De puniet and Pedrosa bothed binned it today in the wet at turn 1. Both unhurt, and Casey binned it at 11! ....Oh he's OK too apparently!

Roberts is riding for team roberts...now im confused....is that team roberts SR proton or woteva they using?? or is he still riding for Suzuki??

didnt see Vermuelan on the list..so is roberts still with Suzuki or is Hopkins the other rider??

[aardvark]

Roberts is riding for what used to be KR-Proton. KR standing for Kenny Roberts, as in Kenny Roberts Snr. Team Roberts as they are now known are using their own frame and a Honda engine.

Hopkins and Vermulean are riding the Suzukis.

Factory Yamaha and Suzuki are not testing at PI this week. Thats why their times are not up.

Was wondering who nakkers was on the KSRC banner. Now I know Not right into motogp but have an interest.

[kempy]

His best time was done on a qualifing tyre though. Don't know about the other lot. Thing is, that time is still about what, .8 of a sec off last years pole.

But yeah, good stuff by Nakano, that dude kicks arse.
