island

Came across this recent video from Gypsy Tales podcast. This one with Casey Stoner and he explains his T3 Phillip Island technique and how Valencia t3 was similar, how it came about and how it is done etc If you have not previously, I admit that Gypsy Tales stuff has some very good little...

One of my favourite rounds of the year has arrived, I won't be there this year unfortunately. With the championship decided now hopefully this round can produce some entertainment with a good scrap for the win. Given that Maverick won here last year, this may be the round that Fabio takes his...

When Bautista took the lead I was thinking that was premature, why not sit behind Rea and preserve tires. A little bit special. New bike, never raced before. A new rider in the class. Victory by 15 seconds. Rea said Bautista is not stressing him a bit [during testing]. Edit: Davies looks...

Our first live Motogp this year... going from UK to Philip Island (go big or go home) :D We have 3 corner grandstand tickets - P.I. Ticket office have very kindly offered paddock passes for the Sunday (O.K. they didn't offer, I begged, not expecting to get anywhere). Works out at about £97...

Soo i had an amazing time! Wont spam you all with my selfies or photos haha but if anyone is curious pics are up at www.instagram.com/aussiemotogpfan It was such a great experience - highlights include: 1. met so many riders - pretty much every one that i wanted to meet. selfies to prove haha...

****SOLD***** Am unable to delete the thread Not my ticket! I'm still going haha 1 x Gardner Straight Grand stand 3 day pass for Phillip Island Section D, Row B (seat number will be advised after purchase). $320 (price I paid) As I brought the ticket as a Rider's United Member, it also comes...

No not mine - I'm still going haha I have a Phillip Island ticket that's not required (Gardner straight pass with pitlane walk, free program etc) and I have no idea how or where to advertise it? Hopefully there will be some serious suggestions amongst the smart arse comments haha

So they seem to be doing alright with their times alreay in the low 1.29's at PI and I was pleased to see that Bradley Smith is almost up to his teammate in the timings. I'd like to think that Asparagus will be put where he belongs as the teams support rider by the end of July. :devil:

Ominous. Rea is coming into this reporting a 'flawless' pre-season programme of preparation. It seems that whilst he has been busy optimising his ride, Sykesy has been busting a nut trying to emulate it and adopt a more fluid progressive braking style to suit the ZX10-RR. ...Meantime, Nicky...

Casey tested the Ducati gp17 in sepang on two days and posted the fastest time on first day. Will he test in the Phillip island in the remaining two days since he did not test on day one. Surely he will be a whole second faster than anyone in the grid now. And why there is no transparency in...

Does anyone know if the Phillip Island test this week will have the video pass coverage like the Sepang test did? I have had a quick look through the MotoGP website but couldn't really find anything saying if it was or wasn't going to have the coverage.

The only title race not decided. Zarco is mr consistent. Rins is my guy. Genuinely faster, but inconsistent. He's still in it. Just. This will be the race of the weekend. I want rins to win, but predict Lowes, rins, morbidelli.

Michelin has confirmed the use of 'a completely new compound' and two 'totally new' rear tyres to suit the unique demands of Phillip Island, venue for this weekend's Australian MotoGP. Previous exclusive tyre supplier Bridgestone was memorably caught out by resurfacing at the circuit in...

For me it has to be Michael Dunlops 2013 Superstock lap, he did a 131.1 on a stock Fireblade to see off Kawasaki mounted Gary Johnson and bear in mind at that time only McGuinness, Hutchy, Martin and Cummins had gone quicker and they were on full on Superbikes. :D

Hi All, I currently have a three day pass in one of the Grand stands at Phillip Island and am possibly looking at getting a paddock pass for the Friday and the Saturday. Has anyone here had a paddock pass before at Phillip Island? Did you find it was worth the extra $$? Did you actually...

A new era for World Superbike begins. Some interesting stats and facts about the first Round of the year in Phillip Island to whet your appetite for WorldSBK 2016! How important is winning the first race in the eventual outcome of the Championship? According to the stats, the winner of the...

Kicks off tomorrow. So what are people's predictions? Going to be interesting to see how the Michelins handle the surface, we all know the massive problems Bridgestone encountered in 2013. I also wonder if Jorge will still have the advantage he had in Sepang.

Hi all Any of you guys and gals heading to philip island for the second set of tests, I have 4 passes up for grabs. Pm me for info

Hi everyone :) I'm going to Phillip Island for the first time this year, taking the parents (it's their 30th Anniversary present) and just have a few quick questions as I have never been before; Does anyone know when the paddock passes usually go on sale? Already have grand stand tickets...

Hopefully, everyone had a chance to see the races at Phillip Island this weekend. Best racing in some time, as Haslam and Rea went head-to-head for 44 laps. Van der Mark is already competitive in his first showing, and Honda are more competitive this season. BMW have thrown in the towel. No...
