That was pretty decent, and a good laugh too.

Would be good to see BSB and WSB follow suit as well.

Can it still be viewed or was it live only

Should still be up there to view I'd imagine? If you search for "Virtual Moto GP' I'd imagine it would bring it up.

you can still watch it, need to go in a couple of minutes to get past the intro graphic

The actual race is about 20 mins in I think. There’s a time stamp in the comments.

I thought it was terrible. Virtual stuff like this when they’re clicking buttons on a plastic controller is rubbish. Until they get them on one of those bike simulator things and race that way it won’t work.

Having said that it was interesting to see how focussed the riders were and how even a bit of fun like this gets very competitive.

Terrible.

But interesting.
And fun too?

Which was it?

It was a terrible race.

It was interesting to watch the riders. You could see them sitting at home pressing buttons on the plastic controller thing

It was supposed to be a bit of fun for them.

Maybe you should see if you can have some home schooling in comprehension.

The last couple of nights it has spurred a few of us club and BSB racers to get involved. Been great fun, making the best of the situation.

It wasn't supposed to be a realistic alternative to an actual race.

And also a bit of fun for those watching.

I know what it was supposed to be and what it wasn’t supposed to be. It didn’t hit the mark on any count from my perspective.

Good fun watching, and the riders, always competitive under the laughing.

Anyone watch yesterdays race ?

Great to see the difference in the racers gaming style from sitting bolt upright to vinales sitting on the edge of the seat and leaning around the corners .
