Maybe the progressive gremlins got to his forks?

How about Jorge scoring his third consecutive pole to start off his first GP season?

Danny and Nicky both look strong.

And how bout Michelin - they look great here, the only man on 'Stones who looks like he has anything for them is Rossi.

Can't wait til tomorrow.

From Crash.net

"We were struggling a little bit for confidence coming here after the problems we had at Jerez and even though I was expecting a better performance at this track we've found similar difficulties. We're really struggling for a set-up and I don't think there's much more we can get out of the bike here," said Casey.

Well, he's on pole now, so the slightly wet track may have helped him. [thumbsup]

Glad I'm not the only one crazy enough to get up early and watch it live. It was a good race to watch. Though not as nail bitting as some.

Oh yeah... so great, I really am crazy for getting up at 5am to watch it live online.... damn.
In my defense it was only an hour before I had to go to work anyways.
