FP2

After 10 minutes.

Has Haystack broken down, or crashed? He and Rainboy Boy have only complete one or two very slow laps.

The expected results at the top. Randy doing better than usual.
Dovi's change from Showa to Öhlins doesn't seem to make any changes to his usual positions.
Espargaró in 10th 2nd best Ducati, impressive.
 
Espargaro is very, very impressive. I'm actually extremely surprised by his performance at Indy and here, at Misano. Pramac Ducati should consider him for 2010...
 
Espargaro is surprising everybody. Hope he can keep it up.

Stoner's record is still very far (it was on a quali tyre though..)

Rossi seems to have found the setup quickly this time, and imho 2 tenths/lap is the credible difference between him and Lorenzo when all other things are equal

Rossi is racing in his backyard, he must assert his (supposed) superiority here. I believe in the rest of the races Rossi is going to be thinking in the championship securing points, but not tomorrow, at home, in front of all his fans, he MUST win.

We'll see if Lorenzo is quick enough and smart enough to exploit this situation.
