Thumbs up MotoGP round 3 Estoril 05/01/11 *SPOILERS*

This is supposed to be round 4, but the Tsunami in Japan altered the schedule a little...So...................

--Lorenzo got his first win last race thanks to everyone else crashing out
--Stoner is still the man to beat
--Pedrosa has had time for his shoulder to feel better, mayble he'll score a "W"
--Rossi knows he screwed up last race..That usually motivates him to whoop ass
--Hayden got himself a podium!! (with a 10th place performance)
--Spies is still on the outside looking in of a podium
--Simoncelli and Dovi are looking good, but not a whole race good

Your thoughts?

Hayden always gets better results in the rain; he's more comfortable with low traction than pretty much anyone else.

The Duc still isn't quite ready for primetime, though, so I'll guess:
1: Stoner
2: Lorenzo
3: Pedrosa
4: Rossi or Spies, longshot for Dovi
5 and 6: the other two from 4 above
7: Hayden
8+: everyone else

He definitely got his money out of the rain tire last race...

The forecast is for a wet race, but FP1 appears to have been dry...
