MotoGP Argentina

[FourWheelDrift]

Free practice sessions currently on.

I wonder if we are going to hear our national Anthem in Argentina. Would be fun if the Witch-President has to present the trophy

Yamaha's look to be struggling, Rossi and Lorenzo left it late and both the Tech 3 boys have to do Q1.

Open class soft tyres quite advantageous here as Laverty showed by splitting ESP and SMI

Oh dear Pol.

I don't like him

[FourWheelDrift]

I think Brad was out on old tyres then came in, put a new one in and did the lap. Planed I think, Pol was probably doing the same thing but after almost crashing twice pushed too hard and over rode it.

Serious mix of bikes.

1st row Honda - Suzuki - Ducati
2nd row Honda - Yamaha - Ducati
3rd row Ducati - Yamaha - Suzuki
4th row Yamaha - Honda - Ducati

... I can't remember the Spaniard who won a 125cc ( IIRC, it may have been 250s) championship, by never winning a race that season. Rabat? I think its just his name that causes the dislike, I've never been able to fathom out why either.

He's Marc Marquez's manager, Emilio "Chupa-Chups" Alzamora.

Marquez has broken a finger in a motocross crash, doubtful for Jerez.

I suppose Crutchlow might get some more factory bits, Redding too if both Repsol riders go missing.

I met toesland tuesday and he thinks marquez/rossi are going to start costing each other points whilst dovi constantly scores 3rd's race after race.

Who does he think will be finishing 1st and 2nd?
