What has happened to the GOAT? :-? Hayden's qualified in 3rd in the dry, Rossi's in 13th FFS, 2.4s behind (yes, two point four seconds, a lifetime away at this level) and DePuniet has qualified the top CRT bike in 10th. Even Marquez is only 0.046s slower than Rossi on Moto2 pole, on a 600 with nothing like the power or electronic sophistication of the prototype bikes.
Top work by Cal Crutchlow qualifying 4th and often topping the pile before Lorenzo, Pedrosa and Hayden pulled their collective fingers out in the final frenzy. Shame it didn't piss down as they expected with 24 minutes to go when Cal had just regained top spot...
A deluge is all that Rossi can hope for tomorrow, the excuses will start to wear a bit thin soon and how long is it before the Italian press turn on him? :-/
Would Roxy care to comment on her idol's lack of form?
