man...Philip Island had some great action happening yesterday!....blown away by the end result of the 1st race in lieu of the beginning....and then the 2nd race was.....WOW!....this will be a very exciting season indeed...too bad we have to wait till April for the next round....hopefully Troy Corser isn't too sore today and I am glad that Barros changed his line to not plow all over him....was kinda refreshing to hear him a bit worried about him in the post race interview....

I think the reason race 2 was kinda slow was due to people seeing what happened to their tires in race 1 which apparently wasn't happening as fast or as severely as it was in qualifying practise!

Barros was impressive. So many riders trade leagues and are never competetive. Look at McCoy, Hodgson, etc. But Barros truly has a lot of experience and talent to take a non factory machine and place on the podium.

I am not a Honda fan, but Barros has been in MotoGP from way back and its nice to see someone change and still do ok.

What would Biaggi have done if given the same equipment that Barros has?

crashed and then whined about it....LOL...J/K.....he has done substantially well considering the advantages that the Ten Kate' Honda team has over him for a privateer on his own...I am betting the next race he has a sponsor though!...someone other than Mclaffee that is...

Smoothness is the key then. If Perelli tires are that sensitive then Corser is going to win ultimately because he is super smooth, most of the time. Uh, except when he highsided.
oh C'mon....he highsided very smoothly too....
