Australian MotoGP

It was wet!
Not just wet but straight off the Southern Ocean freezing cold, blowing a gale and bucketing down WET.
Thursday, Friday and Saturday were almost enough to make the most hardened enthusiast give up and retire, but as Sunday dawned clear and relatively bright, we all stayed on!
The day grew brighter and the racing was dramatic and highly entertaining!
Shame that Marc Marquez crashed out of a commanding lead, he admitted that he had backed off and he rides better when he is running at 110%.
Of course it was a great result for Cal Crutchlow, and the Suzukis impressed again, last to third by Maverick was not too shabby.

Saturday 'Qualifying'!





And that was the driest part of the circuit!

Finished up the DVR re-watch of all 3 races since I was forced to watch F1 at our lovely track here in Austin, TX. Good job Cal and outstanding ride to Vale staring so far back, of course I have to cheer for Nicky even with a one-off ride.

The flaggies and track marshals were the real heroes of the weekend.
