time,” explained Lorenzo, who has technically suffered a 'Acromial Clavicular Separation to the right side and a contusion to the right foot'.
“It's a pity for these two crashes because Jorge was riding very well today,” said crew chief Ramon Forcada. “The first one was with a brand new hard front tyre and the second was due to the fact that he made two laps quite slowly and the rear tyre was cold, so when he started riding fast he crashed.
