Marquez has the "tyre cooler" fitted to his Honda.

FP2 currently on.

[FourWheelDrift]

With FP3 looking like it might be wet, FP2 has been vital to make a time for the top 10 to get into Q2.

Drama....both factory Ducatis outside the top 10.

Wow that was a mixed free practice !

both works ducati's out the top 10 and forecast tomorrow is wet and windy

morbidelli , quattaro and bagnia all in top 10 !

[FourWheelDrift]

Delays, cancellations.

It's not just Silverstone with the bad track surface and terrible weather.

Totally agree, it was bad last year and all they have managed to do is grind more of the track away and make it worse.

Thinking the same, could you honestly back against him though ?

Nope especially with his history at this track , however at some point he's got a big accident coming , you can't keep being lucky forever.

It's not luck though. Happens too often for it to be chance. He know's what he's doing.

As knackered as that track looks it makes for fantastic racing. Great to see Lowes on the front row again, fingers crossed for the race. Marquez looks invincible, but Rossi vs Cal will be interesting, Zarco still deeply unimpressive....lucky they offloaded Bradders for better results eh

Be interesting what changes they made to his bike last night because it didn't look stable , i think he just totally believes that he can just out ride anything the bike throws at him .

When he's had his big accident it'll be interesting to see how he bounces back , but in the meantime he's a great spectacle to watch.

Usual terrible warble of the US national anthem thankfully drowned out at the end by the USAF.

[stevemcs]

They were Migs

So whos going to get second ?

[FourWheelDrift]

I think Rossi will hold on to it, unless Marquez crashes.

Before I posted the above Marquez crashed !

[FourWheelDrift]

Come on Jack!

Only when he fell off the second time, trying to restart it
