Would be nice to see honda drop pedrosa and pick up bradl. I think he could really push the big guys and give them a run for their money.

Yeah, I agree with dropping Pedrosa. He's good, but this is his 9th year at Repsol and his career there has been lackluster. He needs to go somewhere and develop a bike and have some sort of legacy. He's not going to win a WC (and yes, I know he's been runner up a few times and always a fast contender).

I think his best opportunity to win is behind him now.

CBS is getting it? I did see where FS1 would air a rerun on Thursday...


I'm wondering why its been downplayed...


Cal was p2 in fp3, this could be interesting. Rossi is p9.... Seems like the racing will be better this year. Although, there was this Spanish kid, can't think of his name, who was p1 again.

I'm wondering why the Ducs aren't where they were in the test...Dovi seemed to have that on lock...

yes its on the cbs sports channel, unfortunately its on my tv listing, but i need to buy a damn sports package to be able to watch it

definitely hoping for some better racing in the gp class this year. Last season i ended up watching moto2/3 alot more.

hmm, looks like FS1 is playing the gp race tomorrow evening, then moto2/3 real early wednesday morning.

Haha I posted about Dovi and Iannone not being on top after p3, but it looks like I spoke too soon! And the fastest Yamaha is down in p8.....

Well I hope you get it and watch it, looks to be like a good race.
