| I was there also, and the first thing that hit me was how quiet it was, I don't know if you have been before Dave, but this is my 3rd time in 4 years, and the crowds were down from my memory, the other big thing was it was sunny, every time I have been previously it's rained at some point, so that threw me a bit.
As for the racing, yes it was awesome, the top 5 fighting it out all of the race, in both races!
The single tyre rule isn't all it's cracked up to be though, apparently Haga/Renegade were denied the tyres he wanted by Ducati Corse, as the championship is too close to call, so first choice on tyres goes to Laconi/Toseland, and after that the remaining Ducati riders get what is left, ultimately a factory team is not going to be beaten by a satellite private team! |
