*SPOLIER-Moto GP-Italia,Mugello-May contain results.*

My SV race friends here we are in Italy! Just before I go out for first practice I wondering what you all think for this race?

Again long straight for Ducati to enjoy? All Italian riders must be threat? Valentino need to be collect win? Have HRC made beter the bike for me and Nicky?

250-

Big rumour Jorge Lorenzo sign for Yamaha. He too replace Colin or Valentino? Odd when Aprilia be back in Moto GP in 2009?

125-

You little Ginger Boy be able repeat very good performance of last race?

Pedrosa, once again somebody is going to hand you your ****. You and your Kentucky Fried team mate don't stand a chance.

Indeed fingers are crossed for the little Ginger one - embarrasing when you realise a 12 year old (ok, so he's not 12, but he looks it, and he was probably riding this well at 12 too) can whup my l33t skillz

Dunno though, I may be watching TT instead, unless Pedrosa can convince me with a better standard of brolly dolly??

But Razor, you not see how I done in First practice? I going very fast!

Mr.Matt...We are in Italy? Brolly Dollies DO NOT get any better than this!

Good point, the IOM dollys sometimes look a little fierce (and hairy) (and sometimes I swear they have one too many fingers).
