Fabrizio Fades ...


Spies has both qualifiers and the Superpole! Well that pretty much increases the odds of a season sweep by Spies. With both Fabrizio and Neukirchner struggling, and Biaggi and the new Aprilia at the front, the podium could very well be Spies first, with Haga and Biaggi fighting for second/third. Biaggi's fast, but Haga is a much stronger rider when fighting for position. After doing so well in both qualifiers, Rea's Superpole attempt put him way back on the grid, so he's not likely to finish at the pointy end of the stick. The front row spoiler is Jakub Smrz (Ducati). If he can make the distance, he could very well keep up and snatch one or both of Biaggi's podium chances. The other rider to watch is Nakano also on a Ducati. Both Aprilia's are putting BMW's efforts to shame. Top bikes at Qatar this year are Ducati, Yamaha and Aprilia.
