Sachsenring has been amazing, the track is huge and the bikes are really close. The track is hilly, the VIP facilities are sooooo good and the Germans are a crazy bunch! (in a good way) We can't speak the language but we have so many new BFF's. We are sharing a table with some crazy Scots we met in Assen and our table is strewn with Scottish and Australian flags. Casey poled first! We had a bet before qualifying and I picked 1. Stoner 2. Lorenzo and 3. Spies. Did I get laughed at! At the beginning of qualifying, the Scots kept saying ha ha - where's Spies? Anyway needless to say, even though Lorenzo didn't get 2nd, I won!!! The racing for the day finished at 5, the corporate facilities finished at 6 and we left the track at 10. We went to a Ducati Party (in the track). It took us a long time to get there because parties had to be had along the way! We had two Bavarian guys in their leather pants doing their pants slapping dance for us. They wanted one of our flags so they had to work for it. Another bunch ended up buying Schnapps we spent about an hour with them and the conversation went like this - Casey Stoner - Yeah (drinks) Mick Doohan - Yeah (drinks) Valentino Rossi - Yeah (drinks) ,,,and so on. You had to be there. The whole place was thumping with live bands, entertainment, fire works, and everyone was well behaved and happy and we saw no trouble. It made Assen look a bit tame. Anyway, we eventually got home. I love my boys.
Friday was a scorching hot day. We walked around the track which took us up and down and at places we were so close to the bikes. Then it belted down with rain and we got drenched but luckily it wasn't cold. We ended up buying umbrellas it was that bad. We needed the umbrellas again for qualifying yesterday. We sat in the stand for most of it until we were completely drenched and then headed inside to the VIP to watch the rest in comfort (it's a hard life). The day fined up again and it stayed good for the rest of the day.
I started typing this is 6am because we actually had internet access so now Its time for a shower and breakfast and head back to the track. GO CASEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
