It's not looking good if FP1 is anything to go by - Rossi 9th . Crutchlows looking good, as is Suzuki. I'm loving the new graphics display.

Been a long winter and can't wait for Sunday, I'll be watching practice and qualifying and watching it now over on BT Sport. The old goat has been looking good in pre season testing so come Sunday I'd say he'll be in the mix come the chequered flag.

Yep, looking forward to this season's racing - Crutchlow's team mate, Jack Miller should be worth following seeing as he has come straight up from Moto3.

Which links will you use? PM if preferred. As I say, wizi wig was my main site last year.

I'm hoping someone can make a fight of it against Marquez, although when you look at fp1, the Suzuki in 3rd place is 50kmh down on the Hondas top speed. Ridiculous.

It might be worth predicting the top 3 and seeing at the end of the season who got it the closest?

I think...
1. Marquez
2. Lorenzo
3. Rossi

Pedrosa in 4th, crutchlow in 5th.

You're not exactly going out on a limb with your top 3.

I'll wager you that Dovisioso, on the Ducati that Crutchlow quit, finishes ahead of him on his factory Honda.

I am, it's putting 2 yams above a blisteringly quick Honda. Even though it's ridden by Pedrosa.
Pedrosa needs to prove himself before his seat is nicked by another Marquez.

Yeah, Cals looking very good, the works Yamaha's look like they're working on race set up as Rossi looked pretty happy at the end of the session. I am surprised of the pace of the new Suzuki, I know they can run a softer compound but good work for a new GP bike.

It's impressive. It must be running through corners at pace as I said its way off in top speed. The ducatis even look to be a step further than last season. But happy to see that it looks as though Cal made the right decision.

Ducati completely new bike this year, has overcome its under steer issues.
Suzuki going well, although the super soft makes it a lot quicker over one lap, race distance will be lucky to get in the top ten. It's down 10/15kph though, not 50.

You're right, I was looking at espargaro's slowest lap top speed.
