Valencia prediction

Hayden looks good this weekend - didn't think I'd predict him for a win again on a honda but -
1 Hayden
2 Pedrosa
3 Stoner
 
1 - stoner
2 - pedrosa
3 - hayden
4 - rossi

quite sure stoner will win, i think there is a fair chance of pedrosa rossi or hayden crashing out, with exception of rossi battling throug field will be boring race upfront, pedrosa takes early lead the stoner gets passed and disapears, hayden will fade away from pedrosa as he wastes his tyres as rossi battles into 4th but too far behind to catch hayden!

It sure will depend a lot on the starting speed of the three in the front row and how fast Rossi slice through the field. But I agree with your prediction except it might become a battle for third between Rossi and Hayden. We could of course hope for another gravel trip by pedrosa though. He's under pressure, home track and a bad season, he deperatly want to repeat last year dominant win.

Pedro - Team Kawasaki 2010 with Marco.

The team motto.

Guarding the rear (against Puig)
 
I think it is looking good for pedrosa. Unlike nicky at PI his tyres are likely to last making it hard for rossi to catch him from well back and for stoner to take it easy for the last 10 or so laps as he did at PI. I would love to see nicky add a GP win to his tally but tyre and/or fuel limitations may again hamper him.
 
heart, strength of will and sheer bloodymindedness will get you a long way but you need the right tools to complete the job.
IMO repsol wont let "the one that got away" finish in front of their homeboy/dwarf hero. how they do that is anybodys guess but thats what i expect to see. a tyre with a few psi missing would probably do it!

good luck nicky, the odds are stacked against you..
