Qualifying

Yesterday I went to the Qualifying for the races.  Oh, I went on a city tour as well. City tour was nice, seems to be building everywhere around here. Saw the new apartment complex called The Pearl, which will house about 45 000 people and the cheapest apartment goes for half a million US dollars. Nice to see that the two car dealers there were Ferrari and Rolls Royce.  Also saw the horse tracks, including the horse swimming pool. Seems to be a lot of money in that business. Then it was time for the races.  Checked in to the VIP facilities and got a beer and started watching the free practice.  Went for some pictures on the balcony by the pits. The GP bikes are insanely loud I realized, and really really fast.  My camera was a bit too slow unfortunately.  Met the Norwegian 125cc rider Sturla just before the qualifying, actually got to speak to his parents for a while during the Moto2 qualifying.  Really fun to see a guy from almost home doing well. He qualified at 16 position so hopefully he will get some points to night. Now it is time fore some relaxing bu the pool.

Rossi goes to  the pit.
