I live pretty near the circuit and it's been raining on an off for the last few days. Currently hammering it down and not set to ease off until at least tomorrow, but with rain forcast for the whole weekend. Should be interesting, though not much looking forward to sitting in the rain all day. And to think last year it was around 25ºC in the sunshine....

I’m flying over tomorrow morning for the race. Typical that the weather is going to be rubbish!

Looks like FP2 has been red flagged too after Zarco's fall.

My mrs has just sent me a video of Valencia Centre and it's starting to flood pretty badly. Plan to leave work in 30 mins and imagine it's going to be chaos.

Goddard, Bayliss, and a number of others have done the same.

I remember Ryder and Keith commentating on Goddard crashing at Donington, I think onto the back straight, and the replay showed him banging his shoulder into the fence, Huewen; "he's putting his shoulder back in"

Tough bds theese guys

Who'da thunk it in Moto3.

Can Oncu, 15. Special dispensation to ride as he's too young and he's not even Spanish. Look out Marquez.

I thought 15 was permissible no?

Its Spain too so they'll let him have the bubbly too

Seriously though what a ledge, made them all look a bit silly didn't he.

Don't forget though in wet dodgy conditions we've quite often seen fluke wins thru all the classes , then when you get back to dry races they no longer have the pace .
