MotoGP Phillip Island - spoilers, obviously....

Perhaps I was a bit hasty in the assumption of no real damage, but I must point out I had no influence over the decision!  

Hey, now him and George' are in the same boat.
Evens up the playing field and makes 'em both work for their dinner.

If the weather doesnt break, there will be no events today, no FP, no qualy, no support races. The wind would be dangerous cresting over the end of Gardner Straight. If the wind prevails race day it'll be interesting to see if the wings stay or are changed.

Of course its the worst weather in years.   

Showers here at present.
Such a muddy bog they have closed all the car parks to cars. By the time we left wherever you stood you would sink enough for water to flood in.

You blokes camping or hotel/pub?

[Needle99]

I am glad we are not camping. Rented a house.

[koko64]

Id say tents got blown down. The track will probably need a good scrub.

FP3 was a wild session.

MM timed it perfectly on an inter front, slick rear.
Miller right on his heels full slicks.
Nicky 8th!

Rossi 12th, JLo 21st (last), both on merit.

Q1 will be epic, lots of heavy hitters stuck in there.

[koko64]

Moto3 qualy was a race!

[kopfjäger]

That storm hit quick!!

[Needle99]

And sucked.

[kopfjäger]

  I'll bet.

[koko64]

Crusty and George made it through to Q2..

[koko64]

Tyre roulette in Q2 on a drying track with a major rainstorm 10 minutes away!

[kopfjäger]

That was good stuff!! Nicky looked pretty damn strong for not being on a GP bike for awhile.

[Speeddog]

MM crushed 'em.
Hard.
Crusty 2nd, Pol 3rd.
Nicky 7th.

JLo was a make the beast with two backsing rolling chicane. 12th.
