It's not often that you say this, but we could really have done with some rain in Barcelona on Sunday.

The clouds were overhead, so everyone was waiting for them to open up, which would really have livened things up, but they never did and we only got a sprinkling of rain towards the end of the race.
So what we were left with was a damp day and Casey Stoner running away with a damp squib of a race.
One thing I had thought we could count on was Marco Simoncelli livening things up from pole position, but it looks like the verbal battering he's taken this week might have broken his spirit.
I thought he'd be charging through the pack, but it was probably a combination of all the flack he's taken and memories of coming off on lap one in Portugal that got to him - so what we got was a mature gentleman probably doing all the right things. But that's not what we want to see.
Learning how to handle the pressure of life at the top is part of growing up, but we don't want a grown-up Simoncelli, we want the wildman - that's what the fans and broadcasters pay their money for.
Stoner scooted off into the lead and never really looked back, pretty much as expected, because his team got their strategy right. They knew he wasn't going to go off like a rocket but that he would be solid later on.
For a while he had Jorge Lorenzo on his coat-tails but his challenge faded away and Stoner had the advantage of a harder rear tyre. He's the class act at the moment and will take some beating.
You have to wonder if Yamaha have anything up their sleeve to help Lorenzo do that. But I think what might possibly make a difference is there might be some circuits coming up which suit Lorenzo's Yamaha better than Stoner's Honda - and one of them is next weekend at Silverstone.
Someone else who must be looking forward to Silverstone is Cal Crutchlow, after another great seventh-place finish.
I don't want to build him up too much as we did that a few years ago with James Toseland and he jumped off at the first corner of the British Grand Prix, but Cal has won at Silverstone before in Superbikes and must know the place better than any of the rest of them.
He's doing superbly so far in his debut year, but then so did James and he had a shocker of a second year, so Cal's got to make sure he avoids a repeat of that.
He's got to make sure he continues his upward climb through the winter months and doesn't allow himself to get knocked back.
Cal replaced another Superbikes graduate at the Tech 3 Yamaha team, Ben Spies, who came third in Sunday's race.
But so far Cal has done everything you could ask of him, and when the 1000cc bikes come back into MotoGP next year, then having come up the Superbike route will be even more of an advantage. (Source: BBC)
