I wish the coverage was better, I could hardly tell who's who out there with the camera vantage a mile away.  Qatar was clear as day.

I'll happily put my fork back in the drawer.  Hopefully this was the jumpstart Haga needed.   [thumbsup]

Did the whole aggregate time thing have to do with the red flag and subsequent restart?  I caught the second race just as they restarted and the whole time Camier was in front they were talking about Checa leading.  I finally realized what they were talking about but I never found out why.

Jup, they added the timing from the first part of the second race...

Nori!   [thumbsup]

Good to not see Fabio on the screen (other than watching him toss it away).  DNF'd both races.

Anyone see the Supersport race?  Chaz was sliding that thing like crazy.

That grid is really small.  Looks like Moto2 killed it.

Wish Troy was still out there.



me too!


and notice how they didn't say really another word about the crash that caused the red flag...they usually beat it to death in looking and trying figure things out and if the rider was okay or not....

I am thinking it was pretty severe...

I don't get that crash at all.  The other guy stayed upright and was clutching his chest after he oiled down the entire track.  That doesn't make sense if the other guy hit andrews from behind.  I've watched the footage (which is limited) a couple of times and just don't get it.

Either way, he's lucky.  That looked just nasty.  <shudder>

Broken bones are good ('specially if they're non-displaced).  They heal fast.  It's the tendons and ligaments that are a pregnant dog.
