FWIW: SBK and F1 are driving a very early post of the BR&TMR Saturday edition.
Melandri is on top of Q1 but a wise gambler would hedge their bets for Superpole. I have not had a lot of time to dig through the numbers but Lucy there's a lot a sandbaging going on.
Speed is king at Monza and a front row start may mean more than usual in a very tight field. Dig into Friday's times and comments and you will find a good deal of time spent setting up for R1&2. The big guns get uncorked tomorrow.
Melandri has had another week to recover. Over the Assen weekend his stammina seemed much improved compared to Portimao. Monza will be a real test of his physical recovery.
Davies is the designated whinner for the team it seems. Friday and early Saturdayhe appears to be tasked to ride the setup test mule for the Goldbet Team. We should see him improve in Superpole. He needs to after the Assen Round.
Aprilia scares me. Hodna is an illusion. KRT!!! Suzuki the tough street kid. Then there is DucAudi. Checa is a hero in Italy but is astride a lackluster bike for this venue and so far this season.
F1 ? Tyres ? Alonso ? Tyres ? Strategy. Look for some serious crashes that will impact the race on Sunday.

WSBK - 1st Q Review
With four rounds completed the WSBK season is a little over a quarter of the way through the season calendar. The teams head into the meat of the season with the Donington round the last weekend in May. This seems like a good time to check themes and the standings.
APRILIA 172 pts. +64 pts over 2012, 11 Podiums
The speculation of 2013 being a rebuilding season or the first in a dynastic string favors the latter. Of the maximum possible of 200 Aprilia has scored 172 points. They have occupied 11 of a possible 24 podium slots (sweeping the opening podium *at PI). As a result they are an impressive 64 points ahead of where they were in the 2012 championship season for them. The factory team riders occupy P1 and 2 in the rider standings, though not in the order I might have expected.
Aprilia fans may be quietly calculating the magic number for clinching the Manufacturer?s Championship but it is far too early for that. Yes it is possible that they could be putting together a juggernaut season along the lines of Checa/Ducati in 2011. What is more likely is they will be confronted with problems they need to overcome.
To date their riders have not suffered serious injuries. Racing at this level is becoming more and more dangerous. If, when, how and how fast riders can recover from an accident could play a role in derail a title run. (BMW learned that in 2012). I do not wish problems for any of the riders. I would rather defeat a healthy opponent than a wounded one. If they do have problems how the riders and team deal with them will be critical.
The Aprilia machine is the front runner on race day; so far. Monza suggest they don?t hold that by much. The heat is on.
BMW 144 pts. +48, 6 podiums
Judgement was the theme for the season preview. Die hard Roundel fans may think the questions have been answered. School is still out on that question for me. Let?s set that aside for now. BMW Italia has suffered many setbacks in Q1, dealt with them and hold P2 in the Manufacturer?s hunt and their riders in P4 and 5 in the rider standings.
The *S1000RR v2.13 continues to improve from the very strong v2.12. No it is not the Superpole wonder of Team Green. That is Saturday business. On Sunday it is going toe to toe with everyone.
Riders are coming off some problems. Checa?s racing crash that took out Melandri in P.I. Race 1 echoed over the next races. Melandri appeared to fade over a race weekend until Monza where he paced himself into a P1 and P2 for the weekend effort. Davies picked up the slack for an ailing Melandri with a P2 in the Rider hunt after Aragon. As the Monza weekend started I dubbed him the teams designated whiner. A bit harsh sounding but that is the role of a team number 2. He spent the Monza weekend dueling in from the lead of the second pack of riders on the track. He was slowly reeling in Sykes just before his crash in Race 2. Catching and passing are two different things.
Dipping into the stick and ball cliche bag; championship seasons are built a game at a time over the length of the calendar. BMW has 48 points in hand over 2012. If they had them after Magny Cours last season they would be defending champs this season. Could they be in a better spot now: yes. However, their standing right now is pretty good and one that definitely a solid base to build on.
Kawasaki 130 pts. +32.5 pts., 6 podiums
KRT is on the cusp of putting it all together. Sykes continues to rack up Superpoles. He and the bike are fast and now they are figuring race tyre management out. Sykes is P3 in the Rider?s hunt. While Sykes is a serious contender for the Rider?s title is KRT a contender for the Manufacturer?s title? The answer to that is in the hands of Loris Baz, KRT?s designated whiner...number 2.
The Rider Championship is great but I am rooting for a Manufacturer?s title. The combination of Sykes and Baz are a pesky duo for the BMW riders to deal with, but not as pesky as the non factory Aprilia riders. Baz is improving. Melandri/Davies is a better team than Sykes/Baz in the Manufacture hunt for my money.
Honda 78 pts +4, 1 Podium
PATA Honda is struggling. The CBR is not what it once was. While others are finding ways to improve one has a sense that Honda is struggling just to hang on in 2013 WSBK season.
Suzuki 68 pts. +47.5, 0 Podiums
If Honda is just hanging on, Suzuki is coming back. On the street Suzuki may make news for sales decreases, dealer closings etc as they roll out their new corporate direction that emphasises their motorcycle roots. On the WSBK track they are becoming the journeyman team people should not ignore. P6 in the 2012 Standings looking for a P4 finish in 2013 is what I expect.
Ducati -88.5, 0 Podiums
Fortunately I have run out of time to write. Fortunate not because I have so much to say about DucAudi?s situation; rather, I don?t have the time needed to figure out what that is and what to say. Ducati won something on the order of 60% of the WSBK races ever held. DucAudi is obviously a duc of a different feather.
