Stoner may have the season wrapped up already, but at least the MotoGP championship will be decided on the track. Not naming any names of course. ;)

Is this weekend going to be another redwash?

Edit: Btw if anyone's wondering why the site was playing up earlier it's because it's been moved to a shiny new server. We should be all set now.

What a qualifying session and what a lap by Hayden to take pole. This is shaping up to be a good race. :up:

I'd be stunned if Hayden could hold it together for race distance............ i've got money riding on him not winning a race this year, all of a sudden i'm feeling a little nervous.. :neutral:

I'll chuck a couple of hundred points on him, will be a nice pickup of imaginary $$ if he does win :lol:

Mostly I just like the odds, but I think he has a fair chance unless that grid position is 100% down to a qualifying tyre covering up the Honda's usual problems.

That was one of the best races in ages. :up:

Aye, good to see an actual race. Didn't realize Hofmann had pulled out, not sure what he thought was the best case scenario from that... Hopefully Chaz will get a couple of run outs now though. Just done this on another board so kinda worth copying, things as they stand at the moment for 2008...

Stoner
Melandri

Rossi
Lorenzo

Hayden
Pedrosa??

Toseland
Edwards

Vermeulen
Capirossi

Hopkins
West

De Angelis
Elias/Kiyonari??

Guintoli
Barros/Davies/Aoyama/Elias??

Dovizioso

De Puniet

Ku. Roberts??

Can't wait to see what Melandri can do :D

Melandri and JT are probably the most exciting for me on that list as they're both great riders who look as though they'll be lining up on some very decent bikes.

Pedrosa's an interesting one too, if only because I get the impression he's forgotten that Honda are a force to be reckoned with, regardless of a bad first season with the 800s.
