This weekend will be interesting, but with the top riders being so close to each other I just don't see Rossi being willing to push enough to win the race. I think he almost certainly clinches the championship with a podium though.
Constructors points show the sheer dominance of the I4 package, something the V4s just can't beat!

Its a wrap. Valentino has once again rubbed the haters noses in it.
I'll have to wave the white flag and agree with FS here. Only thing left for me to do is get out the frying pan and spices and start preparing my lunch for Sunday.
Wasn't the best season, but it did fill in the WSBK racing gaps nicely. Congrats to Rossi and his fans!

Good to see hayden got a ok grid spot. Atleast he's consistent with that. I wonder how stoner will do in the heat? Sand bagging? I dont think so, maybe but i doubt it. Casey can have a great start still from that spot.
So VR picks up almost 2.5 seconds from the first practice ! That's funny . This is what makes the guy a legend already . He could just take it easy , ride around , enjoy the sites , but he's still storming , and if at all possible he'll try to win the race . I wonder if Horhay's own people have told him to ride as if there were LARGE balloons surrounding Rossi .
oh come on.. I stay up till 3am for a rain delay?
gwaah
