I can't see any thread started so here's one for everyone to post on.

Jorge is back on the bike, Marc has already made a crazy save and Rins is up front after FP1 &2 combined. The comments on the last page of the Phillip Island thread about him having no brakes while his bike burnt down must be the key to his speed.

Flew through KL last night, on the way home from work in Jakarta. Was SO tempted to get off, and re-arrange my flight back to the UK for Sunday night.

Race starting at 0500 in the morning, been pushed back to avoid the rain (hopefully).

Redding was on for a good Q1 there would have been good to see one more lap from him.

I did think it a bit rich when MM gesticulated to AI. Was that on the lap AI was estimated P1?




ETA; just watched it again, MM's gesticulating was more of an apology for being a nugget and not even looking where he was going

Same here, watched moto3, Moto 2 recording finished before the end of the rain and I couldn’t find a repeat on BT sport today. Annoying.
Remember to check your recording times for the race as they have moved everything earlier to avoid the forecast rain!

After Phillip Island I extended the record time on my Virgin box by 1 hour and just got the end of qualifying thankfully.

Looks like everything has moved on BT sport but mine wasn’t recording anything on the revised schedules, so had to go in manually and press record

One of the many advantages of a Dorna Videopass means you can watch every single session at your leisure and not miss anything......

I struggled to pay up for it at the beginning of the year, but I’ll be doing it again next year no question, I’ve watched so much stuff on there and as you say you can just watch it whenever you want.

And one of the many disadvantages is the cost and the commentators and lining the pocket of a company that already makes millions yet charges a lot for coverage you can get elsewhere.
It used to be cheap, funny that.

You didn’t miss much. Didn’t get the battle in the final few laps like we should have. Well done Suzuki. Nice to see you near the top again giving the others something to think about.
