Maybe he should complain about all the tracks. [laugh] Maybe whining is Stoner's secret weapon. The whining makes him so fast not talent or the Honda! ;D
Too bad The Ben is so sick. :P I'd probably be hospitalized not trying to qualy for a MotoGP race! [popcorn] Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: The Don on September 30, 2011, 11:18:45 PM Qualifing

Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: zooom on October 01, 2011, 03:51:41 AM since the Don left off the timing...(which BTW, I think this is FP3, not qualy)
1 Casey Stoner 1:46.162 2 Andrea Dovizioso 1:46.302 3 Dani Pedrosa 1:46.429 4 Marco Simoncelli 1:46.592 5 Jorge Lorenzo 1:46.809 6 Ben Spies 1:46.892 7 Valentino Rossi 1:47.161 8 Alvara Bautista 1:47.202 9 Nicky Hayden 1:47.335 10 Randy De Puniet 1:47.514 11 Hector Barbera 1:47.648 12 Colin Edwards 1:47.666 13 Hiroshi Aoyama 1:47.695 14 Toni Elias 1:48.157 15 Cal Crutchlow 1:48.196 16 Karel Abraham 1:48.543 17 Kousuke Akiyoshi 1:49.298 18 Damian Cudlin 1:50.239 19 Shin Ichi Ito 1:50.266 It's just crazy how Nicky keeps running faster than Rossi. I guess not so much now....Val made a leap in timing while Nicky stayed at relatively the same time-ish... Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: zooom on October 01, 2011, 04:24:48 AM and here's qualy times...
1 Casey Stoner Repsol Honda Honda RC212V 1:45.267 2 Jorge Lorenzo Yamaha Factory Racing Yamaha M1 1:45.523 3 Andrea Dovizioso Repsol Honda Honda RC212V 1:45.791 4 Dani Pedrosa Repsol Honda Honda RC212V 1:45.966 5 Ben Spies Yamaha Factory Racing Yamaha M1 1:46.042 6 Marco Simoncelli San Carlo Honda Gresini Honda RC212V 1:46.211 7 Valentino Rossi Ducati Marlboro Ducati GP11 1:46.467 8 Alvara Bautista Rizla Suzuki Suzuki GSV-R 1:46.586 9 Hector Barbera Aspar Team Ducati GP11 1:46.694 10 Nicky Hayden Ducati Marlboro Ducati GP11 1:46.763 11 Hiroshi Aoyama San Carlo Honda Gresini Honda RC212V 1:46.811 12 Cal Crutchlow Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Yamaha M1 1:46.818 13 Randy De Puniet Pramac Racing Ducati GP11 1:46.917 14 Colin Edwards Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Yamaha M1 1:47.165 15 Karel Abraham Cardion AB MotoRacing Ducati GP11 1:47.922 16 Toni Elias LCR Honda Honda RC212V 1:48.169 17 Kousuke Akiyoshi LCR Honda Honda RC212V 1:48.367 18 Damian Cudlin Pramac Racing Ducati GP11 1:48.962 19 Shin Ichi Ito Honda Honda RC212V 11:49.971 Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: zooom on October 01, 2011, 04:33:40 AM Ok Stoner on pole, let the moaning begin, I expect at least two pages [laugh] all of em wish for a good clean lap...some get it, some don't....should be a good race though, especially if Dani get one of his huge starts!!! Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: fastwin on October 01, 2011, 07:32:41 AM The Clinic must have performed a miracle on The Ben for him to log in his usual 5th spot on the grid. :o I have had serious food poisoning a couple of times (once on an eight hour flight from Hawaii to Dallas... don't ask! [puke] [bang] [thumbsdown]) and it really kicked my ass for days afterwards. I can't imagine doing what he has done. If he holds up for the duration of the race it will be a super human feat.
Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: Raux on October 02, 2011, 03:03:42 AM I guess not so much now....Val made a leap in timing while Nicky stayed at relatively the same time-ish... Val out on the 1st lap and Hayden 7th. hmmm. Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: lazylightnin717 on October 02, 2011, 05:46:22 AM Meh..
Plenty of action in that race but nothing I really wanted to see Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: ducpainter on October 02, 2011, 06:57:33 AM Rossi's lack of a competitive bike make him make mistakes and ride like Simoncelli
Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: lazylightnin717 on October 02, 2011, 07:22:11 AM Damn shame that Hayden can't have a good enough bike to try to keep up with Stoner without running off the track
Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: fastwin on October 02, 2011, 07:50:16 AM Forget everybody else. How the heck did Spies go from dead last to 6th? Especially after being violently sick from food poisoning??!! I need the phone number of his doctor. ;D Damn impressive ride.
I'm sure Lorenzo will love hearing that Rossi blames him for his crash. [roll] Good comparo to Super Sic. :P Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: Scotzman on October 02, 2011, 08:59:26 AM http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/02102011/66/rossi-says-podium-possible.html (http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/02102011/66/rossi-says-podium-possible.html)
Stupid front brakes. Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: TiNi on October 02, 2011, 10:00:43 AM saw a post race stoner interview where the person interviewing him said something to the effect of them not seeing him making a "mistake" often
he corrected them quickly saying it wasn't his mistake, it was the tracks fault dani also said something to the same effect about stoner's mistake on camera [laugh] Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: Raux on October 02, 2011, 10:38:39 AM Damn shame that Hayden can't have a good enough bike to try to keep up with Stoner without running off the track Hayden and Baustista both tried to follow Stoner and had issues.I didn't see the race, but now I'm upset I didnt. Apparenty Stoner also saved a tank slapper. DUCATI YOU SUCK FOR LETTING STONER GO... there I feel better. Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: Jester on October 02, 2011, 12:15:24 PM Hayden and Baustista both tried to follow Stoner and had issues. I didn't see the race, but now I'm upset I didnt. Apparenty Stoner also saved a tank slapper. DUCATI YOU SUCK FOR LETTING STONER GO... there I feel better. Honestly you didn't miss anything. Ride through penalties x 3, crashes, people running off track, and virtually no racing at all. Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: Jester on October 02, 2011, 12:17:45 PM Damn shame that Hayden can't have a good enough bike to try to keep up with Stoner without running off the track Its a damn shame Lorenzo, Spies, and Rossi don't have a good enough bike to keep up every week either. So take whatever they would need to keep up and then add on another 10% to that bike and you'd have what Hayden needs. ;D Title: Re: MOTO GP Japan Round 15 SPOILERS Post by: fastwin on October 02, 2011, 01:00:41 PM True.
Loved the dice at the end between Dovi and Super Sic! [thumbsup] Like the commentators said, they have been banging handlebars since the mini bike days! Just wish Dovi had held him off. Either way, good racing for 4th.
