the report said that Rossi only did 9 laps or so...so, I wouldn't read too much into him being in ninth place right now...it was raining there and the track was a tad damp....hence the slow times....the track record is a flat 2:00 set by Kato last year, so expect the times to really pick up once the place dries out....but, let's hope King Colin can put in an impressive showing this weekend!

Re: Well, Well

Thats awesome!

The priller has always had the most horsepower on the grid....sounds like they are getting it sorted...

Edit:
Should have read the article....looks like those times were set under 'mixed' conditions and really don't indicate much....

Re: Well, Well

First day of Qualifying, and it's raining. Might as well toss the times, I'll be anxious to see what happens tomorrow.

Colin has been saying that there were some drastic changes coming to the Cube, hmmmmm.

Colin isn't in question. His ride is. I hope it stays together long enough to finish.

Someone is still doing well.
These times are quite drastically faster. We'll see how final qualifying progresses.

Looks like Nicky is really coming along. If he can get at least the 6 spot on the grid, he has a damn good shot at top 3.
