    • 125 FP3 over....Zarco, Vaquez, Cortese, from what I understand...its kinda mixed dry/wet conditions at the track...

      Desperately want it to be dry....want to know where the doctor really stands in comparison to stoner...

      Now the amazing yamaha Livery and a doubt..

      What is that round thing in middle?? (just above the Yamalube logo)...it appears to be rotating....generally bikes have clutch on that side...but it can't be a wet clutch(needs a closed housing) and if it is a dry clutch...how is it going to work in rain..?, is it magneto? (difficult to keep that open as well)..
      Help me out guys....have seen this a no. of times already..

      Latest update: 7 min into the FP3 and stoner goes down, infact all 3 repsol honda riders crashed(independently)

      • first 2 laps.. Stoner crashed, comesout unhurt.. next dov crashed, badly hurt, goes back in stretcher. then same lap number 7 goes down, goes back limping.. A bad bad day for HRC.

        Monster yamaha team has got the handicap symbol (wheelchair) on their bikes(both)

        update:
        Stoner back on track, Aoyama in clinica mobile hospital!

          • i have a feeling Sic will top the timing sheets today too.

            Rossi looks like he'll repeat yesterday's performance again.

              Something really wrong with HRC(or maybe whichever team stoner goes to)
              Dani injured,Dovi and Aoyama now...

              HRC had 3 gud riders , two of 'em injured..(Is stoner trying to develop the bike his way???)

              • Dovi's garage is closed. Aoyama getting back on bike.. looks cheerful, so may be nothing to worry for him!
                @bull: so which ever team he joins his team mates cant ride i - either the bike is hard to ride or hardly ridden

                  does he really have that much clout at HRC?

                        • Abraham has scored impressive seventh-placed finishes at Jerez and Silverstone in his debut campaign, and his father and team owner said: “Permanent top ten is perfect, he is very young at 21 and everything is new for the team. Twice he has been lucky because it has rained, but also he was very good, and scoring two top-seven results has been perfect so far for our team.”

                          always thought Repsol would favor their home boy, Dani.

                          and with how he's been riding the honda... does he even need to tweak it at all.

                          • Motegi MotoGP round to go ahead, say FIM

                            What the above doesn't say is that the race will definitely go ahead at Motegi...

                              • stoner in dovi's garage... i guess he is sharing some concerns
                                update:
                                though the sun came bright at the end most of the riders decided to stay in.. not much time to get the heat on the tyres...

                                the track dried out quickly... will be interesting to see a wet to dry race :P
