Well, one thing leads to another, and things got very busy in the afternoon. While I was trying to write the second photo essay of the French MotoGP, specially the Fiat Yamaha team  autograph signing by Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo, the team twisted my arm, and forced me to go on the circuit to follow the time trials.
I sputtered, stating that I thought I really needed to finish the 2nd article, but no.. so unwillingly I went to the track (if you believe that, I've got some cheap bridge for sale in San Francisco or some prime real estate in Florida).
Since I've a guest of the Fiat Yamaha team , I decided to only show photos of the two main players. The others can wait until I have time to breath again.
So, with little comments, here are some of the photos of the track.
NOTE: After all data has loaded, when you click on one of the photos, a new window opens with a bigger version of that photo, but make sure everything has loaded first.
I particularly like this one, since it's so Le Mans...
Nothing to do... thankfully.
Notice that the stands are pretty full, which is not bad for the Friday sessions, so you can only imagine what it's going to be like during the weekend.
Can Jorge get ANY lower?
A stand with some disappointed fans...
After the official press conferences, the riders did their own, individual, press conferences, some of them one-on-one in a small office. Here's Jorge Lorenzo's conference.
And Valentino Rossi's conference.
That's it from me for today. Signing off so that I can prepare more stuff for you tomorrow.
On another note, did you know that Jorge Lorenzo is very, and I mean VERY, active in Twitter. He tweets himself, and you can see him on his phone the whole day writing what he's doing.
If you've got twitter, head over to Jorge Lorenzo's Twitter Account .
