    • Not really sure. The Ten10 Racing Facebook page says that:

      "Sarath still recovering from a shoulder Injury will miss Catalunya and British GP."

      So thats that I guess.

      • Looks like those laps done by rossi on the 1198 SP dint pay off!He is still not familiar with Silverstone!But something tells me that he will surprise us all and will finish 5th or 6th tomorrow!Sic hasnt been having the best of luck lately!Stoner was on fire!Beating the previous track record by 1.2sec!
        Well as for me,am still with the Doctor!Go Vale Go!!!!!!!!!

        • Surely it was the most interesting qualifying session, but extremely disappointed seeing rossi on 13th.
          2 of my most favorite riders are 13th and 14th.
          Rossi and Elias
          Poor Elias, he has the worst HONDA on the grid.
          He deserves a better machine.

          something is surely wrong with rossi's bike, or maybe he is keeping something hidden for the race, Abraham did a great run on a duc though.

            Lead Duc this time is@ 6th by K Ab. Someone needs to ride that duc hard to put it under top 5..
            poor Carl Cructhlow.. He was so exxcited for the british GP.. Truly unfortunte
            Man, Lorenzo would have had his self gone low, Sic coming 2nd and his record being smashed by 1.2 seconds!!

            Go Stoner Go.. Go Sic go..

                • it was a wet warm up. Rande P crashed hard. He hit the front brake hard. The rear lifted and he was down before the corner entry. Rossi set his fast lap and next lap he crashed. Lorenzo was looking good. Stoner and Sic was a bit off control, wobbling too much in S curve. Sic ran straight on a corner on his initial laps.

                            12 4 14 Randy DE PUNIET Pramac Racing Team 139.5 1 Lap

                            Some thoughts about the race:

                            The weather conditions were definitely one of the key elements of excitement for this race. Just looking at all those water was enough to tell we had some real competition at hand.

                            In the Moto2, Stefan Bradl did what he did best. Cautious, Calm and Controlled racing made him the clear winner although Redding looked really good in the initial laps, but a tad too cautious at the latter stages.

                            MotoGP was way better than the last race, in fact compensated for the last boring race. Great start by the first two rows. After a few laps, Lorenzo and Doviozo fights were really interesting.

                            Unfortunately, both the Factory Yamahas and SuperSic crashed. The latter could have waited and sealed a podium finish easy but pushed a bit too much.

                            Valentino Rossi and Nicky Hayden did well to stay put. Added bonus for them when 3 riders up front crashed.

                            Overall, a good race. Casey Stoner gets 3 consecutive race wins for the Repsol Honda (last time it was VR back in 2003). Lorenzo is now 18 points behind Stoner in the world championship standings and Pedrosa moves down to 5th after VR.

                                So the facebook page of Ten10 Racing stating he has an injury is just a cover up?
