...And The Lights ...


...GO ON!! ......Toseland shines brighter than all the luminaires, `cos it was his night at Losail, for over 30 minutes he not only had pole, but the track record as well!! Only another rookie, Lorenzo, was faster, and we are talking microseconds here! Both riders were on Yamahas, and quallie Michelins, so the race will be different, however, a little more good fortune, could see a podium, which, with the history of failed Superbike riders who have moved into the GP class, would on its own be a helluva achievement. It is the debut MotoGP for both these guys, and they are trailed by 3 world champions including the current one, fan..fucking..tastic!!


Another great achievement was in the 125cc class with another englishman, Bradley Smith, taking pole, they all said the track changed as the night wears on, with significant track temperature changes, and a heavy dew, so an inspired strategy by Toselands team to place him on track, with a quali tyre, prior to these changes, was crucial as his, and Lorenzo`s lap times reveal. The race is on!!..... around 8pm uk time......Yea Baby!!!
