| Re: Capirossi Takes Pole With all the hype about Bayliss and Edwards knowing this track it is good to see Nicky just under Colin and in front of Troy. *
Definitely should be a great race! |

| Re: Capirossi Takes Pole Oh come now, have you not read anything that mentioned Bayliss and Colin winning at this track in the past?
The only track each of them have knowledge of in the moto GP Schedule? |

| Re: Capirossi Takes Pole Of course, I follow all of this closely.
What I was referring to was you saying that Nicky was just under Colin, maybe you meant to say he was just outside of Colin's time? |

Under, outside, behind, trailing, I guess it depends how you look at it. |

| Re: Capirossi Takes Pole The race hasn't even started and Biaggi is bitching while at the same time taking shots at Rossi
From MotoGP.com Loris Capirossi, pole position:
´We still have some work to do but we have improved, especially from yesterday. The lap time was good this afternoon but the bike is not perfect. I was trying lots of tyres and I think I have the right set-up for tomorrow. I am happy that we are in pole position again but I know that the Ducati can be faster.´
Max Biaggi, 2nd position:
´I think everyone found some speed this afternoon. My bike was stronger on the front end this morning than it was yesterday – we found the right tyre and resolved the chatter problems but I need more bottom power. We changed the gear ratio to get drive out of corner but that is not good for tyre endurance. Anyway, I am happy to be on the front row and also to be the first Honda; this is important to me.´
Valentino Rossi, 3rd position:
´I think it is clear again that the man to beat is going to be Loris. I lost positions from yesterday but I have a good rhythm and setting on the bike. I made a mistake at the end of the session by choosing a rear tyre that was too soft. I was pushing hard but it was spinning everywhere and I could not take the pole.
The new bike is not so different from the old model but it is hard to concentrate sometimes because of the noise!´
Can't wait to hear that pipe on the Honda. |
