if thats an indication of how good the season to be , then wow.
What a race, Lorenzo of course out front, great but once he'd gapped the others in 5 laps it was simply laptime management. But Pedrosa was great, 4th is still good points and we know the only reason he lost last year was due to too many DNF's. He needs to ignore Marquez and concentrate on everyone else.
Marquez was simply Marquez. He reminds me a lot of Simoncelli, its all smiles now but i would suspect by the midseason he will have roughed up a few of the others and will be the badboy of the pack. Damn quick but is he safe, we will have to see.
Cal, what can i say really, he's good he really is, but is he that good. Is it the non factory bike meaning he is losing tenths, but still mighty impressive when you realise he was on last season bike. But this podium needs to happen soon or he will become dispondent and then his Mrs will leave him and come and move in with me ( she is hot)
Rossi what more needs to be said, his control of the bike and his use of the track is simply unmatched, i have never doubted he would come back this season if he liked the bike. I think Lorenzo is aware that Rossi is going to be one of the major threats and i ssupect the smiles and team mate stuff will be gone by Le mans. A couple of wet races will be the decider i bet as nobody else can ride wet like he can.
Bradley Smith, ok, but he's not a MotoGp rider in my view. i could see him coming to BSB and doing well, but i doubt he will amount to much this season. That was too much of a step up for him. He was great in 125cc but even moto2 he rarely got on the podium. hope i am wrong, but fear i am not.
Oh and Dovizioso, i said last season if anybody could wrestle the Ducati to a good result it was him. I think we will see them with a podium quicker than the others like.
This season is going to be a scorcher and whoever is champion this year is probably going to be one of the best champions for a long time as they will have to fight until the end for it.
Shame for old Stoner as i really think he was hoping people would miss him, i think we have forgotten about him already as the pack has moved on.
Track 328i and some supercharged turbocharged skoda
