MotoGP round 14 - Motorland Aragon (Spoilers!)

Well FP1 is done and it looks like they're still getting familiar with the airbox/twinspar aluminum bastardchild on Rossi's bike because he's currently in 8th... what's worse is that Hayden is faster in 7th with the carbon framed GP11.1... and even worse is that Depuniet is in 6th on an original GP11!

It's only FP1 Matt, I wouldn't be reading too much into it yet. We'll have a better idea of what the race result "might" look like by qualifying.

FP2 cancelled, power out at the track, gensets coming tonight, extended FP3 for MotoGP and Moto2.

What the Hell happened to Spies?!?

Sorry. I have given up on the Ducs but am still pulling for the other boys from the US. It is just too depressing when I see how any duc riders are doing in the standings. Whaaaaaah!

I agree it sucks that Hayden is behind a sat GP11.....but I dont expect the new alumibon/carluminim (TM ) chassis of Rossi's to put him up front in it's first race. Hopefully it is close to the front for the last 2 races this season.

New lap record by Stoner! Half a second faster than his previous record set last year on the Ducati!
Casey has fantastic pace this weekend consistently lapping in the low 1.49's. Anyone catch the slow-mo of him drifting through turn 17? Unbelievable!

It is still OK to be a Stoner fan around here isn't it?

I'm not saying a thing about Rossi.

lame............... 13th................. 1.5 seconds from the front..............

[agip_beta]

Rossi

Hayden on 3rd row is OK.
