Very entertaining 'feel out' session. Possibly better than what the race may offer.

Rossi, Pedro, and Elias, all low-sided. Elias twice...
Stoner had an slomo' high side on his 'out lap' which was quite entertaining. The kid really does crash gracefully. He's a pro'.

All in all the riders were finding their feet on the same track with different bikes. Other than Lorenzo... who is just cold hearted consistent That f*cker really shits me.

Sic' was just instantly fast. Let's hope he can bring his speed, without the undoing of other riders and himself, come race day. He's due a podium.

I just got home from work and watched the FP1 highlights. I 'lol'ed as it showed people crashing for two minutes. Glad everyone is ok though.

+1. Could have ended a lot worse for all who binned it.

Hayden has the most podiums of his career at this circuit. Here's hoping for a good finish and maybe a fight for a win? wishful thinking I know. He did not get the new bike for this round either. But only .382 off the pace.

It'd be great for Hayden to get a podium, maybe his brothers finishing 1st and 3rd last weekend in AMA has lit a fire under his butt.
