I can't wait either, been watching it since Friday!

Will be even better in 2 weeks time when i'm in Jerez watching it :laugh:

Race predictions anyone?!

I'm going for Terol in the 125's, Bradl in the Moto 2 and Stoner in the GP. Could also see it ending like that at the end of the season with them 3 winning their respective championships.

Really excited about tonight! Bring on the Honda's!!!!

Owned VFR 400, RVF 400, VTR Firestorm and Blade 1000 and loved them all!!! Such great machines with cracking reliability!

The VFR was my fav back in the day when i were a young lad at 17! So much fun and learnt a lot on them!!!

Quite well to be honest, I knew it was going to happen, he's been flying all winter and all weekend.

Was good to see Bradley Smith do well in the Moto 2 aswell.

Now roll on 2 weeks time in Jerez :laugh:

 It's good to see some MGP fans on the forum. But it might be wise to warn of spoilers in any future posts!

I've just watched and enjoyed all the racing on Sky Plus, although the results were predictable. The saddest bit was watching Elias crashing out of last place. The best bit was the fact that the Hondas didn't have things all their own way and that Rossi was better than I expected. The season may be less boring than it was looking. :happy2:

Yeah Elias can't seem to get on with that bike. Was a shame for Alvaro Bautista too, broke his leg and had surgery today. Being replaced by John Hopkins but it's the 1st time with no Suzuki on the grid for 37years today! They should have a few bikes on the grid every season the size the company is
