practice

Very early days but 30 minutes in & the top 4 are runnung on Bridgestones. Although times are still very high at the moment.

Who's going to be topping FP1 I wonder?

With a bumper edition - 4 free practices!!

With Misano, venue for the forthcoming San Marino Grand Prix, returning to the MotoGP calendar for the first time since 1993 - and with a much-modified layout - there will be additional practice time for all three classes. An extra hour of Friday free practice will be given to the MotoGPriders...

Anyone else think it's pointless that Dunlop use qualifiers during free practice? I know that they are not restricted to the same rules as michelin and bridgestone, but I think it's a total waste of time to use qualifiers in a free practice. Ok it puts the bikes near the top of the timesheets...

Nice to be able to watch the racing at a normal time this weekend.

Stoner on top and with a speed advantage of around 10k's over non Ducati riders. The only guy to go close was Pedrosa clocking around 320 to Stoners 325. Rossi and Edwards were around the 312 mark. Hopkins looking racey!!

So who said Stoner would be no good. Shame on you Loris 2nd Hopkins 3rd Rossi 4th But Hayden in 12th OOOO that is going to hurt. Oh well at least he has another day to try harder.
