Well the BMW "qualifying" session was boring. Shame about the weather.

Good to see all the Yamahas have the latest fairing now.

And of course, good to see Toseland fast on race tyres. But still slow
on the straights.

And good to see Hayden fast on qualifiers. Though he still seemed to be
struggling somewhat on race tyres.

What's with the satellite Honda teams? The bikes look like the final
2007 Repsol bikes but there's talking about a "latest" engine. And
strange stuff about how the various Repsol bikes mix and match between
chassis and engine. This bit fits with this bit but not that bit. So how
many chassis and engines are there? And how do you move forward and
develop if they keep changing the chassis and engine?
