I'm currently watching qualifying. Race day predictions?

Pedrosa is an easy pick, he's on a roll. I wonder how Rossi will fare? He won, what, 7 years in a row at Mugello?

That was quite a race, Lorenzo is an absolute machine. Marquez showed us that he is human after all. Pretty interesting results.

Bautista knocked Rossi off at the first corner :frown:
 
Does every racer have a camera mounted front and back? That seems like it would be a good way to have incredible coverage of the whole race.
 
dam rossi went down again in the first lap I wonder how the guy that wrecked him made it out of Italy the Hondas were stickin with Lorenzo till about halfway through the race then Lorenzo walked away seems like the yammi was flowing much better

Lorenzo ran a clinic on the perfect race. Just fast enough to keep the Repsol boys behind him, but not giving it his all and just waiting for the right opportunity to lay the hammer down and make it stick.

It was a shame that Rossi got knocked out in the first turn, just bad luck not being seen like that.

Not that I am happy Marquez went down, but I kept saying it was going to happen, when you ride on the edge like that all the time your are bound to slip over the edge at some point. It would of been cool for him to be the first rookie to make 5 podiums in his first 5 races.
 
yep it was like Lorenzo knew the Hondas tires would wear out or something he kept just ahead of the Hondas then he picked it up and kept that pace for the rest of the race awesome rider
