Are they testing the 3rd commentator in FP3 out as a Nick replacement? Didn't catch the beginning of the session and curious who the hell this dude is.

Edit: It's van der Mark! Dude sounds super goofy.

Dani knows how shitty the Michelins are outside their operating temp range

Worse than a 500 two-stroke off the power band ...

Old man Rossi makes it into Q2 from FP3 with the gimp leg. That's fucking impressive.

 

[NSR500]

Decent FP3; Rossi makes it to QP2!

Fancy a tow?
FP2

Borenzo can't catch a break. Lost a puck and had to swap leathers meaning he missed a chunk of FP3.

 

[SuperMike]

Jeez KTM, give the guy a seat for real!

 

[NSR500]

Agreed.

He's proving that KTM has speed. Bradders should get kicked down to test rider.

I heard them mention that, but all those pucks are Velcroed on, I thought?

[RightCoastBias]

I'm out in Macau with shitty service, can't get any timing or video to load!

Anyone have updates for me on Q2?!

 

[phocup]

Wow. Unbelievable the old man almost got pole with 1 good leg.

 

[RightCoastBias]

Hot damn, just saw the results. Total mix up from was expected. Amazed to see Rossi qual 3rd and he definitely stomped down any idea i had MVDM should have been out there.

Surprised to see Dovi and MM so low in qualifying. Might have a good show tomorrow.

Fucking Rossi! Can't imagine how he is going to go the distance tomorrow. Anyone study his Q4 laps?

Like our favorite announcer always says "count him out At. Your. Perill."

Rossi did two runs in FP4 for a total of 13 laps (10 not counting in/out laps) so he didn't do a long run but there is no counting him out for pain or fatigue or any reason.

Joe Roberts still not finding speed in dry conditions qualifying 31st. The commentators pointed out on Friday that Roberts had stated his CEV bike handles better than this bike. Roberts always gains positions on race day so here's hoping tomorrow is better.

Julian Ryder says that he has heard "whisperettes" about KTM having a lock on Marquee Marc after his contract with Honda expires at the end of 2018.

Dovi was absent, but MM was the pole leader until he crashed on his final hit lap. He probably would have been on the front row had he completed the lap. He’ll probably still going to run at the front if he can keep it out of the kitty litter.
