Seems like a wasted session for Rossi. If the conditions this afternoon are similar, tomorrow could be interesting (podium positions, not the actual race).

Youre dealing with a .... that shouts out the first piece of ..... that enters his head here mate. Best just to ignore it, it may get bored and go and annoy another forum.

Pedrobot & Stoner have both had offs in practice.
Question is will one of them do it in this race?
Stoner looks to be really pushing it past the limit.
Anyone else this Stoner is due for a crash during a race?
Or does he have it on a string atm?

when will honda and yam do something to close this gap, rossi was pushing so hard rear end started to slide out.
tires. bridstone sucks
rossi will insist on dual compunds next year. he will want use of Bridgestones and Michelins. you heard it here first
Good to see lorenzo back on it. Tony elias is belatedly showing signs of coming to grips with the ducati.
Valentino and jb still have time to come up with something extra between now and the warm-up. However I guess it is also possible that casey was not giving it the full works as he was down to his last bike.

even if he writes off another bike, i'm sure he could take both of marcos if it came down to that. not that anyone would miss marco.

You have to see him to miss him

i dont care if stoner wins tomorow or anyone else i just dont want to watch another line of bikes following eachother around the track.

Do you think dorna will admit their error and change the formula?. They will just about have to if the races continue to be processional, whoever the winners may be. I am looking forward to seeing how ezy spins it.
rearding our irish friend, marc O'melandri.
2 seconds behind stoner. 0.9 behind the top d'antin ducati.
for god's sake get him off that bike! if not for marlboro ducati's benefit, then for his!!

We saw the same tendency last year. Specially the last turn as a steep uphill following. Power rules, and stoner know how to get it to the ground.
