Doesn't bode well for the race - he'll start fast and fade

It was actually a pretty boring qualifying. Stoner did a quick lap with around 12 mins to go, Lorenzo beat it a minute or 2 later and that was it. Besides Lorenzo putting in a superquick lap in the dying seconds, nothing much happened.
Good work by Chuppa Chupp though. He really seems to have found the form he had at the start of the year.
Michelin qualifiers are back too. Let's see how their race tyres hold up.

Pretty good quali session. Lorenzo on pole with a new circuit record. Stoner in second place. Hayden rounds out the front row. Rossi and Pedrosa 4th and 5th.
Nicky had his final qualifying stint duffed up by West. He was getting big sideways but he came up on a huge pack of lap traffic. Too bad. I wanted to see what the pneumatic engine had this weekend.
Tomorrow could be really good.
Don't wanna jinx it though.

A few of these guys had great Q session and Crap race pace....so we could see a few being moving chicanes....
Lorenzo is going to win it!

Only partly true. His first attempt on a flying lap were aborted as you say, but he slowed down and conserved the tires and had a good second lap and as he said in the intreview the tires worked all the way to the end. So, what you saw is what the pnumatic got.
Rossi on the other hand, got his last lap ruined by the de angelis crash. You could see him fly by as they pulled out the bike and a + 0.2 in T1.

You post is also only partly true.
Hayden was barely off of pole before his tire fell apart in sector 4. He was .4 off as a result. He needed the rubber he scrubbed off running into the back of West.
I'm not saying West ruined his weekend, but I think he could have had a run at pole if he hadn't gotten in to the back of West. It would have been fun to see him stick it to Pedrosa.

I think that he sorta did although Pedrosa will wipe that advantage out in about the first 3 seconds of the race. He has an amazing launch. Must be cause he weighs about a buck ten, dripping wet. Shoud be one hell of a race (fingers crossed). Just give me one last lap battle this season, PLEASE.
