Lucky you.

Dovi will have a bit to do if he wants to keep that gap at the top tight. Could be a good race.

That was great.

A few different leaders and something happening near the front the whole race.
Well worth watching.

Even the Support races today were great viewing, then Moto3 was an exciting wet event. The Moto2 event was a bit more settled but great viewing and that MotoGP race was exactly what I hoped for.

After leaving the MCR event on Sunday, Buddy, Sweaty and myself had a great day on Waterfall Way and the Oxley and other back roads in between. Still arrived at Walcha in time for Moto 2 and GP.
