It WAS at 6 am

Good qualifying seesion from Vale , top of the list, BUT , loris didnt run qualifiers , he just kept realing off strings of very fast laps.

Loris will be the man to beat come Sunday morning imho

 

Sorry I meant times for race coverage

Race is definitely 6am Sunday morning , live on Eurosport

 

A great quali session. Rossi pulling a rabbit out at the last moment was amazing too even though the director missed most of the lap choosing to follow Stoner instead. It is almost as bad as F1 in that regard.

 

heres how they line up for the mornings race .

if you see nothing else , try to see Loris Capirossi's pole lap

 

That pole lap was awesome. He knew it was unbeatable before he got over the line
Rossi did well but got a good tow off Edwards, as did Elias. I can't see Capirossi not winning this one.

 

But then I have just watched it


I didn't think this was as an exciting race as most of the others this season.


Nicky gifted an extra place at the last minute too.


Oh well, it's still good stuff

 

At least the Championship is nicely set up for Estoril and Valencia ...

I saw the state of De Puniet's bike but never actually saw how it happened ...
