pretty much par for the course in the opening two races, Ducati's work well there and Checa proved it this time, Leon did reasonably although he lost out in the second race a bit, nice to see Haga making a fight for it in the second race to, perhaps he can make up for a lack of testing in short order.

But the ride of the day has to be Melandre's battle with Biaggi over the last 8 laps of the second race, he took Biaggi several times on a brilliant line, only to loose it again to the Aprillia's power down the straight.

Not a bad start to the session though.

Cheers Mark.
