Just had quick chat with JB in paddock. Rossi's shoulder is a big issue. He can only do three lap runs. He reckons there's only 30% strength



spies trashed a bike after only 4 laps

Usual suspects at the top.

Injured Rossi on the Edge of losing Alien status if the first half of 2011 is not good



looks like Injured Rossi is still quicker than haystack,

2011 he's riding shotgun for the old master then.he'll be out of the door

Dorna idea of safety is to put rolling Deathtraps on the track too.
 
I know its early days, but the thing above all else that strikes me is the fact that there are plenty of Hondas at the sharp end. That hasn't been true for quite a while now, half of the top 10 are HRC.

So Rossi's shoulder is a disaster, whats everyone elses explanation?
 
I read on Twitter that Ducati has 3 fairing configurations today; one with fins, one without and one cut away more for windy conditions. Perhaps it is that
