    Stoner
    Hayden
    Pedrosa
    Hopkins
    DePuniet
    Rossi

    Can Hayden challenge Stoner? Will the Michelins have the race distance on
    the Bridgstones? I still pick Stoner on top, but hope that Hayden can make
    it interesting. Hopkins and DePuniet will fade, Rossi will probably be
    there in front of Pedrosa. Should be a good race.

    Guintolli's damage to Edwards chance on the Tech 3 team next year????

    It's looking like a Stoner day on Sunday but as we have seen before
    the Stones have faded on race day so it's never black and white but
    assuming all tyres last the race distance then Stoner seems to be the
    best bet, it's the other podiums that beg the question and very hard
    to pick, I'm gambling on a Stones 1,2,3....Stoner, Capex, Hoppers with
    a Hayden, Pedrosa, Rossi trio battling for the 4th spot.

    I tend to agree with your predictions for race results. Stoner is a
    definite top step, and I'd pick one more Bridgestone on the podium.
    Not sure if it'll be Capirex or Hopper. Again, if the tires hold up
    til the end, I'd put Rossi on the podium, perhaps with a late race
    battle between Hayden, Pedrosa, and a Bridgestone runner. Rossi tends
    to have the consistent lap times and tire wear control to come into
    the race later when the quick guys start falling off at the end. i.e.
    Hopper.

    I'll really be watching Hayden close. He has been about 1.0 - 1.5
    seconds from the top of the time sheets in all the practice sessions
    so far, but is showing some consistency. He was looking great until
    Laguna. If the tires don't go too soon, I'd put him in the top five. I
    heard Repsol has new parts, but I haven't been able to watch any more
    videos from motogp.com. anyone know what parts they have and if they
    are using them for the race or just to test afterwards??
