Got up early, the qualifying of Motogp is on now .... bonus

Congrats to Brads in the 125cc, heard his interview, nice guy needs his balls to drop to lower the voice or eat some gravel

Really good to watch, though didn't catch it all. Impressed with Lorenzo after his flight yesterday, but can't imagine how he'll manage race distance.

Very impressed with the Michelin Q Colin used - mighty lap.

Lorenzo didn't look in full control today .... big balls though ... but they must be a bit squashed after today bucking bronco high side catch and stay on

"My first and second qualifying runs weren't that bad. On the third tyre I went into turn one with my eyes closed and it stuck. I had a good time at the first split and just managed to hold it for the rest of the lap."

There's talk of heavy rain for tomorrows, a real test and a chance for the likes of Dovi on his second string Honda to bag some valuable points.

Lorenzo was incredible IMHO.

It's a poor do when the might of HRC cant get the gearing right for Dani down the straight. Spoilt what would have been a great fight for the victory.
Still real edge of the seat stuff , managed to take a breath by lap 5.

Should be a cracking season with so many contenders in the mix.

I didn't see anything wrong with his gearing?

Nothing wrong with Pedrosa's gearing. They leaned of the power for Fuel consumption towards the end (mamola commented on the note of the engine) but Mr Rossi had it in the bag already. Power leaned of or not, Ped didnt stand a chance in the last 5 laps!!

Dani was in danger of blowing his spring valved engine , as his teem didn't take into account the tail wind that was present all day.

Many of the riders overshot turn one during the race, because they were still using yesterdays brake markers.....Not good when you are travelling at 10 Ks faster
