Good point mekon, but looking at it another way, is it really so many under-performing at the same time or is it MM taking it off the scale? |

No matter who takes it to MM and wins a race or two, MM will still mangage 2nd. Can probably get 2nds the rest of the season and still win the WC.
As for Petrux and Cal, they seem a long way off. Dovi will bounce back.

I think Petrux was a mistake for Ducati. People go on about Lorenzo's mindset but I don't think Petrucci has got the killer instinct. Wasn't the first thing he said after winning something about supporting Dovi for the rest of the season. Look how Lorenzo wouldn't support Dovi and said so (even when he wasn't that fast)....MAPPING 8!
Crutchlow is showing signs of checking out as well. That interview at Silverstone seemed to be the first chinks in the armour and thinking about retirement and now he's moaning about the bike all the time.

Didn't he say that he was going to be able to relax more from here on due to his points buffer?
This guy does not know how to relax!
He is also lapping over 4 seconds faster than last place rider (guess who...).
At that pace, and considering 23 laps in the race, MM would only be around 10 seconds off lapping JL...

Without looking I'm going to guess JL  |

Even tough I was joking, I have just looked at the FP1 results and I assumed that Bradders would be last, not 0.5s+ ahead of JL.

Quite funny after FP1 riders literally shaking their heads in the pits. It must be hard to keep fighting the brave fight when MM is clearly an alien among aliens.

Anyone think FQ looks a bit like a French version of young Jamezzzzz?
