Yeah, I call it Sears too...just didn't want to throw in any confusion since it doesn't sound like she's been there.

Mladin's pulling a Rossi. He's running low 38's...the only other person in the 38's is Yates and those are high 38's. Everyone else is high 39's or above. Jake's the best of the Honda's again.

Eric can't seem to come to terms with the Duc. I thought he would be right up there.

Re: Motorcycle Race May 1-2

It sounds like lack of test time (since he's a Michelin rider) is killing him. From what I read, he spent the whole first session trying to figure out proper gearing. This session he's testing tires....he just doesn't have the time to really set up the bike. Dunlop, by their actions, seem to have really effectively squashed Ducati/EBoz/Michelin hopes for the year. At least, if Mladin keeps this pace up...Mladin just dropped into the low 37's. Everyone else is low 38's.
