Alex Lowes, twin brother to Sam Lowes, was perhaps the quickest learner of The Corkscrew today…some other riders are going to have a think on it.

Chaz Davies was looking fast out there on the Ducati Panigale R. The red bike and red leathers really pop on the track too.

Rizmayer-Corkscrew-save-Laguna-Seca-WSBK-Jensen-Beeler

Rizmayer saved this off-road excursion. I believe the on-track announcers called it an “agricultural endevour” — I just liked the way he made the pebbles go fly. The Corkscrew crowd applauded his efforts, as well.

Very impressed with the pace of Torres this year.

Tom Sykes was a doll, and helped me play with my long panning shots from pit lane.

Sylvain Guintoli coming into the garage during FP2. He would like you to note the #1 plate.

That rear tire is not flat. Physics.

It’s cute when the Brits hangout together…

Canepa blew T2 and had to watch one of the Pedercini riders pass by.

Baiocco-Pit-blur-Laguna-Seca-Jensen-Beeler

I call this one “Where’s Waldo” since Baiocco is sort of lost in the huddle.

Remember that time I told everyone Chaz Davies waved to me because I was all alone at T2 taking photos? Photos taken at the right moment can convey something very different that what actually happened. Always good to remember that.
