More then 12 laps!
Well today was abit better then yesterday. John\'s time improved very little but at least he made it thru the whole session.
Not much to be said today, no crashes. During one of the sessions, Alex Barros was on a fast lap and Ryuichi Kiyonari was on a slow one. Anyway, as Alex was coming around, Ryuichi got in his way and Alex turned around and was waving his hand at him. It was funny, I can imagine what he was saying in his helmet.
Times were quicker today, but in the last 4-5 minutes, it seemed as though the riders weren\'t pushing much cause\' all the times were slow. Unless they were all pushing at the same time and got caught up with eachother. At the very end of the session, Yukio got behind Max and got his time. He beat John by one tenth, and when I asked him how was it during that session, he told me, \"Last section, I find Max and I chase him, thank you Max!\" From what I hear from various riders, this track is fun but it can work you. I guess you need some muscle to throw it around.
Anyway so no flamin\' bikes for Nobu or Jeremy. They\'re having their problems too, I\'m sure things will improve all in do time. Italians 1-2-3 again and this time it\'s Loris and Max 1-2, and then Vale. All in the 1.59\'s, times are getting too quick these days.
Expecting some rain tommorrow, I sure in the hell hope not. The weather was very nice today, clear skies with a small breeze. After the race, Sunday we are heading to the World Championship SuperMoto in Belgium. It\'s on the way back to Austria so we figured we check it out. Then on to Austria.
I leave you some pics of today. Another one of the front straight and alot of spectators today. The umbrella girls here are amazon!!! They are so tall, it\'s crazy. Not saying anything wrong, but I\'ve never seen 6ft2 blondes, average height.
Here\'s another pic of a tv in which has intermediates on it.[Sorry, can`t show pics but they are on - HOPPER`S WEBSITE: ] It shows every rider, at certain sections of the track. That way, we know where any rider is on the track, we know who\'s going the fastest by the color of the helmet, and who\'s behind who. So if you\'ve never seen this on the Motogp website or on tv, this is what we stare at. There are other channels that show top speed, placing from 1-18, ect.... But this one is better to watch.
Catch up tomorrow.
Des.
