MotoGP Valencia: 'I'd have been happier with 1200cc' - Hayden
Hayden is relishing a return to smoking rear tyres...
Marlboro Ducati's Nicky Hayden will not be shedding any tears when he says goodbye to the 800cc era on Sunday night at the Valencia MotoGP finale, half-joking he would have preferred a step straight up to 1200cc bikes which echoes the thoughts of fellow American Colin Edwards.
The 2006 world champion has had a rough time in the 800cc era, having to cope with a bike that won't let him ride the way he wants so a return to 1000cc power is a boon for the Kentuckian. He wouldn't, however, be drawn on whether he will be using a full aluminium frame when testing commences on Tuesday, saying: "I'm just riding, I let the guys in the garage look after the technical stuff."
"I'm not going to be sad on Sunday night when they're gone. I would have been happier if they has just moved to 1200s instead of 1000s but truthfully, I am looking forward to the weekend. The last couple of races we haven't really got a result on Sunday but the gap to the front has been closer, especially in Japan and Malaysia, than it has been all year," said Hayden, speaking to bikesportnews.com.
"On Monday, Filippo (Preziosi, technical director) is going to give everyone the rundown on all the technical stuff we're testing but I'm looking forward to trying new bikes and Bridgestone have got new tyres."

MotoGP Valencia: Bautista grabs top spot; Rossi slips to seventh
Bautista raised a few eyebrows with his performance in second practice
Rizla Suzuki's Alvaro Bautista has turned the MotoGP timesheet on its head in the wet second free practice session at Valencia this afternoon, setting the fastest lap ahead of Nicky Hayden while Randy De Puniet also raised a few eyebrows with consistent pace, topping his runs off with a lap good enough for third place.
Bautista staked his claim for top spot early on but then slipped down the order before bouncing back up to fourth, then taking the lead with ten minutes to go and then making sure of his top spot with a 1'47.975 to be the only rider under the 1'48 barrier.
Hayden, meanwhile, led a Ducati charge which had Karel Abraham at the tail in fourth place and a second off the pace before the Czech rider lost the front on some standing water going into turn one with a few minutes remaining.
Monster Yamaha's Cal Crutchlow was fifth quickest on a 1'49.350 with Andrea Dovizioso the first of the usual suspects down in sixth place, one ahead of Valentino Rosso who will be wondering from where Marlboro Ducati team-mate Hayden, and the satellite Demsosecidi riders, have got their pace in the rain.
This morning's quickest man, Casey Stoner, is languishing in eighth place, 1.7s slower than Bautista and one place ahead of the final Repsol bike of Dani Pedrosa. AMA Champion Josh Hayes placed tenth as the chequered flag was shown, further confounding the paddock. The Monster Yamaha stand-in didn't pit in at all during FP1 and then did so only once in FP2...
Jorge Lorenzo's stand-in Kats Nakasuga finished in 11th place with Loris Capirossi and Hector Barbera right behind. Ben Spies had the same crash at Abraham into turn one halfway through the session while Hiro Aoyama and Toni Elias finished the list of crashers.

Kennedy joins Mar-Train for 2012 British Supersport campaign
Kennedy on board the Mar-Train bike at Bishopscourt
Former Appleyard Yamaha rider Jack Kennedy has signed for the Mar-Train team for a full-on assault on the British Supersport Championship in 2012.
The Irishman rode for the squad at the Sunflower Trophy and reckons he made his mind up there and then. He will be back on a Yamaha R6 next season and hopes to improve on the seven podiums he achieved in an injury-strewn 2011.
"I’m delighted to get it all sorted and I’m very excited at the prospect of working with the Mar-train team. I rode for them at the recent Sunflower Trophy Races at Bishopscourt and that pretty much made my mind up. It was a clear decision," said Kennedy.
"There were three defining factors: I’ll be riding a Yamaha again; Andy Jamison will be my crew chief and in the meetings I’ve already had with Tim – anything the bike needs it will get. They are a new team in the paddock but our goal is to win the championship; that’s the plan.”

MotoGP Valencia: Stoner heads first wet session; Rossi third
Stoner was quickest in the tricky conditions at Valencia
Repsol Honda's Casey Stoner has set the fastest time in this morning's opening MotoGP free practice session in wet conditions at Valencia which allowed nine-time world champion Valentino Rossi to bag second place until the dying second when he was shuffled back by Dani Pedrosa.
The heavens opened early on and Stoner mastered the conditions to go a quarter of second faster than team-mate Pedrosa on a 1'45.513 while Marlboro Ducati's Rossi was only another tenth further back with a 1'45.828.
Bologna team-mate Nicky Hayden, who had led the session more than once, was eventually shuffled back to fourth while Loris Capirossi's experience meant he could make the best of tricky conditions and put his #58 Pramac Ducati in fifth, one place ahead of the injured Ben Spies who is three quarters of a second in arrears.
A late lap by Randy De Puniet on the second Pramac bike saw him hop up to fourth briefly before sliding back to seventh. He was on place ahead of Toni Elias who topped the timesheet with 10 minutes to go. Andrea Dovizioso is ninth and Britain's Cal Crutchlow completes the top ten but is only a second off the pace.
MotoGP debut rider Josh Hayes, who is replacing Colin Edwards at Monster Yamaha, is in 15th place on a 1'48.037 and one place ahead of the Factory Yamaha of Kats Nakasuga who is four tenths slower than the two-time AMA Superbike Champion.

MotoGP Valencia: FTR unveil Moto3 challenger
The M311 will be on track later in November
British engineering firm FTR have unveiled their Moto3 World Championship challenger which will make its track debut later this month as interest in the new machine continues to grow.
The M311 has been produced specifically for the HRC-developed, single-cylinder four-stroke motor which will be supplied to the World Championship teams and serviced by Geo Technology of Switzerland.
Armed with the knowledge from three years of Moto2 chassis development, FTR Moto’s Steve Bones believes the Moto3 machine will be a front-runner in what is certain to be a highly competitive series
“We have learnt a lot in the last two years of the Moto2 World Championship and in the previous year’s Spanish Championship races. The M311 prototype features a conventional design to assist with the introduction of the
machine into the inaugural year of the World Championship and is obviously produced in this manner with development firmly in mind," said Bones.
“We’ve also learnt a lot in the last 12 months with the CFD programme and that has helped us react and develop machinery much faster than previous methods of analysis.”

MotoGP Valencia: Stoner criticises Dorna boss over 'bad decisions'
Stoner believes the switch to 800s was a bad idea
Repsol Honda's Casey Stoner has criticised MotoGP ringmaster Carmelo Ezpeleta over the decision to switch from 990cc engines in MotoGP to 800cc ones, adding it isn't the only poor choice the Spaniard has made.
Ezpeleta is head of Dorna, which owns the commerical rights to MotoGP, and works with the FIM, Motorcycle Sport Manufacturers' Association and IRTA to make sure MotoGP happens - but he is also concerned with making money to please owners Bridgepoint.
"He is pushing hard but he's not MSMA. He has pushed hard for a lot of changes that have been very bad, so he hasn't always made the right decisions, 800s are one of them - he is the one that says, 'OK, let's do it'. He was advised by a lot of people that (800s) was the right way to go and now he is pushing with advice from the outside," said Stoner, speaking to bikesportnews.com.
"He is not an engineer and doesn't understand a lot of things. He is going to take advice but what advice is he taking? Having a panel of people wouldn't work very well either, there would be too many feuds. People teaming up against other people, all kinds of things like that. Things were a lot more simple when it was a 500cc two-stroke."

Simoncelli will be remembered in the circuit's name
Marco Simoncelli's memory will be further inked into history with the news that the Misano World circuit will be dedicated to the MotoGP rider who was killed in an accident at Sepang two weeks ago.
The board of Santamonica SpA, which owns the track, took the decision last night to link the track with Simoncelli, who lived only a few kilometres away.
"We owe it to the memory of Sic his family, to the hundreds of thousands of fans who admired the courage and humanity, the many personalities from the sports world and media that gave voice to this true and its popular movement, spontaneous and moving. We are so happy and proud to associate the track with Marco Simoncelli Misano, a champion in sport and in life," said spokesman Luke Colaiacovo.
