That was a proper weather induced crashfest! Luckily noone with severe injuries.
Marc now has to go through Q1. If he's fit enough, that shouldn't be an issue.
Feel for Miller. One onethousands of a second from a straight Q2. Aprilias all on the money.
Will be interesting to see how the weather changes overnight.
Tbh, the Ralf-Waldmann-Kurve is usually only an issue on Friday and as the track gets rubbered in there are close to zero crashes on Saturday on Sunday.That was a proper weather induced crashfest! Luckily noone with severe injuries.
High 20s with a chance of t-storms in the afternoon tomorrow. No more than 20 on Sunday.What's the weather forecast?
I'd second what @ApriliaRS250 said, the Ankerberg is a big campground and a giant week-long party right on the other side of the road from the track.Where do you recommend to stay, if visiting this track?
And no rain as of right now.No more than 20 on Sunday.
Cheers guys, much appreciated!As far as hotels go, I don't really know. We're not exactly a hub for tourism.
As much as i would like to see marquez win again i have a bad feeling that he is only one highside away from ending his stunning career. Today was not that day and he‘ll live to see another race
Acosta has faded and returned to the front at previous times in his career. I predicted that he would take longer to adapt to MotoGP than he initially did. I have faith that even if he falls back a bit, he's going to bounce back.Marc seems slightly desperate now that the 24's are pulling away from last year's bike. He needs to learn to let go, now that he's in the 2nd half of his career.
Regarding the sessions overall, it was nice to see Aprilia back towards the front. Bad weather is forecast on Saturday so Oliveira could be in good shape. If Mav has a decent qualifying, and the weather stays clear on Sunday, he could do well. The Ducati frontrunners will obviously be somewhere near the front. KTM? Not sure what's going on with them. Acosta is fading. Binder and Miller are doing nothing, though Jack looks a little sharper this weekend. I wonder what's going through Mav's and Enea's minds.
Last year Miller was the only rider to get within the 8 Ducati's last year so perhaps this circuit suits Miller. I've read somewhere that the KTM carbon frame resulted in less front end feel so if that is the case then that would contribute to inconsistencyMarc seems slightly desperate now that the 24's are pulling away from last year's bike.

Looking at the list of people in Q1, I can't see anyone that I would expect to cause Marc problems. And, MM93 has been through Q1 and ended up on pole before. So, it depends on his fitness.
