Casey Stoner was quickest once again in damp and miserable conditions. Rizla Suzuki's Chris Vermeulen was the only man to get close, though still over half a second down. Valentino Rossi was well off the pace for much of the session, only leaping into the top 5 in the last few minutes of the session.
The Michelins continue to struggle. First Michelin rider is Dani Pedrosa in 8th, and Michelin shod men are propping up the bottom of the table.
