    But, MM's board has empty slots. So, his crew wasn't trying to fox the 2 Yamaha riders.

    Well, I remember reading a piece a few years ago. I think, it was 2006. Rossi was ahead and Hayden was a few positions behind. All of sudden, Rossi started lapping faster. He won the race eventually. At the presser, he said that he saw Nicky overtake Dani on the big screen. Both Nicky and Dani were on Repsol Hondas and he knew them by their helmets. It took a while for the crowd there to digest this fact. To catch such a detail when racing shows how good he is.
    The big screen is for the spectators, not for the ones who are racing on track.

      Any result of Marquez' participation at Rossi's dirt track "training session" was supposed to remain a secret, however inevitably some rumors are coming out of Tavullia: it seems that MM93 smashed the track's record (set by Rossi of course, 1:58) with a stellar 1:55. Rossi congratulated the young champ, who had such a good time at the "ranch" that now he wants to build a similar facility at his place near Barcelona...!

        have you seen the camera on marquez's head? That is not a GoPro, Rossi has a GoPro. I wonder what Marc is using!

              Alright, Marquez "gets the pole" for the fastest lap but, Rossi wins the race at the Ranch.

              Just read that Miller is testing the Honda pdn racer on Monday at Valencia.

                  ^ Pretty much biased, IMO. Too much focus on the duo, VR and the wonder kid, isn't?

                      In FP1 Iannone apparantly set the fastest time on a medium tyre for the open class, or the softer option for the factory bikes.

                      In FP2 the Ducatis had to switch to the softer tyres to ride at the Honda's pace. It does seem that the Ducatis are improving, but difficult to say until everybody is on the same tyre option.

                      Rossi is really struggling at Aragon as are all the other Yamahas. The rear spinning too much apparently.

                            Put Barbera and de Puniet on a fast bike, they exactly know whom to follow for a hot lap!

                              And for the first time Iannone has qualified without following anyone around Not that he didn't try, but Marc pushed off apparently!!!

                              Wet day. Races delayed by around half an hour. New schedule. Check twitter for new timings.

                                Didn't watch Moto3 but, it seems to me that Miller is going to bin his run for the championship thanks, to all drama surrounding his move to MotoGP. Lack of focus for the present. We all go through this phase in life.
