Just watched the FP1 and Stoner was burning up the place.

Thanks.

Looks like Nicky is having a good day, perhaps he can shake the monkey this year?

Jesus, half a second over Lorenzo & Rossi is good going.

Spies continues to impress me. If he goes well, how long before Yamaha give Tech 3 a full factory bike for him.

Ben is going to be a force to reckon with- full factory ride next year?

Look people, Stoner will win this race - he rules Qatar.

After that IT BELONGS TO ROSSI.


Can't wait to see Ozzieboy and Wolfmans new Avatar at the end of the season...... :D

Does that mean McCoys bike didn't make the cut?? Bugger!

Go Stoner. Trophy heading back downunder:Flip:

Re Gazza Mc Coy, and the FB Corse outfit, they had a test at Valencia on March 10, attended by a Dorna rep, and former 500cc World Champ, Franco Uncini.

Mc Coy and the FB01 prototype were unable to circulate the track, within the required 3 seconds per lap off a typical 500GP race speed.

The bike was quoted as being reliable, but as it is at the start of it's development cycle...

The next thing for FB Corse, is get the bike to do a full race distance at race pace, in front of Dorna delegates, before it will be accepted onto the grid...

No time frame for this has been confirmed, and once again, it would seem that Gazza is in a perilous situation, IMHO!

:(

Considering the 4 so called 'Aliens' are all off contract this season, and if Ben does what I expect him to do this year, how could he not get a full factory ride next year. No doubt he's a smart man, sorry he is a smart man, bet he already has written into his contract that if he achieves certain results this season that Yamaha have to give him a full factory ride or else he walks. (Just hope not toward a big red S).

No surprises in the top 3....But De Puneit, and Capirossi in 4th and 5th is a surprise...

The Honda's are struggling a little, back on the 2nd & 3rd row...

Ben Spies...trying hard, but might of just found out that the pointy end of the grid in Moto GP, is a bit more hotly contested!

cant wait for the big race!

:rockon:
