Phillip Island...the story so far...

...seems to be biblical deluges and geese invasions.
But apart from that it's all very entertaining.

FP1 called off due to rain, new track surface that Michelin have never run on yet and don't have data for, everyone doing short runs to make sure they go direct to Q2 - this could turn out to be a real tyre lottery...

I always watch the full prog when it's live, but FF on catch-up.
But just watched the whole hour of practice and thoroughly enjoyed it because of impending bad weather.

Well, I woke up early to watch the sprint - only for it not to be on Canal+ :angry-cussingblack: :angry-cussingblack: :angry-cussingblack:

It seems the race is on there tomorrow, so I'll be waking up in time and really hoping it actually is on there! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just finished the sprint, actually pleased with the result - part of me thinks that Martin winning this year will make next year more interesting.

Genuinely thought I'd watched Bezzecchi die though, that was nasty.

And Acosta really needs to up his not-crashing game.
