Whos your picks for the weekends racing then?

Me, I think Mr Hayden has a good chance of being number 1.........its anti-clockwise........and I'm sure there is going to be one helluva dark line round the quad apex

Thats said............can he conserve his tyres enough?......oh, and theres that bloke Rossi to beat too

Hayden
Rossi
Melandri

Verm = 8

Should be fun........brand new track

Well none of the bikes/teams should have the data for this one !we are all aware that rossi can do it on any given day, and he has already won the title,and you have these other riders on a charge for runner up spot,Hayden, Melandri on equal point's and colin sniffing too !i think we will have a similar senario to PI,and it will be the tyre choice again !

will go for ?

1 Melandri
2 Hayden or Rossi ?
3 or 4 Gibbers

9 Vermeulan
Hope thats not a curse on Nicky cos really,any of the 2 Honda's will do for me[nicky or melandri] ?ah well there you have it !

Rossi Hayden Melandri, Top ten for Verm.

I have a bad feeling that either hayden or melandri's shot at second place will be resolved with oine of them crashing out in one of the last two rounds - because that would be the worst case scenario for a good battle gone bad.

knocks on wood

I sincerely hope neither do and they have as good a battle in both remaining rounds as they had at the Oz GP, exchanging position multiple times.

Rossi is always there so you can't count him out, Melandri is riding superb but putting all bias aside I think Hayden will go very well in Turkey. Eight lefts and only six rights, goes counter clockwise, it sounds like a place any dirt tracker turned road racer dreams of. I pick Nicky Hayden to take his second career victory this weekend at Istanbul.

If Nicky has the tyre then theres no reason why he shouldn`t be up there.

Level playing field Ron, Bridgestone might have something for the Michelin boys.

Melandri has .4 seconds over Gibernau in second and 1.2 seconds over third place Hayden. This may be his weekend. Anyone have any notes on who has a fast race pace? Marbles?
