What is the point of a night race if you are floodlighting the whole thing so it is just as it would be in day?

Any they don't have any headlights ...

Glad to see JT in the top 5. Not expecting any miracles but its nice to see him doing the job.

Melandri is going to be under a bit of pressure if he is that far down the grid all the time

melandri is far too inconsistent to put anything together on the ducati I think he will be struggling to get a ride in the gp grid within the next 2 yrs.
