That's fine. But for those who can't follow all the action, I'm still going to post the FP times because for some, they may want to know, especially if they're tipping. Note in 20th position is Kurtis Roberts, in addition to Kenny to get the KR212V sorted out. Live FP2 timing is going on right now!

[snikwad]

oh no bro, not knocking it, id rather wait to see how they look after qual, and both FP before i start analysing.

Poor Roberts, i feelk so bad for em.
this wont be good for sponsorship next season at all.

[NesNeedsBoost]

GO HOPKINS!

I'm taking the leaders here...Rossi and Stoner. The main factor here is the HUUUUUGE front straight where Ducati (stoner and cap) is gonna have a major top speed advantage.

Great to see the Rizla Suzuki team give Hopkins a decent bike to work with. He's throwing that b!tch around and running some great laps.

[gee]

go stoner go!!!!!!!

eh snik!!!

19. Kurtis Roberts USA Team Roberts (M) 2min 7.571 secs

DNQ:
Makoto Tamada JPN Dunlop Tech 3 Yamaha (D) 2min 9.080 secs

[sooperman12]

Makoto Tamada is expected to race even though he DNQ due to the weird weather (his time was 107% of Stoner's pole qualifying time); Nicky Hayden is trying out a new wider fairing, which made him the second fastest Honda during FP3, still 11.1 km/h behind Stoner's Ducati and still behind Pedrosa's Honda. Hayden said he lost a lot of wet confidence and needs to regain it; I take that as he'll be real slow.

Damn Stoner is on fire! What the heck is CE doing in 16th place!?! Those Bridgestones are really kicking arse this year...

Go Rossi!!!!!!!!!!

[vizsladog]

If its dry i give it to rossi....

[snikwad]

Mugello has a long straight away too, and the corner leading into it is a sweeper.
if Michelin delivers, Rossi can take the race

[alrova]

go stoner!!! Sotoner 2007 champ

[fatmikey916]

i agree if its dry roosi is takin it. but GO HOPPER!!

[sooperman12]

The last time Mugello was wet, back in 2004, I think, Rossi won it. So, don't count Rossi out even under wet conditions.

thats all bike bro,that the ducati at work, not stoner.

[UPS757pf]

It'll be another Bridgestone 1-2-3...

[sooperman12]

Can't be just the Ducati, because Loris is a great rider, multiple GP winner and he's mid-pack. Alex Barros, also multiple GP winner, upper mid-pack. Alex Hoffman, okay rider, mid-pack. So, the only one who's taken the Ducati to the promise land is Stoner. It's got to be the rider with a huge side of luck.

Trick Daddy on the other hand is experiencing the opposite of EVERYTHING he experienced last year, except for the fact, the bike is still crap. In fact, his bike is even WORSE this year. I don't blame Hayden so much that I blame Honda for a crappy design that has obviously played into the hands of smaller riders like Elias and Pedrosa who have similar statures as well as riding styles.

[sooperman12]

I think Bridgestone sweeping the top 3 spots is a good bet.

[snikwad]

yeah, so where are all you Rossi doubters now, huh. what now?

Where is Gee at, Stoner wasnt even on podium.
