Should be interesting 
Been out on my bike today and watched the qualifying in a local bikers cafe. Rain will mean a completely different story. Ducati for out and out power on the straights and slower corner speeds maybe due to the rain?
Down to the rider if it pours for me, let’s hope it’s a classic 
Cruthlow up there again too

Hi All
Seems they've just confirmed it's gonna be a wet race tomorrow and that's if it goes ahead with possible storms etc. I'm kinda thinking qually is going to stand for nothing, more a war of attrition on such a fast track and the power bikes will have most problems. No data on the best wet weather bike / rider combo so early in the season either, predictions anybody?
Best

good win for dovi even with it being as close as last year against mm, well chuffed for cal lets hope he can keep it up throughout the season..rins seems he could be a threat this year but his sit up and beg riding style cracks me up..rossi 14th to 5th..well it was Sunday nothing else to expect, he likes Sundays when the racing hits the Europe tracks I then think mm is going to start getting 1sts agin, the duke of dovi and petruci looks so slow coming out of the corners..overall though a very enjoyable weekends racing in all classes..

Looks like it’s going to be a good year. The pack at the front was very tight and more bikes involved there too. Well done to crutchlow he’s been riding so much better the last couple of seasons not the mad head he was at tech and Ducati he seems to stay on the bike a lot more now days
Great win for dovi carbon copy of last years race Shame the newboy stalled his bike at the warm lap. Great things coming from that kid and only 19 wow.
Rossi did well and came close to a podium. And Marquez still mad for a win on the Honda will come in the next race
And I do like jack miller bet his a great laugh when off camera always positive liked him when he was doing a bit on camera last year
All in all a great start Welcome back MotoGP

Big up for Luthi, after that article on his performance in Moto GP saying he had no place in the sport.
What a ride, he needed 1 more lap and baldasari was done.
Very interesting re Gardner's tyres as well, they just died in the last 2 laps

Very successful rider, but like you say, the Ducati dominated, was a revelation at the time compared to the competition
Just looked at a 1299 today and a 959 
Zx10r and S1000rr yesterday. Think I might get an Aprilia RSV4 this year, sound sublime, what an engine
