Edwards on pole

Colin Edwards has taken pole position in the Moto GP of England.

He whas quicker that his team mate Valentino Rossi and Dani Pedrosa.
Edwards is strugling to survive in the yamaha team.
And this pole make`s it easyer for Edwards.

I agree on that simon.
He will have to do a hell of a lot better than that.

What a great driver that Rossi.

But in the wet it would have been a completly different race.
But they hat luck all the way on a sunny Assen circuit.
And Edwards ........I don`t know if he will be in the moto GP next year.
My gues is that he will return to the superbike`s.

Well , Mister Rossi wont be to happy with the way this race has run for him.
This well could be the turn arround in the championship.
I personnely think`s he lost the championship on the sachsenring.

Ok, what did happen, because i didn't saw anything of the race....

Did Stoner win again and did Rossi have some problems?

Rossi`s front wheel slid away from under him in a real tide corner where he made an move to overtake a other rider.
He ran a bit wide an rossi realy drove the corner by the white inner line so the speak.
And his front tyre could handle it,even the slide ocured in realy lowe speed he could not continue the race.
That whas won by Pedrosa with Capirossi in second for Nicky Haiden and Colin Edwards in fourth place.
 
Go Casey Go :) Really stunning to see what a progress he made from last year to now... Last year he was spending more time in the graveltraps then on the track and now he's really running for the championship!

Stoner fastest in free practice

Casey Stoner whas fastest in the free practice in Laguna Seca.

In the first 30 minutes Rossi whas the fastest.
Then came Stoner and whas not to be beaten.
After that Melandri and Edwards drove the 2th and 3th fastest time.
This whas just before Alex Hofman whas torpedo`d by Sylvain Guintoli.
The frenchmen whas way to fast for the corkcrew and crasht into Alex.

Hofman who broke his hand in this crash.
Alex whas taken to the medical centre on the circuit and later transported to a hospital in San Francisco where he whas operated.
This after a accident in is home GP where he got stuck between his car door with his other hand.

There is a rumour that his place will be taken by Chaz Davies for the time being.
