Got the PVR all setup, can't wait to see the race. Qatar was a great start to the season. Biaggi made the last lap a memorable one. When I heard that Baylis had a broken collarbone I expected he wouldn't do too well but to see him sitting in second place in qualifying is quite a surprise. Race distance might prove to be a different matter though.
