Laconi latest to hit front feel problems.
Having been apparently immune to the front end feel problems suffered at some stage by almost all the Ducati 999 riders this season, factory star Regis Laconi today experienced the dreaded issue - but insists it's no big problem.
Laconi qualified 0.3secs from Friday pace setter Frankie Chili, who has been the most vocal critic of the 999's front feel, but expects the problem to be solved in time for Saturday's second qualifying and superpole.

"I'm not very happy about the front end feeling for the first time this year, but it's nothing to worry about because we have some different setting to test tomorrow," claimed Regis.
"The front end is no so good all the way round the circuit and is not turning in to the corner, but we're working on that to make it better tomorrow.
"We didn't test a qualifier either, we just gathered the most information possible for tomorrow when I'm sure we'll find something good," he added.
