As usual, great stuff from motomatters.com . . .

I had also forgotten that they'd changed around qualifying.  I wonder if it'll work better.  There's going to be at least one round where the Group 1 & Group 2 thing ends up leaving someone who would otherwise be up front completely screwed up by weather, or injury, or a mechanical.   

So FP4 will actually be qualifying for the qualifying sessions.

The new quali. rules should make it more interesting I think...although they should have just adopted the F1 or WSBK rules instead of using practice times. If the racing is like last year, the qualifying might be the most exciting part of the weekend!
