E-mail is a wonderful thing. Last week, I had several short exchanges with photographer Mark Wernham, CW's official MotoGP shooter. Here's how it went between us:

"I go to Spain in a few hours. My flight is at 7 a.m. Yech! Do you need any photos from Catalunya?"

How about a bunch of images for a web gallery?

"I'm here now. Is there any bias you wish for these pics or just keep it race result backward? Looks as though we might have our first three-days-of-sun event for ages, but that would be too easy. I'm sure it will rain at least one day!

Action, pits, beautiful Spanish girls, whatever. Enjoy the sun.

"Pics on their way... Awesome race... Hope the pics tell it like it was."

Enjoy.
