since no one's talking about it...
rossi fastest yesterday. cal actually pipped him today by 1/100th.
http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2013/Mar/130325ki2.htm
"Rossi said yesterday that for the first time in two years he and his crew decided on a new set up direction and the bike actually responded positively to the changes."
d'oh!
pedro left early today. neck again? same with ben, shoulder of course.
Marquez is testing who knows what. or sandbagging

I suspect Pedro left 'cause the day started shitty wet, and had nothing new to test.
Rossi did find a bit of something yesterday, seems he's found his direction to go with the setup.
I suspect the baseline Lorenzo 'wheels in line watching paint dry' setup was far enough off that it took a while to get past.
Whatever he found, he's gonna need it.

I read on motogp.com that Bridgestone only allocated 4 sets of wets, and it wasn't
really
wet.
I wonder if they ran out of tires?

Ducati: where motogp riders go for a year or two, when they're between contracts with other sucessful racing teams.

So here's what preseason has taught us --
Yamahas are fast on Yamaha tracks
Hondas are fast on Honda tracks
Marquez is fast.
Rossi is fast
Lorenzo is fast. Lap after lap after lap. After lap. And he's a pedophile.
Twinkletoes McStrainedhisdouche is fast. Until he is injured. Then he can't ride. Which is why he won't win the championship.
Crutchlow is fast for one lap
Ducatis suck
CRTs suck
The Ben is still hurt. And he rides a Ducati. Which sucks.

Crutch is fast, but I expect the same issues as last year. Fast, but beyond the limit, and ultimately either will have to learn to drop back or keep crashing.

Triple sucks.
I'm a fan of his no bullshit attitude. I hope he can get some results on the bike.

Yamaha and Honda are always watching what each other does. No one looks at Ducati. Honda usually brings the $$$
