Still a bit of the pace but very good to see the top 19 split by just over 1.5 seconds. Hopefully it will make some close racing this season.

Scott Redding is a very stylish rider

You can see how tiny the 2015 RCV is in this shot with Dani Pedrosa on the bike.

Final day of testing cancelled due to rain in the Qatar desert

Why not....it rains everywhere.

wow that looks small and he is a midget

Yes my thoughts exactly

Cal, Bradley and Scot all within two tenths. Going to be a good year for British fans.

There was mention of no rain kit, hence the cancellation

Rossi starts his 20th season in motogp today.

How good would it be if he could lift his 10th title in the same season.
