MotoGP 2011: QATAR

hmmn interesting, why is pedro sandbagging today?

Lorenzo not as fast as i expected, Rossi making progress as i expected, will struggle with shoulder throughout the wkend i think especially later stages of race. i am not writing him off for 2011 championship because he is VALENTO ROSSI and he does things that should not be possible and i think he has not even started developing that bike yet.



Barbera WTF?



what were the track condition like today-anyone know?
I think it was windy again but not sure, I saw that on twitter a couple of hours ago, and maybe Pedro doesn't want to egg on Stoner to go any faster lol. Stoner has got to be feeling pretty damn good at the moment.
 
top 5 for my guys on sunday for sure! i expect a step forward from nicky and rossi might actually podium!

You might be right, you can pretty much add a few positions to where ever Rossi qualifies on race day.
 
ha ha Boners & Boppers happy

Haydenettes, unhappy.

just read rossi only done 2 or 3 laps in the 1;56, so im less excited now, ile be surprised if its not a race between Pedro stoner up front then Yamaha 3,4, then from 5th to 10th will come down to who wants it most.

i think pedro has more in the tank for race day wheras i dont think Stoner ever holds back, dont right off dani yet guys for the win



hope spies beats lorenzo
 
how many of these riders are showing there hand?



how do they compare to last season?



me thinks stoner has atleast half a second saved for quali
 
Stoner qualified last year on the Duc with a 1:55.007"



IF the Honda is that much better I'd say a 1:54 should be seen.

I was thinking the same thing in last weeks test, but the wind and sandy track prevented it from happening
 
Great session by Stoner and Rossi. Can't complain so far as I did not expect the Rossi to do that well on the piece of ..... Next session will probably see a big improvement by the Yamahas though, unsure if the Duc's would be able to do the same.
 
Barbara Use poor Nicky as a sling shot. Though you gotta give him credit for keeping up with Nicky. Hope Haystack will improve tomorrow.



The heck you talking about keeping up? Even Uccio can keep up with Nicky. But yeah, nice lap by Barbara.



Rossi is still 0.741s behind the leader..... in racing that is an eternity. AND if you want to do a 'Talpa Calculation', then that rounds off to 1 second.
 
Hey supershinya, I guess Rossi didn't break any bones that session, what happened to Aoyama? Hayden and uccio were too quick for him?
