MOTOGP » Stoner, Lorenzo defy pain in warm-up

Tough.as.nails.

I reckon Rossi will be hard to beat what with both Lorenzo and Stoner having fairly heavy crashes yesterday. Both, particularly Lorenzo's, looked painful. Plus, Lorenzo will probably have some lasting damage from all his excursions last year. The real question is, how long till Stoner's mystery illness kicks in and he slows down.

Race prediction:

1. Rossi
2. Lorenzo
3. Stoner
4. Edwards

andrewm?

edwards before pedrosa? Don't think so!

Amazing how they're still going to race, hopefully they'll both beable to complete the race and the injuries won't take over and make them stop. Would love a Lorenzo win!

I am afraid that Jorge won't be on the rostrum. Dislocated shoulder seems to me like quite serious handicap. My prediction: Rossi - Stoner - Pedrosa. Then maybe Edwards, Dovizioso, Elias or Lorenzo.

Go Simoncelli! err... hang on...

but seriously, let's hope that everyone finishes, two more crashes in warmup, that is enough.

@moi - you can't discount Edwards. He usually goes well here. Pedrosa could be up there but after bouncing along the ground a few times he must be hurting big time by the end of the race. He's got the talent but does he have the physical ability to be competitve for the whole race? Definately one to watch if he doesn't crash. Should be a good race though.

1- Stoner
2- Pedrosa
3- Lorenzo
4- Edwards

Rossi DNF

How about that

Rossi will run with it since Lorenzo almost self-destructed, Stoner will hang on in front of "peeping tom" Pedrosa if it's the last thing he'll ever do, and Dovizioso will fight off Edwards, Lorenzo and Elias.

Or not...

Since Hopper is not racing I think Marco will win
