Southern Aridzona - Hell's doorstep.
20 minutes into FP1, and Bridgestone riders own the top 8 positions - EXCEPT for a certain possibly-soon-to-be-unemployed Texan, who is somehow in P2.

The Eurosport guys are really bashing Peddles and Rasputin.
Randy just called Puig 'stupid' for bashing Haystack on MotoGP.com, and Dani is 'dishonorable' for ditching Michelin. They give the impression that the Two Dorks are rapidly wearing out their welcome in the pits. Anyone up for a good old-fashioned Tarring and Feathering?

Somone made a prediction on that thread...how funny is that.

Colin Elias the contractual obligation tornado...

Actually I like Colin so I feel a little bad for dishing on him.
 
seems that colin needs a single race rolling contract as well as elias...

could be the way to go in the future...

Amazing what a little pep talk will do isnt it.
 
Go Rossi!

Dovisioso needs his usual 5th (two spots up) to hammer Repsol's Hondas, would be nice! Another slap in the face taken by Repsol's baby Puig.

I think Nakano is testing the 2009 spec. If he can ride it to 4th, it's probably going to be a pretty good bike.
