Brno - Free practice times (3).

please be dry for qualifying

All I can say is....

Michelin have a lot to answer for. Laguna was bad enough, but this is taking the piss.

Nuff said I think.

This one is for the Stoner Groupies. If the Yamaha is so good home why are the other three Yamaha being the Back Markers. This shows Rossi is the only one who can Tame the beast/Bronco with his Dirt Track riding Skills. Hmmmmmm doesn't sound right. LOL

This results shows us that ducati electronic equipment work better than the others on both dry and wet condition.
Wow.. Maybe Ducati ECU also work perfectly on snowy track ???

saran its because rossi is on the tyres developed by stoner, thats why he is ahead of the other yamahas!

saran - you really are a TOTAL turnip. Look at the tyres on the other Yams. Can someone with a functioning brain tell me what happened to Rossi - that gap seems a bit large to me.

saran - the answer is in the rubber

This practice seemed to be just killing time and hope for better weather.

By the way - from just looking at the live timing during FP3, it has nothing to do with the Yamaha. It does have EVERYTHING to do with the Bridgestone tyres though!.....& for most of that session Rossi was the last one! Which means there are about 10 other Bridgestone riders who are just as good or faster than him in the wet.

I'm off to find a weather forecast for tomorrow because it better not be wet!

On a serious note guys - do you thing Rossi will find some speed? Historically is he good in the wet? I heard Stoner is awesome which has me worried.

Nothing I can do about it now anyway...except pray for a dry race or a more skillful Rossi

Name - don't tear up that ticket just yet - but you might have been safer with a win/place bet, BRNO is going to be harder for him to block passing if he can head Stoner. Whatever, looks like you're in for some fun for your money..

Well... "Name Here", try put on Stoner then, and I bet you'll lose another $2000 :=))

Rossi is complete driver. Dry or wet doesn't matter. I'm sure he will be at the front anyway.

OK I think I will start having a little faith in Rossi. It's just that when I was monitoring FP1 Rossi was damn fast right out of the blocks. Usually he is much slower than Stoner & slowly catches him by the race.

So I thought 'wow if Rossi is this fast now he will surely have the edge on Stoner come race day'. My local bookie still had odds of 3.50 up (which was a mistake they forgot to suspend the market when practice started), so I maybe rushed my decision and put the 2K on Rossi.

Anyway I was just really surprised by how slow he was in FP3 and am a little disappointed. Really hoping for a dry race & if possible (crosses fingers)....a dry qualifying session

Sorry saran - must have been the way you told it. Name - Stoner has had some excellent results in the wet but don't ever count Rossi out - but if practice is wet then he'll have a harder time dodging the crazies in the opening laps unless he pulls something out of the bag in Qualifying. Michelin must be hoping it keeps raining so somebody doesn't firebomb their tent...

szo, Ducati is complete bike then (thx to its mighty ECU that handle TC), even in snowy I'm sure it will be at the front anyway LOL

Rossi is don't wasting the time because he knows that tomorow will be dry,,if not GB and VR will kill this gap in the warm-up---you all forgot that rossi has more time in this sport than you started to speak (most of you),,

remember sachenring--it's hard to say that rossi is not good in the wet he simply don't like this sort of racing,,casey likes because he don't like to race with somebody-simply to win-we saw this more times..

Thank goodness Rossi switched from the French rubber it now looks an inspired decision.
I think we could end up with just one tyre manufacturer next year in motogp.

Rossi is a complete driver anyway!. In the rain as good as casey. Stoner storms dry practices in germany. He had to win also in the wet then.

Looks like the new engine might still be a bit peeky in the wet or the electronics haven't caught up with the extra power yet all the yams are struggling, they are the worst of the michis also, still work needed in the wet but there is no doubt the engine is quicker in the dry... It was never going to be a miracle,. First will do Vale.. , Casey will crash if pushed hard enough and then lets get on with testing the new parts...

Go Rossifumi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
