Jorge Lorenzo MotoGP Champ 2010?

Following Valentino Rossi’s pace-setting form of Friday, Yamaha team-mate and Champion elect Jorge Lorenzo has registered Saturday morning’s best effort at Malaysia’s Sepang Circuit. Casey Stoner moves up to second for Ducati as Rossi completes the top three, followed by Dovizioso’s Honda and Simoncelli’s Gresini.

With Dani Pedrosa out of action after breaking his collarbone at Motegi, Lorenzo needs only a ninth place in Sunday’s race to seal the title – something he should be more than capable of.
