Ben Spies is doing really well on the new bike:)

To be honestly, lap times alone is a very bad indication of actual race pace especially during pre-season testing; but Honda will be strong. The thing is everyone know VR will not be 100% probably for the 1st quarter of the season, which everyone will try to capitalize on that. Whoever didn’t crash out trying to gap Rossi, those will have a great jump on the championship.

very true. i like to compare the times to last years qualifying times, it gives a better indication of pace.
