They say in the article that we will get to see what difference the changes to the Ducati will make, but I was under the impression that the new front end parts will not be ready until the second preseason test.  Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I think they are misinformed.

According to the reports from the Jerez test by Guareschi and Battaini, they had new forks, triples, swingarm and front subframe there, as well as new 'electronics':

Normal service has not resumed, but it's moving that direction.

Roughly, as of 1 pm:
A group of Hondas.
Followed by a few Yamahas.
A Suzuki.
A pack of Ducatis.
The rookies.

Spies 5th, but apparently yard-saled his bike on lap 4.
Rossi highest Ducati in 10th.

No suprise that Rossi only did 30 laps and Stoner was fastest.

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.
