    It seems at the moment with day 2 testing complete the Moto GP bikes lap
    nearly 4 seconds faster than the WSB at Qatar.

    Corser lapped a 2.01.244

    Capirossi lapped a 1.57.69

    MGP times are possibly going to improve on day 3.

    Dunno what I expected but the gap is larger than I would have thought.

    rain washes away the rubber that is laid down on the "line" More rubber down
    the faster the track is.
    The MGP bikes were way faster than last year due to that fact
