what they do this time? give hayden a unicycle?

poor nicky :(
 
Can't wait to see the who is at the top of the time sheets when all the riders have had some time on their bikes. I bet Stoner will still be ahead.
 
Pedrosa crashed at the end of the day and broke his hand. He's heading home. RdP was fastest...

Those damned accidental wheelies during practice starts can be brutal! Sad to see a million dollar motorcycle melting.

But the little guy has little bones, so healing should be accelerated somewhat. During his time off, maybe he can catch up on those missed classes in charm school. If the break is really bad, that means there will be two more race wins up for grabs this year. Pedrosa always seems good for two at least.

Hard to forget that little dust-up in Portugal 2006. The PEDROSA MUST DIE posting on BARF after that race in a huge, bolded font still ranks among the best yet IMHO.

It would have been great if Spies could have made this year his rookie season in MotoGP. Suzuki needs three bikes on the grid and it is such a disadvantage for the U.S. riders who have to learn these tough tracks. But he belongs there with these other rippers. I agree, the field is just amazing and getting better. Can't wait for Qatar under the lights.
