I always giggle at the name for Turn 6: Dry Sac. The fuck?!

So will Stoner make it a clean sweep of the tests and post the fastest lap yet again? I think so.
 
Somebody will post it so: Dry Sac is a type of Spanish sherry. Not sure why they needed to name a corner after it but...
 
its ok, im sure WSBK will lap it faster anyway
 
I sat in turn 10 grandstands in 2010. Gorgeous track. That chicane wasn't there though

Stoner three-peats. Spies finds yet more speed for third.

im still waiting to see which engine configuration is the best especially in terms of frontal area and crank enertia

maybe post stuff from old magazine articles
 
Don't know if anyone noticed but Honda seems to have overcome the gap in Moto3.
6 of them in the top ten where as it used to be the other way around and Vinales is over 4 tenths in front of Kent. I imagine it will stay this way.

that power-up kit for the Honda engine from GeoTech really seemed to help. earlier this week i read something saying that power is everything in Moto3, where 2HP makes the diff between front-runner and mid-pack (assuming your chassis is sorted). its gonna be a good year in that class
 
Hoping well.

Stones will likely be the dog one more time.
