Big difference in these four time
1. Marco Melandri ITA Fortuna Honda 2min 2.95 secs
2. Nicky Hayden USA Repsol Honda Team 2min 3.2 secs
3. Carlos Checa SPA Honda Pons 2min 3.58 secs
4. Dani Pedrosa SPA Repsol Honda Team 2min 3.75 secs

Like I see Melandri seem to got a nice advance.

Sweet. Thanks.

Have been amassing copies of each of the GP races, which no doubt one day soon I'll get to see.

Valentino Rossi.

He is the best and he can beat the rest.

Gotta say I'm partial to Rossi - and do hope he pulls it off, but little Pedrosa is also a damn good rider too...providing he can start at or near the front. I like the thought of that little dude doing so well hehe

Rossi's always a laugh though, and I think it's great that he doesnt take himself too serious - I mean, did you check out his recent helmet, with his face on it?!! Hilarious trying to watch a race, he's head down....but that face on his helmet is grinning round the track! V. cool!
