So far this race weekend Yamaha have confirmed that the factory squad will use Michelins next year and that Jorge Lorenzo will be Rossi's team mate. That just clears up what we knew already.

Shocking results in practice:

That Stoner just doesn't lay off....

A nice surprise for qualifying:

1. Hayden
2. Stoner
3. Rossi
4. Tamada
5. Pedrosa
6. Edwards
7. Melandri
8. Guintoli
9. Elias
10. Hopkins
11. Checa
12. Vermeulen
13. Nakano
14. Barros
15. Capirossi
16. West
17. Hofmann
18. de Puniet
19. Roberts

Looks like Michelin won the qualifying war. Don't hold me to this but a race is a possiblity for tomorrow. Well at least the Suzukis probably won't be chasing Stoner in vain again.

<clap> <clap> For Dunlop

But Capirossi <wtf> he is on the same stuff as his teammate isn't he?

10 minutes to race start. I sincerely hope that this won't prove to be such a yawn fest as the Spa F1 race.

The grid looks more promising than in recent races so it could be good.

Are we having live discussion in here?

I'll put that down to you still feeling slightly poorly, shall I?

Hoffman started from the pits.

What happened to Rossi on the start?

Rossi is always swomped at the start.

Good start by Stoner and Pedrosa

Stoner is definitely looking like a man on a mission!

Stoner already looking as if he could walk this one, Pedrosa trying his best.

I think Pedrosa has got a chance here, he is keeping up and going a good job.

Great pass by Rossi on Hayden!!!!!
