*While qualifying might look good for the guys in red, it sounds like Honda and Yamaha are likely to opt for the hard tire option for the race, which Ducati can't use, so I don't expect much from them on race day.

Sounds a bit like punching "play" on a recording from Rossi's days with Ducati - of today's difficulties, he said:

“We have a lot of problems and I don't feel good with the bike and was not able to ride at the limit. The main problem is that I didn't have enough feeling with the front so I had trouble under braking, turning, and also in changing direction I'm very slow. The bike is too lazy and heavy so this means we don't have the right balance."

Lorenzo's chance to get the points lead from Rossi.  What a great season with MM a pita to both those guys.

Pol has a headache.

a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective

Well, not quite 'Lorenzo' air, but enough.  :P

I wouldn't cross Rossi off just yet, I suspect they'll figure out a tune-up tonight.

The weather may still jam everyone's carefully crafted plans on Sunday.

It's Indy, NO cross winds, NO rain, just a plain old boring circuit . . . right?

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

I was looking for a better result out of the suzuki pair considering Aleix and Mav proved that the bikes can run with the big guys

Bradl quicker than Bautista is interesting.
Did not expect that first time out.
