Boooooooyaaaaaaaa!



my prediction....SmurfyMcPintmake the beast with two backsstick doesn't podium.

supposed to be sunny and in the 80s this weekend in jerez

The Spanish turd will need to figure out the Ohlins quickly. I think Lorenzo might surprise some people.

Is Lorenzo really a surprise at this point?  He's an established top 3 world talent.

He's still "hurt" and people had written him off until mid season. I kinda though he was playing opposum (SP?). Granted, compared to some other tracks Qatar might not be the worst physically, but you can tell that he's strong enough to be at least close to his 2009 season.

judging by his performance at the end of the last race, i'd say he's just fine

bunch of old jerez stories and photos on soup today.. well worth visiting.
