HAPPY FATHER\'S DAY!!!
It was another hot day here in Catalunya and it was a good race.
In the beginning of the race, Akira Yanagawa, Andrew Pitt and Jeremy McWilliams crashed in I think turn 4. When they replayed it, it should one of the Kawasaki riders sticking his foot and then....bam!!! All three went down. I couldn\'t tell who\'s fault it was but it was a bit messy. It looked like one of the Kawasaki riders and Jeremy were about to get into a fight after wards but then walked away.
During the race, Edwards retired, I don\'t know what exactly happened but it was a shame cause\' he was doing bitchin\' all weekend. Then as the race went on, Rossi ran off the track, and so did Troy. Loris got into the lead, and we kept sayin, Ok Loris, keep it up!!\" It was good to see him up there. Then suddenly Vale was pulling the fastest times to catch up. When he got back on the track, he was in 6th but climbed back up to 2nd. Biaggi ran off the track and then crashed. He ended up 14th.
John.................well what can be said, he rode hard and fought as much as he could with what he has. He says the tires were good, and he wasn\'t bent out of shape when he came in. His back was hurting and I hate to say it but so is the bike. Sounds pitiful I know, but it\'s true. He had a good start and was in the 12th in the beginning, but slowly dropped back. It\'s very discouraging to see him fight for 1 damn point. He says if it was his fault, then he\'d admit it was his fault, but we know it\'s not.
On the last lap of the race, Vale and Sete were battling it out. It was a good race, they were going on the inside and outside of eachother, and it was good to see Ducati take home a win though. Anyway, so that\'s the race. Tommorrow they are scheduled to test...........again. I think we may actaully go into Barcelona to see a doctor but it\'s still undecided. Will speak later.
See ya!!
Desiree
