This is one of those times when lack of familiarity/experience can be an advantage. Wink

"Marquez seemed to love the COTA track and could not keep himself from grinning. Pedrosa didn't seem to care for the blind corners and said it was designed more for F1 than MotoGP."

Dang, Marquez is killing it so far!  waytogo

Meanwhile, Stoner, who wasn't even at the test, commented that the grip sucked and Marquez was riding like a wanker.

Lap times will be interesting. F1 had a best qualifying lap of 1:34, and best race lap of 1:40. The Ferrari Challenge and Porsche GT3 cars were doing best laps of about 2:14 the same weekend. At the time I figured GP should be able to get in the low 2:00 range.

As long as there is not a GP12 in sight, Rossi would like a 7-11 parking lot on a Ruckus.

Fearless kid.
He will be exciting.

I suspect Stanboli made it clear that wadding it a second time wouldn't end well.

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."

I understand this is SOP, of course, but it's kind of funny that the upstart kid is the one playing keep-away with the lines he's figured out...

It's also amusing to read the reports that Lorenzo intends to hit up SXSW tonight.

Yes, I'm jealous.  Grin
