Go Cal Go
3 Cal Crutchlow Sterilgarda Yamaha 1'42.115
8 James Toseland Sterilgarda Yamaha 1'43.147
So who's the A rider on this team?
Toseland can't be written off after one test
Different tyres, different suspension, different BIKE, a track he's never been to (and which Crutchlow has just spent a whole weekend on) - Toseland's result is not indicative of how he will adapt to the R1. I'm no great fan of JT but I do believe he is a potential top five runner.
Don't lose sight of the fact that he used to be capable of beating Haga - and Bayliss - in head to head battles. He hasn't forgotten how to ride.
Pirro
Is Michele Pirro related to sports car great Emanuele Pirro?
