Free practice or not, 7 Ducatis in the top 8 is an abnormal number. Bulega's speed is real. But the main race is a different animal, everyone in the pits knows that. What happens from here on decides it.

Bulega's riding great this season, could he take Britain too at this rate?

Painful to watch Rea struggle on the Honda, this from the man who won 6 in a row.

Rea just picked the wrong bike, if only he'd stayed with Kawasaki...

Ducati dominance is boring, time for the regs to rein them in.

Rea in 11th on the Honda... guess the switch really was a failure.

7 out of the top 8 being Ducatis is way too dominant, the Panigale's just too strong.

7 bikes, even if it varies by session, that's just sheer force of numbers.
