Valencia: Spies vs. Toseland - SV650.org

Who do you think will come out on top? Spies has already impressed on his GP bike debut with suzuki last year at Donnington.

My prediction: Toseland faster in FP1, Spies qualifies and finishes the race higher than Toseland.

when is it? I reckon same as you. Think Spies better under pressure too.

Will they both be on the same spec bikes?
If so I dont know who will be quicker,but I bet Colin Edwards beats both of them.

Read in some website that Spies is riding a Fiat Rossi spec bike!

But could be a crock of lies....

But he either will be rubbish or be outstanding

Place your bets......

Edwards will beat the pair of them. Spies will be in and around 7th - 10th kinda area. Toseland will be at the back like he was last time out, making up the numbers again...

9. Ben Spies USA Sterilgarda Yamaha Team 1min 33.539 sec
14. James Toseland GBR Monster Yamaha Tech 3 1min 34.107 sec

Things not good for JT at the start or should I say the end.

Spies is already in the lead. I suppose Spies is on a new engine and JT is on an old tired one...but still...not good.

spies will have a good race by the looks of it, this will do his career no harm at all

James has to ride his heart out just not to look silly.

JT can't win so it's fairly hopeless.

Spies beats him: Yamaha are right.
He beats Spies: well, it's Spies first race with a new bike etc etc etc

Yeah fairly dull at the front after lap 5 or so, but Spies showed some class. Got settled in and then made a good move forwards to a genuine 7th without multiple crashers, except for Stoner's non-start (d'oh!).

Was good to see Edwards appreciative
