I can't wait for this weekends race. Should be great to see those guys let it all hang out (man that does not read well).
Valentino fastest out the box, then bike troubles slow him down in FP2. Hayden a solid #2 place after FP2. I am torn b/t who to root for.
I think no matter what condition his bike is in, the Dr. will have a few more tricks up his sleeve. You can't knock him anywhere, let alone on the box on all 6 visits, 4 wins, not too shabby for a track he doesn't really like... It will be a good test for Nicky (who must be dying for another win in the event he does win it all just so naysayers can't harp on his lack of outright wins) but he's been around long enough to play it smart. I can't imagine having to run race these last 2 knowing a fall ends the title run. That said...
1) Rossi
2) Hayden
3) Stoner
(Cool to see McCoy back doing well, that guys like a Timex (or a dinosaur take your pick). - I always watch faster and feel bad he's not around anymore...hope he gets the ride next yr.)
