MotoGP - Qatar

[garth]

MotoGP is back

Coverage from 3pm this afternoon.

Predictions?

[lihp]

Marquez
Rossi
Lorenzo
Pedrosa

Is my top 4 guess.

[P.]

[Llama-Farmer]

Aleix Espargaro for a podium I think. Winter testing proved surprising.

[lihp]

Yes, but equally surprising for Rossi too.

As good as it would be for Asparagus to get on the podium, do you think he will run the race quicker than at least 3 of, Rossi, Lorenzo, Marquez, Pedrosa or Bautista? As I think those are going to be top 5.

Don't think Asparagus will beat 3 of the above list

[UnknownStuntm...]

Marquez will come out and dust everyone. Or fall off, he's due for one of them about now.

Pedro, Rossi and Lorenslo to fight for a while until the Honda dominates again. I reckon they've kept a bit in reserve in testing and are going to unleash the beast.

what channel is it on
I just checked Eurosport 1&2 and no MotoGP listed, hope I don't need to watch it on BBC2
I don't like the comentators (esp the aussie guy)

Well that was a bit upside down, Lorenzo looking most unhappy. Asparagus A fastest by a lot, could be interesting.

[garth]

Smith looking good. Aleix to qualify front row I reckon, but to tail off in the race.

[Wafer_Thin_Ham]

[Al]

Are the open class bikes using their special super soft tyres at Qatar?
They were saying they wouldn't last/work at all the tracks.

Held out as long as I could - but I knew that there was no way I could resist the attraction of 'live' GP!

Subscribed to the Moto GP website so I can stream it to my pc.

Was dubious - (but desperate)

WTF is going on? Factory bikes 5th / 11th?

[Howling Terror]

Random pic of Bradl's front tyre asking for mercy.

Bit of a topsy-turvy start to proceedings. Could be fun.

Heavy rain has left the track like this.

Marbles everywhere and race control dictates that sweepers cannot be used.

[edit]
They've seen sense.

Track conditions look shit, should be interesting, wouldn't fancy being on a Moto3 never mind a Moto GP, 2 off already in first 5 minutes of Moto3.
