Pedrosa was held up by Hopkins.. Too bad, he should've been on pole
Hopkins was also on a flying lap so he isnt to blame, but yes Pedrosa would probably be on pole if it wasnt for thatQuote:

I think the temperatures were higher by then..Quote:

Interesting grid for sunday.

Expect stoner to make a flying start and try to pull away asap. Capirossi could easily tie up Dani and Rossi making Stoners job a little easier. Expect Colin and Nicky to fade by the half way point, with Hoppers either picking them off or desperate to get past.
Also look out for Vermy, he'll be on for a top 5, consistant and pretty quick.. Plus he's actually qualified pretty well for once.. Third row..
damn motogp.com web site is crapping out on me 10 mins before the lights go out !! Fuming.
surprising GP
What the **** was Jacque doing :( ?
I had the same issue. Star sports on the TVU player has the races so it worked out.Quote:

WOOOOOOOT! :D :D
BRILLANT RIDE from Casey - as I understand China as in the Istanbull mould so there is no reason he cant win next race!! Showed a great maturity beyond his years. There was doubt that he could be too erratic and unable to keep a level head but hes proven that WRONG - question is can he sustain this form and can the bike last all season...
I loved the scrap for third - great to see Caparossi get on the podium too - loved when he said that hes the father of these two being so old :D
GO CASEY!!
