Will be interesting for sure. Looks like we will get a rain race on Sunday. I can’t remember a summer in 40years where it had rained more than 2024.
Depending on what areas of Europe you look at, the rainfall for the month of June has been very close to the historical average. Slightly more rain in some places.
The average temperature though is far above average for places like Athens and Rome (7c higher than average) and Barcelona (4c). Amsterdam though is cooler.
Warmer, wetter and wilder weather could be more of a new normal. That would make exciting racing, not so much fun trackside unless you are prepped for rain and heat. I guess Marquez could be given a few years plus on his career if we start having more wet races, and Miller might even stay around for longer.
As for this race I'll be looking at the Oliveira - Fernandez battle and the Moto2 championship. The Garcia - Ogura - Roberts - Aldeguer battle is great for that class. Same with Veijer for Moto3.
