No ducati or hondas.
Check out the AMA bad boy in 3rd!
Already looks like the Suzuki is going to be the one to beat looking at that little list.
I think Bayliss will be right up his chuff!
Yeah yeah, Suzuki first, WE KNOW 
But look at Foggy Petronas, cor blimey, where the hell did they pull a decent setup from? Their bike is less sorted than my road bike, I bet! Impressive result. Will be interesting to see how it develops.
Steve Martin’s home track.
They’ll be nowhere when the racing starts.
And that’d be unusual 
Ah, yes, of course, should have seen that.
