Crusty's out with a broken ankle crashing in FP2. Petrucci , Jack and Dovi are up there. Suzuki"s have potential too. Let's see what MV and MM can do here.

Crutchlow would be devastated considering his recent form at the Island. VR has a lot of work to do on set up it seems but loves the place. Who could forget VR running down his time penalty in one of his greatest wins.

MM said front end/front tyre issues giving strange feedback was the cause of the three factory Hondas crashing on Friday. He said he crashed without even pushing hard and backed off after Crutchlow's big crash. He is trying a different/older setting.

MM did great to overcome the front end issue and snap up pole. The kid's a genius. Also great to see four different manufacturers in the first four grid spots. I'll go for a ride in the morning and watch racing in the arvo waytogo

That was an interesting Q2 for sure.  Wink Jackass was hanging it out to dry! My boy stuck it in there for a change.

Sam Lowes had a Randy Mamola "NO, you will NOT highside me" moment at the hayshed in FP3, and was very disappointed that it wasn't caught on video.

Looks like it was a great save. The Hayshed section is an experience and I really liked that section, but getting it wrong must cost badly. I remember pushing the front hard through there but having the back come around on a high powered bike at that speed..
That Mamola footage is classic.
The weather will be a little warmer but still mild tomorrow, about 20-21 of ours. The grip levels change quickly with a cool sea breeze or emerging sunshine. Only raced there once as a novice, but when the wind changed grip dropped substantially. I'll never forget inexplicably drifting out wide over Lukey Heights.

Thankfully a nice sunny day but at midday the air temp is still quite crisp. Come on sun, warm that track!

It’s gonna get hotter in awhile. Wouldn’t mind seeing a new face or 2 on the podium.

Zarco just screwed the pooch and took MM out of race contention.
