Submitted by David Emmett on Sat, 2009-11-07 12:16.
Casey Stoner continues his domination of proceedings at Valencia, the fastest rider once again in the morning session of MotoGP practice. The Australian topped the timesheets just about all session, with only Jorge Lorenzo to get close. Lorenzo looked to have a firm grip on 2nd, but was bumped down to 3rd by Dani Pedrosa, who put in a blistering lap in the dying minutes of practice. Pedrosa leapfrogged over both Fiat Yamahas, leaving Valentino Rossi down in 4th behind his team mate.
Ben Spies continued his steady improvement, finishing the session in 12th, 1.377 behind Stoner's fastest time. More importantly, the Texan improved his time from yesterday by nearly nine tenths of a second.
