Observations....
Equipment
1. Honda/Mich or Brid - Still can't get it right. Love him or hate him, Pedrosa has the talent to make something out of an also-ran package. Same nod goes to Dovi on the stones.
2. Yamaha/Brid or Mich - Possibly the best total package on the Grid. 4 out of the top seven at the finish line.
3. Duc/Brid - Only Nixon could go to China, and only Stoner can make the package work.
4. Suz/Kaw - Welcome to 2008. Evolve or perish. They have top 5 talent. They need top 5 equipment.
Overall I would say the tires were pretty even. The Mich's seemed to fade slightly at half-race distance compared to the Stones/Stoner which were clicking off fastest laps.
