Default Pre-Qatar thread

So testing is underway with Stoner at the top and the race is only a week away. Seems the lights are working fine.

I am curious if the umbrella girls will still hold umbrellas over the riders on the grid. I think it will be rather silly seeing as its going to be night time and all.

I predict that Rossi will be trying to make a statement in this first race but we will see.

Night time eh? Bring on the Lap Dancing! Oh wait. Qatar.

Nevermind.

I hope Rossi does well. I hope Stone and Ducati do even better. [laugh]

To my recollection, Michelin has always sported really good qualifiers, regardless of what happened last year with their race tires.
