Title: Australian Moto GP Phillip Island (spoilers) Post by: koko64 on October 19, 2023, 04:03:55 AM https://www.crash.net/motogp/news/1038376/1/extreme-weather-forecast-sunday-phillip-island
Title: Re: Australian Moto GP Phillip Island (spoilers) Post by: koko64 on October 19, 2023, 01:23:30 PM This race needs to be moved to early in the season. Autumn in Melbourne has beautiful warm weather and quite stable compared to other times of the year. Warm but not too hot (usually).
The wind is an issue lifting bikes at the crest of the straight. Weather changes over a day/weekend make practice useless for race day in Springtime. It's so frustrating. I've had both hyperthermia and hypothermia at that place! Title: Re: Australian Moto GP Phillip Island (spoilers) Post by: koko64 on October 19, 2023, 11:48:46 PM Schedule change.
Race Sat, sprint Sun (if safe). https://www.crash.net/motogp/news/1038493/1/australian-motogp-switches-saturday-race Title: Re: Australian Moto GP Phillip Island (spoilers) Post by: koko64 on October 20, 2023, 12:28:44 AM https://www.crash.net/motogp/results/1038466/1/australian-motogp-phillip-island-friday-practice-results

I'm happy for Zarco. Title: Re: Australian Moto GP Phillip Island (spoilers) Post by: koko64 on October 21, 2023, 09:01:22 PM It was a goodun'! I'm happy for Zarco. He did the old backflip to celebrate [beer] Title: Re: Australian Moto GP Phillip Island (spoilers) Post by: koko64 on October 21, 2023, 09:02:11 PM The sprint was cancelled.
