And it was worth it to watched because all riders push hard for getting a great place for start the first race of the year.
The consistant result came from the British rider Cal Cructhlow who went very well and confident to able got 2nd position for start the race, and Jorge Lorenzo just proved how strong they are with the Yamaha factory he using for to got the pole position, and for 3rd place to start is Casey Stoner not too far from front row but when we read what the World Champion 2011 said look the result was very bad and worst for him
"I'm not really happy with how qualifying went for us, it should have been a lot better especially on the soft tyre which we hadn't used all weekend. Last night we were happy with what we had improved and with the set up in general. Then tonight we tried to improve that set up and we just made it worse and worse. In the end we did a full circle and came back to what we had on Thursday night and we have huge chattering problems again.
Now we have a lot of work to do to understand what's gone wrong and where the problem is before tomorrow. If we can make a big step forward in warm up then we can challenge for a podium and maybe fight for the win, but if the bike remains as it is at the moment, then we were going to be in for a long hard race".
And the unexpected result came from Stefan Bradl with satelite Honda bike under LCR time made a shocked positive think he can pushed his bike to touch 2nd position after he learned and followed the line of Jorge Lorenzo in QP but finally finished and will start Qatar race from third row, which is it was great result for Rookie and will be fantastic race to riding the bike with the top riders, good achievment.
Nicky hayden since on Jerez test already said The GP 12 is the fastest Ducati he ever ride before and he proved it so well with able to start from 2nd row for the race. And the other Ducati riders from satelite team was touch a great place to start the first race of the season, Hector Barbera for 8th position was means third row anf for Karel Abraham on 10th place.
When we seen the result was said Ducati already fix many problem they have in the last year but seems the Ducati bike not work so well for the nine times world champion Valentino Rossi, nobody can believe the bike only made him start the race from 12th position with gap over than one second from his team mate Nicky Hayden and the gap with the pole position rider for +2.179 and the worst one he only 0.831 second faster than Colin Edward who we all know he only riding CRT bike.
And in the interviewed after the QP the humble rider Valentino Rossi can't speak to much he really didn't expect with only few changes they made the bike out of control and when he returns the setting such as FP, not enough time to him fix the position only improve a bit from the lap time.
I do understand when it make him hard to face the race, he really don't have idea how the bike will going for the race but Valentino Rossi still Valentino Rossi even he face the hard things in front of him he still have way to make some spirit and he said he will trying to look setup from Nicky bike and do some modification or maybe will following him, we will see.
For me this think what we call true warrior, with all difficulties are always trying to find a way, not putting difficult as an excuse. Be ready Valentino Rossi we all know it's hard moment for us but hope when you know we're still here to support you can help to make it more easy for you to pass through.
