Qatar round 1 2010. RACE

Ben Spies 11th 1.56.271 - 22 laps

"It wasn't a good session really and I never got to use the advantage of the soft tyre. I didn't get it done and I never really put in a clean lap. But I am happy with the lap time we put in on race tyres. The positive is I did my fastest time on race tyres that had a lot of laps on them. The top four guys are obviously a little bit quicker on hard tyres. But the majority of the people that were quicker than me were on soft tyres, so we've just got to try to get a good start. I think the race pace I've got is still good, but I'm going to have a hard time passing people down this long straight. I'm right behind Colin on the grid and hopefully jump in behind him and go."

Think he's feeling the pressure... just a bit.
 
What was up with Stoner coming to a dead stop in the middle of the last turn?
Looked like he was challenging the guy behind to a drag race.

Looks like Spies "found a little something."

I think Spies is slightly nervous. He knows that every single guy on the grid is fast. he will get a top ten result..Don't worry.

I am happy Nicky went well in the warm up. He is improving.I just wish he would find a good setup quickly and then work on his pace. The last minute gettin it together won't last long and work well for the season..

Cheers for a good race..

That will happen at around the same time the pope stops making the world safer for pedophiles
 
Hayseed within a second is very good news, but lord knows what he'll do in the race. He sure makes is hard to be fully supportive!
