Looks like very few bikes work better on Qs than race tires. Quite a few of them were faster in FP3.

Yea, but keep in mind temps in FP3 were mid90s. I seen temps around Q time were in the 110s, so that probably had something to do with it too.

Ah. I know how it feels to ride in those temps. It was nearly that hot today.
The 'Stone riders still get along better with the Qs. They've got the super sticky rubber thing down pretty good.

That was the first thing I noticed. That's a little too much for my comfort. I wasn't even comfortable watching them do it.

Camelback. Has had it for the last several races. Gotta stay hydrated out there. Surprised more riders weren't using them. And, you can fill it with ice. Keeps the back cooler.
