Default Laguna Seca !!

Whoa !! Anyone else was awake watching the qualifiers ??

Interesting qualifier. Jorge and Stoner both crashed !!! But not before setting the pole and 3rd position respectively !! Rossi was going in and out of pits a lots of time, but just cudn't get that perfect setting right !! I think Rossi was struggling this session !!

But the big news is Stoner and Lorenzo both crashed ! Lorenzo twice in fact !! He has damaged both his left shoulder and right knee I guess, cudn't put any weight on that leg. Stoner was taken away in a stretcher !!

As the TVS ad says, to beat the best you need some divine intervention!! I just think Rossi just got his !! Because going by this session, he clearly wasn't the best !!

Anyways, lets hope all of them start the race tomorrow !!

Missed the qualifiers . Which channel was it coming? I switched on to Ten Sports at 2.30 (as given in the motogp schedule) but it was airing some live golf tournament.

It was a delayed telecast, the qualies were already over when they started showing it. At 3:30.

Even the race on Tensports is scheduled at 3:30 , even that will be a delayed one I think.
Try looking for the live race on some other channel.

J/ks apart, I meant that the match winds up early so that Ten Sports can show the race live and not delayed.

being an Indian you should be more influenced towards Hockey, why going after Cricket(the game from england). so rating the foreigners game, i like motogp more than cricket.
so when is the next race? anyone could tell me that. it was told that the race will be held 8 days after the previous race, couldnt find the race timing in todays newspaper.

heh heh heh .... in India, if a cricketer has a constipation, showing about that will take precedence over any other sport ! I guess we'll have to live with it !!
But then in India, cricket is the biggest sport no doubt about it, so it'll always have a dominant presence !! But then, every contry has a dominant sport, and perhaps in Spain and Italy, where bike racing is the most popular sport (yes, even more than soccer, bull fighting, F1 and tomato wrestling) !!
There might be say hockey fans, hu wud be having the same conversation as we !!

And on a brighter side, race is Live on Star Sports at 2:00, and perhaps if its good, we can watch it again on tensports @ 3:30 !!
