The Tech-3 team will be looking forward to this one. I am too! Out of interest, who was the last Frenchman to win the premier class in France? |

I dont know, but I was at Le Mans in 2007 when it rained and Guintoli and de Puniet both led the race for a while, the crowd loved it.

laconi won one at valencia in 1999 i think on a red bull yamaha. might have been the first time they'd raced there actually. no idea if a french bloke has won his home GP. sarron maybe? isn't vermuelen australian?

Not too sure what to expect from this one....
Zarco could be on the podium I reckon. Should also be a god result for Lorenzo if he really has "clicked" with the Ducati.
My money is on Rossi losing the lead in the championship this weekend though.
In the end, if we don't have a minute's silence I'll be happy.

Yeah, I don't think there'll be much japery on the podium this week. At least not in the premier class.
