I know it is not mx but just checked the lap times from the sepang test and he posted the 9th fastes lap time with only 0.082 sec of rossi, 0.260sec of marquez and 1.008 sec of the fastes lap.

the guy hasn't even touched a gp bike for a year and is retired for several years now.
I'm kind of shocked.

Casey actually did development work for Honda last year until they wouldn't let him fill in for Pedrosa. That burned that bridge so now back on the Ducati and looking good.

I think you'll see him wildcard at least one race this year... especially if one of the Ducati boys becomes injured.

I think Phillip Island is a no brainer but he said on GpExtra that there is still no plan to get back on the grid full time. It would be great if he changed his mind though.

I was hoping that he may give COTA a try since it is a new venue for him. I'll bet Ducati is waving the wallet at him though. Good to see him on the timesheets again. Danilo Petrucci is the surprise of the test. Crazy.

2016 is going to be the best year yet. The ECUs are locked, and the tires are shit Michelins. The cream will rise to the top, and the spanish midget mafia will be left floundering.

Reefer, Go check out the blow out that Loriz Baz had. funny you made that Michelin comment. I guarantee that's what Baz was thinking.

They pulled the soft tire allocation after that. Petro's time was set on soft tires while most were posted on normal rubber.

day 3 and final day of testing in sepang is over and he posted the 5th fastes lap and that made him the fastes ducati on the track. lorenzo made everyone look like fools tho. let's hope karma will take care of that.
very impressed with stoner. if he keeps posting the fastes ducati times and is close enough to the no1, we may be in for something special this season.
