Well certainly a variety of bikes on the front two rows

Watched this at lunchtime. Bayliss wasn't comfortable on his bike at all, whereas Toseland made an unfortunate mistake in the first second and then had a slide in the second - his words, not mine! But he's on the front row and thats the main thing!

But looking forward to the races- I'm not a Max fan personally, but his speed was impressive. Lets see what happens in the morning!

wwoooooooooo GO my man Corser!!!

Looks like tomorrow's going to be good.

The Mrs is already upset as I won't go shopping with her "Bloddy racings back is it ?"

Yeah, I watched on t'internet as well...Bayliss looked very uncomfortable but Max looked so at ease with that gixxer...even kagayama and neurkirchner(sp?) impressed...

for a brand new bike, the new R1 looks pretty tidy. could be the one to beat this year, specially with consistent corser on it & the factory ducatis not having changed since '06. mind you, max on the suzi could be the one to beat too ... hmm

can't wait, this should be a cracking season
