Present in the giant media centre that houses those covering the action at Laguna Seca was reigning World Champion Valentino Rossi, flanked by Andrea Dovizioso, Chris Vermeulen and home riders Colin Edwards and Nicky Hayden. All were happy to share their thoughts ahead of Friday’s opening practice session.

“I like American jet lag,” said Fiat Yamaha man Rossi, renowned for his aversion to early starts. “In the mornings here I am in much better shape than in Italy, for example!”  …  Details
