MotoGP Gyroscopic camera

[derby]

It's different.  Cool seeing the lean but I like the stationary camera better.  If we're going to see that used more during the races though, I'd like degree of the angle shown as well.  Seems like they've shown that before..no?

they've been showing the gyrocam+angle indicator all weekend. not sure why they didn't do it in the race.

I liked the rear axle looking back angle with the gyro cam. was pretty darn cool hehe.

^^^ Wat he said.

Without the distraction of the whole earth tilting, you can really focus on how far keeled over the competition is, and it seems easier to see how much they slide as well.

Ah..missed everything else this weekend.  I thought I heard them say something about an angle indicator.  Maybe next race?

I f'n love that gyro camera.  I almost fell out of my seat a coupla times just watching those lean angles.  Stoner's is the make the beast with two backsest though.  His I-almost-crash-on-the-gas-between-every-apex-and-rumble-strip two-wheel slide looks even more nutty with the gyro cam.

Remember those cams they had mounted pointing backwards on the bottom fairing of the Suzukis for a while? It'd be interesting to watch one of those on Casey's bike...especially towards the end of the race.

Is there a link to that Spidey?  MotoGP.com

I think I saw it on Speed, both in qualifying and during the race.
