Let's hope no one runs away at the front, but not another slugfest at the end either eh?.. here we go!
 
This is a strange year in that no one seems to want to grab the championship by the throat. I keep waiting for someone to emerge as favorite since Checa keeps tossing it down the road. Ducati will struggle mightily again this weekend, lets see if anyone can take charge and do a double.
 
First, i'll be keeping my eye on Benny. Second, i'll be keeping my eye on Leon. Third, i'll be keeping my eye on John.



This track does not produce close racing. I expect a snorefest of GP proportion for the lead.

Yeah, its been an interesting few races so far.. really hasn't taken shape at all yet has it.. that's a good thing though.. the more people that think they can win it, the more interesting the racing, for sure..

I dont remember any particularly good races here.. i remember Checa having some problems from the front a few years ago.. but someone usually runs away with it.. BMW's never been a real player for the lead here.. but doing a lot better this year.. cross your fingers for your boy
 
checa if he keeps it rubber side down,he's very good here and the ducati isn't the worst bike for this course

bmw starting to look real good now that they got 2 quality riders pushing each other + electronics don't seem to be so bad



prediction : checa melandri haslam for the podium in the races, sykes to be on pole but fades in the races if dry
 
Checa is pretty monsterous around this track. I remember in 2010 with the mighty Biaggi/Aprilia duo getting a great start but after the first lap or so Checa outbraking him from miles away after the long straight into the first corner showing brutal confidence. He broke down both races though.
 
Here's the schedule.

good for Smrz, and really impressed with Sykes this year.. wonder what was up when he was at Yamaha.. him and the Kawasaki this year are lookin great
 
checas riding rocks, beautiful slides everywhere, over both wheels in the chicane.awesome stuff , he thoroughly deserves the title this year,just like he did last year



why didn't he ride like this in gps?
<
anybody who says that is just the ducati is very wrong.



rea still impresses me, he needs to be on a better ride or move to gps asap



not sure if its the kawasaki or sykes, melandri seems to do just fine over a race distance and the bmw is known for eating its tyres. haslam nowhere in race 1



hopkins of course crashes, hope he makes it through the season without further injury ...it would be funny if it wasn't so sad and i wasn't a big fan of him
