Whats wrong with Badovini? Did he get factory support?

[dburkland]

Looking like Checa might be able to escape with a couple of podiums this weekend

I think he is getting some kind of support from BMW but not full support.

Im was hoping for BMW to good at their Home round but it's not looking so good.

Checa annihilated the lap record by almost half a second to take pole.... on that old "privateer" duc

Man he gets along with that machine so well. Watching him ride it makes me want to go out for a spin.

Biaggi apparently got hit by a stone in his foot in QP1 and broke a bone. He may also have some nerve damage on that foot as well and is not even able to walk on it off the bike.

Biaggi is a little pussy, he and Pedrosa should never ride motorcycles again, the two of them are glass-houses.

Prediction; Checa does the double, Biaggi is a sore looser and the Yamaha boys swoop the podium.
