It’s back this weekend. Looks like it’s going to throw a few curve balls.

Weather looks mixed with on and off rain forecast, so could be a mixed up grid

At the end of FP2 Marquez at the top, but Dovi and Lorenzo well off the pace in 15th and 16th with Dovi being over 3seconds behind Marquez after whatever changes he made from FP1 clearly not working out. Rossi in 7th. Crutchlow in 2nd and an amazing 4th from Rabat.

Chances are this is how it’s going to stay with FP3 looking likely to be wet, so unlikely anyone will improve on their times.

My forecast for the podium.

Marquez
Vinales
Lorenzo

Well that was fantastic, the qualifying is better than some of the races. Wet race tomorrow could prove interesting.

Dovi did well to turn it round. Lorenzo might be on a VDS next year!

I'm surprised there is enough room on the duke for Jack and his balls.

Apart from Marquez that can never be counted out of a race he starts, your forecast stinks.
What is it with you and Lorenzo? Purely an anti-Rossi thing?
