Well its official now, rossi is washed up, over the hill, a spent force . . . . He has just lapped 1.4 seconds faster on the yamaha than he managed in fp3 at sepang race weekend last year,
Still an hour to go though, think Rossi will improve with some time. Pretty impressed with Marquez as well!
MM 0.2sec off DP! Would not shock me if he won the 2013 MGP... the little git! The reason why he got a factory ride?
True,... now wheres that nutter dragging his lid.. Don't think many can catch MM... lets face it he's fast as fook... bring on race 1!

I think 1:20 says it all. I haven't seen Vale stick it into a corner with that kind of apparent confidence all the time he was on the Ducati.

Really happy to see Bradley Smith improving at a rapid rate. 12th on the first day and 8th on the 2nd is nothing to be sniffed at. Cal is round abouts where most people expected him but it would be nice to see him getting into the top 3.
