Thumbs up MotoGP round 2 Jerez 04/03/11 *SPOILERS*

Here we go...
--Casey has made it clear that if he stays upright, he's the one to beat this year
--Lorenzo showed he has every intention of not going quietly
--Pedrosa's previous clavicle surgery is compressing a vessel, and he'll have another surgery after this race
--Rossi is struggling to figure out the Duc
--Spies did well in race 1, still not an alien
--Dovizioso looks like he might make some noise
--Simoncelli - see above
--Edwards finished in front of Hayden!!
--Hayden just keeps going backwards
--Elias went to Moto2, won a championship, came back, and is again a back marker

Your thoughts?

This track does not have any long straights, so hopefully we won't see anyone (other than the aliens) break away from the pack...

The Ducati is a basket case of a bike....it's a testament to Stacy Moaner's skill that he was able to win races on it. Don't expect much from Rossi at Jerez.

Provided that Moaner comes to grips with the fact that he doesn't HAVE to ride right at the limit all the time to win, he'll likely be the man to beat this season. Having said that, though....he hasn't figured that out in his entire career....He chucks it down the tarmac FAR too often for a rider of his experience and talent level.

Honestly, though....I'm far more excited about the prospect of watching a full 38 bike grid take to the tight and twisty Jerez circuit on spec bikes in Moto2...THAT is racing!!

Andrea Iannone....write it down...that kid has a future!
